Downstate NEVI DCFC Program (PON 5866)

Due Date:  03/18/2025  (Round 1)

Description

NYSERDA seeks proposals to develop Direct Current Fast Charging (DCFC) Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE) along Alternative Fuel Corridors (AFCs) in New York State south of I-84 using up to $28.5 million of the federal formula funding under the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) program. This program is intended to reduce the cost of purchasing and installing DCFC EVSE for use in New York State and ultimately accelerate electric vehicle (EV) adoption.

Proposers are invited to apply for Program Opportunity Notice (PON) 5866 funding to develop one Direct Current Fast Charging Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (DCFC EVSE) per proposal at site location(s) within one travel mile of designated Alternative Fuel Corridors (AFCs) in downstate New York. Proposers may submit more than one proposal, but no more than four (4) proposals per sub-region and no more than eight (8) proposals total. The three sub-regions, further defined in the map attached to the bid summary, are as follows: New York City, Long Island, and Lower Hudson Valley. Sites located at least five miles from other existing or planned DCFC sites will be favored in evaluation.   

To be eligible, each site included in the proposal must accommodate simultaneous charging for at least four vehicles at a minimum of 150 kW and offer a total site delivery capacity of 600 kW or more. All EVSE ports must have CCS connectors, but proposers are strongly encouraged to also offer J3400 connectors on some or all EVSE. Sites with greater than four ports must still provide simultaneous charging of at least 150 kW to each port.


NYSERDA will host two optional webinars for potential proposers on Wednesday, January 15 from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. as well as Wednesday, February 12 from 3:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. ET.
