The California Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Project (CALeVIP) offers incentives for purchasing and installing electric vehicle charging infrastructure at sites throughout the state of California that are accessible to the public. Funding will be awarded on a first-come, first-served basis to ready-to-build projects (issued permit and final utility service design). Incentives are available for project sites across California. Incentives can cover up to 100% of total approved costs, capped at $100,000 per charging port. Eligible sites must be available to the public.
