EV Infrastructure

NYPA supports the transition to electric vehicles. We can help you plan, build and develop your electric vehicle fleet infrastructure.

Overview WHY NYPA Services Case Studies FAQs & Eligibility

NYPA is your partner to help transition to electric vehicles. We evaluate, plan, and lead the implementation of EV infrastructure.

NYPA guides state agencies, local governments, and K-12 school districts through the complex process of electrifying your fleet. We work with you to develop your fleet infrastructure—starting with site assessment, cost-benefit analysis, route planning, contracting and procurement – all the way to the management of electrical systems and the implementation of charging stations.

We can help you look at electric vehicles as part of your overall clean energy strategy plan, and as a way to meet your sustainability goals.

We specialize in developing charging infrastructure (for DC fast charging (DCFC) and large-scale Level 2 (L2) projects) contributing to New York State’s clean energy goals.

Rochester Regional Transit Service

With the NYPA team behind them, Rochester has taken its first step towards a zero-emission bus fleet

When Rochester Regional Transit Service (RTS) committed to electric buses, they turned to NYPA to support the engineering and construction services associated with charging their fleet. RTS replaced 10-diesel powered buses with zero-emission electric buses, and NYPA’s eMobility team helped RTS design and install Direct Current (DC) charging stations to support the adoption of these EVs.

This is the first part of a multi-phase plan, and RTS has committed to a goal of being 100 percent zero-emission by 2035.

The Result: RTS reduced greenhouse emissions - with energy savings of almost $200,000 per bus over its 12-year service life.

FAQs & Eligibility

I have fleet vehicles that I would like to electrify. Can NYPA help me?

NYPA helps set up the infrastructure required to switch your vehicles from gas or diesel to electric. We create a plan for you, identify any grants and incentives, advise you on the site, and install charging stations. We help with the infrastructure and planning required to adopt electric vehicles at your location.

We do not purchase the actual electric vehicles, but can help coordinate with NYSERDA, who administers rebate and incentive programs for electric vehicles.

I am a business. Can you help me with electric vehicle charging projects at my location? How large or small are the projects that you help with?

Yes. NYPA can provide electric vehicle infrastructure services to our business and economic development customers.

The NYPA team can assist with a range of advisory and implementation services from master planning to electrical services and installation of chargers and we are well positioned to assist customers with the electrification of entire fleets of multiple vehicles, such as those for transit or delivery.

Can you help me identify NY State grants and incentives for electric vehicles?

Yes. NYPA’s eMobility team will help to identify any applicable grants and incentives. These grants and incentives include the NYSERDA Truck Voucher Program. There are also significant incentives available to municipalities from the NYS DEC to install public charging stations.

Does fleet electrification count towards Clean Energy Communities or BuildSmart NY Goals?

Clean Fleets and Municipal Clean Fleets Inventory are considered high impact actions, and municipalities can receive up to 8700 points towards their Clean Energy Community designation.

BuildSmart 2025 does not have any defined goals specific to EVs – but it does specify that electricity usage associated with EV charging is exempt from reporting.

I am not a business owner, and am not a government entity. I am not looking for infrastructure services. I am looking for information about the public charging station network that NYPA is building for drivers up and down the state of New York.

NYPA’s Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Services described here are for government entities and businesses that are looking to electrify their fleet. For information about EVolve, a separate initiative where NYPA is building a public charging network up and down New York State, review the Evolve site to learn more.

I am interested in your electric vehicle infrastructure services. How do I contact you?

I represent a local government. Can you install Electric Vehicle (EV) charging stations in my community. Can you help me electrify my fleet?

Yes. Our EV infrastructure team supports governmental and state agency entities including transportation agencies with their EV infrastructure needs. We can help you electrify your municipal or state agency fleet.

There are incentives available to municipalities from the NYS DEC to install public charging stations. By installing electric vehicle charging stations, municipalities are able to attract residents and visitors to their downtown commercial district, while improving local air quality and reducing greenhouse gases. Municipalities can also team with NYPA to add electric vehicle charging stations to support their municipal fleet vehicles.

For communities, NYPA ‘s EVolve NY team is leading the deployment of a network of public charging stations across New York State. We review charging station locations based on a number of factors including safety, network attractiveness, and location. We are happy to review your site. Visit Evolveny.nypa.gov to learn more.

I understand that NYPA’s EVolveNY team is building a network of public chargers across New York State. Where can I learn more about how to access these chargers?
