February 6, 2025, NEVI Program Update
On February 6, KDOT received notice from FHWA concerning the current and future status of NEVI Program funding. As a result of DOT Order 2100.7 titled “Ensuring Reliance Upon Sound Economic Analysis in Department of Transportation Policies, Programs, and Activities,” the NEVI program is undergoing significant review. With new program guidance pending, the following changes are immediately in effect:
- All State Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Deployment Plans, for all fiscal years, are suspended.
- New obligations of funding are suspended.
- Reimbursement of existing obligations will continue.
Updated NEVI Formula Program Guidance is expected to be available for public comment in Spring 2025. Following the public comment period, final guidance will be provided. KDOT understands you may have questions about how this impacts EV charging in Kansas. Please reach out to the Charge Up Kansas team for questions.
