As part of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) Formula Program (Program) intends to make significant investments in electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure that will put the United States on a path to a nationwide network of 500,000 EV chargers by 2030 and ensure a convenient, reliable, affordable, and equitable charging experience for all users. New Hampshire will receive more than $17 million over the next five years to create an EV charging network throughout the State. The New Hampshire Department of Transportation's (NHDOT) vision is to strategically deploy an interconnected and equitable network of public electric vehicle charging infrastructure to encourage electric vehicle travel, maintain economic competitiveness, and stimulate public-private sector collaboration in the State of New Hampshire. NHDOT expects to award as many grants as possible with the available funding for Round 1 with no minimum or maximum award size per site. The State reserves the right to cancel or extend the RFP process at any time. The State also reserves the right to reject any and all submissions in response to this RFP and to waive formalities if doing so is in the best interest of the State of New Hampshire. NHDOT is not obligated to award all these funds to Phase 1 projects.
