State and Local Electric Vehicle (EV) Charging Station Requirements

A state or local agency may own, operate, manage, or lease Level 1, Level 2, and direct current (DC) fast chargers for fleet use. State or local agencies may only own, operate, manage, or lease publicly available EV chargers if they are Level 1 or Level 2 and free to use.

Additionally, a state or local agency may authorize eligible electric providers to own and operate a publicly available Level 1, Level 2, or DC fast charger on government property. Additional requirements apply.
