The Kansas Department of Transportation has awarded $2 million to install electric vehicle charging stations.

KDOT received 32 project proposals seeking to use $2 million of the state’s allocation of Volkswagen Mitigation Trust funds dedicated to the installation of Direct Current Fast Charging stations. KDOT had identified 12 priority locations for these funds to improve public access to charging stations along some of the state's most traveled highways. Staff from KDOT, the Kansas Department of Health & Environment, and a team of consultants evaluated each project proposal and made selections based on criteria provided in a Request for Proposals announced in October 2021.
