The Biden administration is awarding $623 million in grants to states, local governments, and tribes to establish an electric vehicle charging network nationwide. This initiative aligns with the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, which allocated $7.5 billion to fulfill President Biden's aim of constructing 500,000 public chargers by 2030. Additionally, specific grants, such as the $4.8 million for electric vehicle charging expansion in Durham and nearly $15 million for Illinois, demonstrate the law's impact at the local level.
