Delaware, EPA announce .3-million electric vehicle charging initiative along I-95  – Charged EVs


The state of Delaware has received $14.3 million in federal grants to install medium- and heavy-duty EV charging stations along the portion of Interstate 95 that is within its borders to improve air quality and expand alternative fuel infrastructure.

The creation of electric vehicle infrastructure along I-95 is part of an initiative organized by the Clean Corridor Coalition, a project to develop a regional approach to decreasing emissions from Maryland to Connecticut. 

State leaders recently gathered to celebrate the receipt of federal funding for the project at the Biden Welcome Center, which was named after then-Senator Joe Biden in 2018, along a stretch of highway named for another president, John F. Kennedy. 

“This grant is a huge step forward for Delaware. By adding charging stations along I-95, we’re helping reduce pollution and bettering the air quality, while also supporting the freight industry, two things we all rely on,” Majeski said. “We are excited to work with our neighboring states and look forward to seeing the benefits of this project.” 

The I-95 corridor, one of the most heavily-trafficked freight routes in the nation, connects nine states in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeastern United States.
