The U.S. Transportation Department (USDOT) on Thursday proposed minimum standards and requirements for electric vehicle (EV) charging projects funded under a $5 billion government program.
The rules would require government-funded EV charging stations to use DC Fast Chargers and have at least four ports capable of simultaneously charging four EVs and each must be at or above 150 kW.
Charging stations would also bar charging stations from requiring a membership to use them. By 2030, President Joe Biden wants 50% of all new vehicles sold to be electric or plug-in hybrid electric models and 500,000 new EV charging stations.
