Convenient and reliable EV charging options in all 50 states are providing more people than ever with the freedom to travel using electric mobility. The national network is well ahead of schedule to meet a national goal of 500,000 chargers by 2030.

The $7.5 billion figure refers to the total amount allocated through the 2021 law to build a network of charging stations across the U.S., not the amount that has already been spent. There are currently 214 operational chargers in 12 states that have been funded through the law, with 24,800 projects underway across the country, according to the Federal Highway Administration.

Anyone knows the Federal government doesn't actually build the EV Chargers they award tax subsidies or tax credits to private companies. Just like defense contractors or any private business they get handouts from the government.
