Abstract: To achieve the federal goal to make half of all new vehicles sold in the U.S. in 2030 zero-emissions vehicles, the U.S. Department of Transportation's (DOT) Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) has employed the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) Formula Program, which aims to promote an interconnected network of publicly accessible electric vehicle (EV) charging stations. By analyzing panel data on a subset of U.S. counties, this paper examines the relationship between different classes of EV charging stations and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) and battery electric vehicles (BEVs). Through an instrumental approach to identify potential endogeneity, this study suggests that public charging stations and the implications of the NEVI Formula Program might not provide the optimistic benefit expected in achieving the federal goal. This finding indicates the need to reevaluate current strategies and explore additional incentives to enhance EV adoption and the effectiveness of public charging infrastructure.
