While Electrify America opened up several coast-to-coast routes for non-Tesla EVs, there are still a number of corridors that it didn't cover.

When it comes to the Dieselgate Settlement, the most well-known outcome is probably Electrify America. As part of the punishment for cheating on emissions, VW had to spend $10 Billion on EV charging. So, it created a subsidiary to handle that and create a charging network out of all these stations. It has gone on to not only build stations with those funds, but is now also partnering with other companies through Electrify Commercial to build even more stations.

But, looking at Plugshare’s “Coming Soon” CCS stations, it’s apparent that this is about to change. The first station entry references both a news article and a government document showing that the City of Minden has received funds from the Dieselgate Settlement and that they’re going to put in some DC fast charging.

Finally, there’s an Electrify America station already under construction in Monroe. Obviously, this is more Dieselgate money going into the ground and coming back up with some power for EVs, even after years of waiting. I checked into it, and two issues were at play. First, supply problems kept Francis Energy from putting the stations up. Then, the state decided to put out a second round of Dieselgate funds, which was set aside for many of these same sites a second time. According to Francis Energy, the additional funds will mean faster charging rates at the sites. Instead of 60 kW max, they should be over 100 kW .
