FHWA Seeks Comments on Proposed EV Charger Waiver Modification

FHWA is seeking public comment on whether to modify the existing EV Charger waiver to potentially increase the domestic content threshold from 55% to up to 100% for EV chargers used in Federal-aid highway projects. The current waiver established a 55% domestic content requirement for EV chargers manufactured on or after July 1, 2024. FHWA is reconsidering whether the current waiver terms remain in the public interest and may modify, continue, or discontinue the waiver following the comment period. Comment deadline is March 16, 2026.
