HR 6547.pdf

The proposed bill, H.R. 6546, aims to establish a Wireless Electric Vehicle Charging Grant Program to promote the adoption of electric vehicles and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The program would provide grants to eligible entities, such as state and local governments, transit agencies, and special purpose districts, to construct, install, or improve wireless charging infrastructure for electric vehicles. The bill finds that electric vehicles are crucial to reducing emissions and combating climate change, and that wireless charging can help address range anxiety and make electric vehicles more accessible. The Secretary of Transportation would be responsible for administering the program, publishing annual progress reports, and providing technical assistance to grant recipients.
