National Alternative Fuels Corridors
The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) has designated national plug-in electric vehicle charging and hydrogen, propane, and natural gas fueling corridors in strategic locations along major highways to improve the mobility of alternative fuel vehicles. To designate the corridors, DOT solicited nominations from state and local officials and worked with industry stakeholders. Within five years of the establishment of the corridors, and every five years thereafter, DOT will update and redesignate the corridors. During the designation and redesignation process, DOT will issue a report identifying charging and fueling infrastructure, analyzing standardization needs for fuel providers and purchasers, and reestablishing the goal of achieving strategic deployment of fueling infrastructure in the designated corridors by the end of 2020. For more information, see the DOT alternative fuel corridors page. (Reference Public Law 114-94)
