Connecticut has received approval for its plan submitted to the U.S. Department of Transportation seeking $52.5 million over five years to build electric vehicle chargers across the state. The state will receive $7.7 million in fiscal year 2022 and additional funding in 2023 under the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Formula Program, Gov. Ned Lamont announced. The funding is part of President Joe Biden’s Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. Phase one of Connecticut’s plan focuses on building up to 10 locations consisting of at least four individual fast chargers along state highways. The state Department of Transportation plans to release details by early 2023. As of this July, there were more than 25,000 electric vehicles registered in Connecticut.
