Building Better EV Programs: The Ins and Outs of Technical Assistance for Public and Private Partners

As transportation electrification accelerates, both public agencies and private businesses are navigating complex decisions about program design, infrastructure deployment, and long-term operations. Effective technical assistance can make the difference between a program that simply launches and one that delivers lasting, scalable impact.

Join us for a practical, solutions-focused discussion on how technical assistance supports every stage of transportation electrification, from designing robust charging programs to guiding government agencies through implementation, to helping private businesses adopt and operate EV infrastructure. Speakers will share real-world insights, common pitfalls, and strategies that ensure programs are efficient, equitable, and aligned with broader transportation and climate goals.

We’ll explore:

• The role of technical assistance in helping government agencies plan, procure, and implement EV infrastructure
• How businesses can navigate site selection, incentives, permitting, fleet charging, and long-term operations
• Best practices for developing scalable, flexible programs that can evolve with technology and policy changes
