California's share will be $384 million over 5 years. This map was developed to help prospective applicants and interested parties identify eligible areas for infrastructure deployment.<p style='margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; box-sizing:border-box; padding:0px; color:rgb(5, 5, 5); font-family:"Avenir Next", "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif, "PingFang SC", "Microsoft YaHei", "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif;'> <p style='margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; box-sizing:border-box; padding:0px; color:rgb(5, 5, 5); font-family:"Avenir Next", "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif, "PingFang SC", "Microsoft YaHei", "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif;'>Instructions<p style='margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; font-family:"Avenir Next", "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif, "PingFang SC", "Microsoft YaHei", "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif; box-sizing:border-box; padding:0px; color:rgb(5, 5, 5);'>Viewers can display Alternative Fuel Corridors, NEVI 2 (GFO-24-606) corridor groups and corridor segments, NEVI 1 (GFO-23-601) corridor groups, electric vehicle (EV) charging stations, Tribal lands, California-designated low-income or disadvantaged communities, metropolitan planning organizations, regional transportation planning agencies, California state legislative districts, counties, Caltrans districts, utility districts, and congressional districts in this interactive map. The map initially displays the corridor groups and corridor segments eligible for California's Round 2 NEVI solicitation. Viewers can toggle individual layers on and off using the map layers menu located to the right of the map. Some layers are organized into groups; viewers can toggle all layers within a group or select specific ones. The legend to the left of the map will show the layers that have been turned on. There is a search tool to the right of the map that enables viewers to type in an address and locate the address on the map. A basemap selector allows viewers to view road detail. Additional information on the map can be found under the information icon. Viewers can download the map files by clicking on the Data and Supplemental Links icon. Map layers include:<ul><li>An Alternative Fuel Corridors layer that shows designated corridors for California's NEVI funding program. Users can click on a corridor segment to view the start and end of each corridor. When selected, a pop-up window will appear that shows the corridor name and description.</li><li>A NEVI 2 (GFO-24-606) corridor groups layer shows corridor groups eligible for Round 2 of California's NEVI funding program. Note that this layer is only visible when the Alternative Fuels Corridors layer is turned off.</li><li>NEVI 2 (GFO-24-606) corridor group labels for enhanced accessibility. Note that labels are only visible at certain ranges (zoom in and out to view labels) and when the Alternative Fuels Corridors layer is turned off. </li><li>NEVI 2 (GFO-24-606) corridor segment labels for enhanced accessibility. Note that labels are only visible at certain ranges (zoom in and out to view labels) and when the Alternative Fuels Corridors layer is turned off. </li><li>A NEVI 1 (GFO-23-601) corridor groups layer that shows corridor groups eligible for Round 1 of California's NEVI funding program. Note that this layer is only visible when the Alternative Fuels Corridors layer is turned off.</li><li>A layer showing the locations of EV charging stations awarded through Round 1 of California's NEVI funding program that are planned for deployment.</li><li> A layer showing California-designated disadvantaged or low-income communities. </li><li> A layer showing California Federally Recognized Tribal Lands. </li><li> A layer showing Metropolitan Planning Organizations. </li><li> A layer showing Regional Transportation Planning Agencies. </li><li> A layer showing California State Senate Districts. </li><li> A layer showing California State Assembly Districts. </li><li> A layer showing California Counties. </li><li>EV charging stations layers (existing DC fast charging stations that are located within one mile of a NEVI-eligible corridor offramp). One layer shows locations of EV charging stations with DC fast charging capabilities that meet the NEVI power level and four-port minimum requirement and could likely become part of the NEVI network if these stations became compliant with other NEVI program requirements such as data reporting. The other layer shows DC fast charging stations that do not meet NEVI power-level or port count requirements but could be upgraded to be NEVI-compliant. Users can click on EV charging stations and a pop-up window will appear with more information on the station (i.e., station address, total port count, minimum NEVI standard, etc.). These data were last updated in March 2024. Please refer to the Department of Energy's Alternative Fuels Data Center and PlugShare for up-to-date existing and planned DC fast charger site information. </li><li> A layer showing Caltrans Districts. </li><li> A layer showing Electric Utilities (IOUs and POUs). </li><li>A layer showing California Congressional Districts. </li></ul><p style='margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; box-sizing:border-box; padding:0px; color:rgb(5, 5, 5); font-family:"Avenir Next", "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif, "PingFang SC", "Microsoft YaHei", "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif;'>Background<p style='margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; box-sizing:border-box; padding:0px; color:rgb(5, 5, 5); font-family:"Avenir Next", "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif, "PingFang SC", "Microsoft YaHei", "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif;'>The $5 billion NEVI Program is part of the $1.2 trillion Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) signed into law by President Biden in November 2021. IIJA commits significant federal funding to clean transportation and energy programs throughout the U.S. to reduce climate changing greenhouse gas emissions. Caltrans is the designated lead agency for NEVI. The CEC is their designated state energy partner. Caltrans and the CEC have partnered to create California's Deployment Plan for the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Program that describes how the state plans to allocate its $384 million share of federal NEVI funds to build out a network of modern, high-powered DC fast chargers along federally designated Alternative Fuel Corridors throughout California. California's latest NEVI Deployment Plan was submitted to the Joint Office of Energy and Transportation on August 1, 2023 and approved on September 29, 2023. The Plans must be updated each year over 5 years.<p style='margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; box-sizing:border-box; padding:0px; color:rgb(5, 5, 5); font-family:"Avenir Next", "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif, "PingFang SC", "Microsoft YaHei", "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif;'> <p style='margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; box-sizing:border-box; padding:0px; color:rgb(5, 5, 5); font-family:"Avenir Next", "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif, "PingFang SC", "Microsoft YaHei", "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif;'>NEVI funds must be used initially on federally-designated Alternative Fuel Corridors (shown on the map).<p style='margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; box-sizing:border-box; padding:0px; color:rgb(5, 5, 5); font-family:"Avenir Next", "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif, "PingFang SC", "Microsoft YaHei", "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif;'> <p style='margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; box-sizing:border-box; padding:0px; color:rgb(5, 5, 5); font-family:"Avenir Next", "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif, "PingFang SC", "Microsoft YaHei", "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif;'>Each NEVI-funded DC fast charge station will have a minimum of four 150 kW Combined Charging System (CCS) connectors.
