Last Update: June 5, 2026
Latest change: The program page now presents Recharge+ branding and refreshed eligibility, application, and funding details for charging infrastructure projects.
Charge+ updated to Recharge+
The program page has been refreshed from Charge+ to Recharge+, with updated branding, wording, and presentation throughout. The content now emphasizes Recharge+ for private-sector members and partners, public-sector collaborators, and charging infrastructure for fleets, workplaces, and public places. Several program details were rewritten or replaced, including eligibility language, eligible infrastructure requirements, funding presentation, and the application process section. The timing and step-by-step application information appear less visible in the new version, so those details should be reviewed carefully before using the page as the current source of record.
