    Alternative Fuel Corridor (AFC) Funding Rounds

    PennDOT completed three funding rounds over the course of 2023 and 2024 focused on identifying charging station projects to fill gaps along Pennsylvania’s Alternative Fuels Corridors. A total of 91 active NEVI projects in 43 counties are now in varying stages of implementation. PennDOT’s Active NEVI Awards Tracker displays the real-time status of these projects. PennDOT is now focused on receiving “Fully Built Out” status from the Federal Highway Administration so PennDOT can use remaining NEVI funds for a larger variety of charging station project types. For more information on PennDOT’s plans to invest remaining NEVI funds please visit the About PA NEVI Plan page.

    Please see below for more information about PennDOT’s three prior funding rounds focused on Alternative Fuel Corridor project deployments.
