New York Department of Public Service staff recommended a 58% funding increase for the state’s EV Make-Ready Program for electric vehicle infrastructure.

HECO said last week that it is accepting applications for a three-year pilot program aimed at reducing upfront installation costs for EV charging stations.

State regulators OK'd HECO’s $4.98 million pilot to install EV charging infrastructure across the state in a bid to incentivize investment in charging ports.
