TEI: Where to Get Funding for EV Charging

Demand for EVs continues to grow, signaling need for reliable charging infrastructure.

November 07, 2025

Despite recent news indicating a possible slowdown in vehicle electrification, the data is clear that electric vehicles will continue to gain ground, although at a slower than anticipated rate. This means that the demand for reliable charging infrastructure will also continue to grow.

The Transportation Energy Institute’s (TEI) latest whitepaper, EV Charging Infrastructure Funding, developed by the TEI Electric Vehicle Council, offers a comprehensive analysis of the diverse funding mechanisms available through government agencies and utilities to accelerate the deployment of electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure across the United States.

“For those developing funding programs, the EV Council provides strategic recommendations for streamlining incentive programs and grant application processes, based upon the real-world experiences of those who have participated in such programs,” states John Eichberger, TEI’s executive director. “Designed to equip stakeholders with actionable insights, this whitepaper serves as a valuable resource for navigating the evolving landscape of EV infrastructure funding.”

Insights from the whitepaper include:

  • Federal and state incentives
  • Utility programs and tax credits
  • ROI strategies for public charging
  • Updates on the NEVI program and federal guidance

Whether you're a site host, investor or policymaker, this resource will help you navigate the complexities of EV infrastructure development and make informed decisions in a shifting regulatory environment.
