NC Clean Energy Technology Center (NCCETC) identifies the latest trends in the policy of electric vehicles in its quarterly “50 States of Electric Vehicles”.
Legal legislators asked reliability standards last quarter for chargers in the United States in the United States, a top trend de NCCETC identified in its quarterly report, “50 states of electric vehicles: Q2 2025.”
The report found three trends in actions of electric vehicles taken in the second quarter of 2025: 1) policy makers who pursue technical and reliability requirements for charging stations; 2) utilities that implement new make-ready stimuli for charging electric vehicles; and 3) utilities focused on pilot program -extensions.
“As charging stations occur more often, a common care for states is the reliability of chargers for customers to use,” said Rebekah de la Mora, senior policy analyst at NCCETC. “To this end, policymakers strive for minimum standards and requirements for chargers to satisfy, whether they are technical standards, license requirements or reliability lines.”
NCCETC said that the most five striking developments of the electric vehicle policy were of the quarter:
- The involuntary of the financing of National Electricity Infrastructure (NEVI) in fourteen states;
- Regulations of Maryland regulations regulations for Maryland;
- Maryland and Massachusetts that postpone the implementation of advanced clean cars and trucks rules;
- Connecticut tools that managed loading stimuli proposals for hosts for multiple families’ site;
- Entergy Louisiana and Pacific Power present new charging programs managed by houses in Louisiana and Oregon respectively.
“Nuts companies continued to propose new and interesting programs for their customers with electric vehicles,” said Brian Lips, program manager for NCCETC. “Nuts companies do what they can do to reduce barriers and reduce the impact of charging on the grid,” he said, including stimuli for make-ready infrastructure, new and extensive managed charging programs and new tariff designs.
The most striking EV -Staatsactie, according to the report, was then 16 states and the District of Columbia in May a request for an order to an American court to make their NEVI program -financing. The judge approved the request in June and repaired the financing for 14 of the applicants. The judge refused the requests of Minnesota, Vermont and the District or Columbia due to a lack of evidence.
Legislers in states such as Colorado, Maryland, California and Florida have followed technical and reliability requirements for charging stations for electric vehicles, according to the report. California, for example, has adopted a bill that the State Commission commissioned to develop Uptime reporting requirements, specifically for charging stations that are financed by ratepayers or government stimuli.
Investor-property in New York asked for an extension of their making-ready program for vehicles with medium and heavy service, according to the report. In the meantime, the Board of Public Utilities of New Jersey is currently considering make-ready stimuli for medium and heavy electric vehicles, which were imposed by four utilities of investors. The Wisconsin Public Service Commission approved the new make-ready program from Madison Gas & Electric for commercial customers. The Maryland supervisors revise the II-Electric vehicle programs of investors, including Make-ready incentives for public, commercial fleet, medium and heavy, public transport and multi-family charging, according to the report.
Throughout the country, the report said that utilities are focusing on the extensions of the pilot program. According to the report, some tools work to expand the programs as a stop gap until there is a permanent program, while other tools hope to switch to permanent programs.
For example, the committees in Oregon and Wisconsin have approved the approved extensions for the charging programs of utilities.
The Massachusetts Department of Public Utilities evaluates the Phase III EV infrastructure program of National Grid, including the removal of customer participation caps from the decrease discount. In the meantime, the Florida supervisors are working on the general tariff cabinet of Florida Power & Light, including a request to change four rates for electric vehicles into permanent rates.
In the second quarter of 2025, 209 209 Actions for Electric Vehicles were taken, in addition to 336 accounts introduced that have not yet adopted the legislative Chamber, according to the report. Because 2025 is an odd year, every state had an invoice session Last springThe state legislators generally worked on more legislation than the second quarter of the previous year.

NCCETC defined a “action” as legislative accounts that had adopted at least one chamber, executive orders and regulatory dockets, utilities and regulations procedures.
NCCETC is a public service center that is managed by the College of Engineering at North Carolina State University, with a mission to promote sustainable energy economy through support, demonstration and support for support for clean energy technologies, practices and policy. The center is known for its Dsire database This follows incentives in all 50 states for renewable energy and energy efficiency.
