As of February 2022, the state will receive [$3.38 million this year](https://www.whitehouse.senate.gov/news/release/ri-delegation-delivers-338-million-to-boost-ris-electric-vehicle-charging-infrastructure) to build out its EV charging infrastructure as part of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. As of last December, Rhode Island had 235 fully operational public charging stations, 209 public Level 2 charging stations, and 26 public DCFC stations. This investment will boost Rhode Island’s charging capacity while also creating jobs and meeting the state’s clean energy goals. This summer, Rhode Island has plans to roll out a new version of the six-year-old program [DRIVE*EV*](https://www.providencejournal.com/story/news/2022/03/14/ri-offers-electric-car-rebate-driveev/7037476001/) to encourage EVs in the state. The program is supported with a $1.25 million funding commitment. Below is a list of the current electric vehicle charging station incentive programs in Rhode Island.  ### Electric Vehicle (EV) Charging Station Incentive – National Grid National Grid offers its commercial customers rebates of up to 100% of installation costs of Level 2 or DCFC stations at workplaces, businesses, multi-unit dwellings, universities, and medical campuses. Learn more [here](https://www.nationalgridus.com/RI-Business/Energy-Saving-Programs/Electric-Vehicle-Charging-Station-Program).  ### Electrify RI – Electric Vehicle Charging Station Incentive Program *\*As of July 12 2021, the program is fully subscribed and* [*funds are no longer available*](https://energy.ri.gov/transportation/electric-vehicles/electrify-ri)*.* This $1.4 million incentive program was created by the Rhode Island Office of Energy Resources (OER) to help fund the installation of Level 2 and DCFC charging stations at workplaces, multi-unit dwellings, state and local government properties, and publicly accessible locations.   ##### Julia Segal Share the Love [mailto:?subject=Rhode%20Island%20EV%20Charging%20Station%20Incentives%20-%20Sona%20Energy&body=https%3A%2F%2Fsonaenergy.com%2Fnews%2Fnews%2Frhode-island-ev-charging-station-incentives](mailto:?subject=Rhode%20Island%20EV%20Charging%20Station%20Incentives%20-%20Sona%20Energy&body=https%3A%2F%2Fsonaenergy.com%2Fnews%2Fnews%2Frhode-island-ev-charging-station-incentives) You May Like These ## Related Articles ![](https://sonaenergy.com/hs-fs/hubfs/HQ-3.png?width=700&name=HQ-3.png) Energy Efficiency ### [Aeroseal](https://sonaenergy.com/news/podcast/aeroseal) Listen to Episode Four here!
