(Salem, OR) -- The State of Oregon will allocate more money to build charging stations for electric vehicles. Under the next round of funding for the "Our Community Charging Rebates Program," ODOT will allocate $2.5 million to businesses, nonprofits, Tribes, public agencies and apartment complexes to purchase and install Level-2 electric vehicle charging stations. In the first round, last year, ODOT provided nearly $2 million to 94 projects in 23 counties. Most of the projects were in areas considered rural or disadvantaged.
