Duke Energy provides residential customers a one-time credit up to $1,133 per charger to help cover the costs of preparing a home for an electric vehicle charger. Acceptable upgrades include new electric plug-in outlets for a garage, electrical wiring improvements and other required electrical upgrades to support Level 2 or higher EV chargers. *See link for details and eligibility.

The Kentucky Energy and Environment Cabinet has issued a funding call for applications for Level 2 charging infrastructure for local, state, and federal government agencies in the state. See link for application materials and details.

The EPA Office of Transportation and Air Quality (OTAQ) is issuing this funding opportunity to solicit applications from eligible entities to help ports nationwide transition to zero-emission (ZE) operations under the EPA’s Clean Ports Program. The EPA’s Clean Ports Program will fund ZE port equipment and infrastructure to reduce mobile source emissions (criteria pollutants, air toxics, and/or greenhouse gases) at United States ports, delivering cleaner air for communities across the country. The Clean Ports Program will also fund climate and air quality planning activities as part of a separate NOFO – including emissions inventories, strategy analysis, community engagement, and resiliency measure identification – that will build the capacity of port stakeholders to continue to reduce pollution and transition to ZE operations over time.
