This report provides seven key recommendations for National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure state program leads based on applicant feedback from the first round of NEVI awards. The report’s findings are based on a series of in-depth interviews with 10 electric vehicle service providers (EVSP) and site hosts who applied for funding, alongside additional interviews with state program administrators and subject matter experts regarding the program. In the interest of soliciting candid responses from interviewees, the names of specific EVSPs, site hosts, and state NEVI programs and their representatives are omitted here. The recommendations provide states with suggestions on how to improve the next round of NEVI solicitations to enhance proposal quality, streamline application reviews, and spur the deployment of NEVI stations. This perspective equips states with actionable items to incorporate into their stakeholder engagement strategies, Requests for Proposals, contracting language, and overall program implementation.
