Under this program, the agency will disperse nearly $5 million total in funding on a first-come, first-serve basis. The stations must be up and running within two years of receiving a grant.

 

Businesses and nonprofits are eligible to get up to 50% of costs, or $75,000, reimbursed for buying and installing charging stations.

Non-state government entities do not have a limit.
