The Trump administration has taken significant steps to halt the national electric vehicle (EV) charging programs, ordering states to pause their efforts in installing EV chargers and placing billions in funding on hold. This sweeping move includes the cancellation of the federal National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) program and jeopardizes critical grants for EV projects, such as the $48.6 million EPA grant. As a result, installations of EV charging stations across various states are currently suspended, leading to uncertainty about the future of public EV charging infrastructure. Analysts express concern that these actions could stall the growth of the electric vehicle market in the U.S. and shift towards privatization of charging services.
