More Than 100 New Fast EV Chargers Coming To Georgia - CleanTechnica

The Georgia Department of Transportation (Georgia DOT) announced the installation of over 100 new fast electric vehicle (EV) charger ports across 26 new stations statewide, with many located in rural areas. This expansion is funded by the second round of the federal National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) Program, part of the Biden administration's efforts to enhance EV infrastructure. Each station will operate 24/7 and feature four fast-charging ports, significantly reducing charging times compared to slower Level 2 chargers. Fast chargers can provide a substantial charge in as little as 10 minutes to about an hour, aligning well with typical breaks during road trips. Georgia currently ranks among the top 10 to 12 states in the U.S. for EV registrations, with over 90,000 registered EVs, trailing only Texas, Florida, and Virginia in the southern region. The expansion of public fast chargers aims to alleviate "range anxiety"—the concern about running out of charge—by decreasing the distance between charging
