Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) is asking for proposals from entities to design, build and operate EV charging infrastructure along specified state roads as part of the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) Program. The NEVI program provides funding for the deployment of publicly accessible EV chargers nationwide along designated alternative fuel corridors (AFC’s).

Arizona has designated all of it’s interstate highways as well as several state roads as AFC’s. This is the second request for proposals from ADOT for the NEVI program and is for charging stations at 32 locations along designated state roads. A detailed map of these locations is included in the Request for Proposals. The first request was sent out last year and resulted in conditional NEVI awards for 18 sites along Arizona’s designated interstates, I-10, I-8, I-40, I-17 and I-19.

All awarded stations will be privately owned and operated, with federal funds covering up to 80% and the private developer covering a minimum of 20% of the eligible project costs. No state funds will be involved in the construction of these stations.

More about the program can be found on the Arizona Electric Vehicle Program page.
