18 new EV charging stations planned on major highways using federal funds.

The Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) plans to build 18 new EV charging stations on major highways like I-40 and I-17, using federal funds from the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Program (NEVI). The privately owned and operated stations will be installed in existing gas stations, travel centers, and hotels, and construction is expected to take a year, with some stations opening by late 2025. The aim is to reduce range anxiety and encourage more people to switch to electric vehicles.
