NEVI Build-Out Minnesota
Minnesota NEVI Build-Out
Every NEVI-funded charging site in Minnesota, from grant award to first charge. Part of the regional NEVI tracker.
Minnesota's NEVI pipeline is at an earlier stage — sites here are moving from award to permitting to construction, and expected live dates should be treated as approximate. The pattern matches the program's purpose: corridor gaps with real traffic and thin commercial incentive.
New to the program? Start with NEVI Explained — what the $5 billion program requires (97% uptime, four 150 kW ports minimum), why it paused and restarted in 2025, and how to tell if a station is NEVI-funded.

Data sources and methodology
Site list sourced from state DOT NEVI program pages and FHWA grant records, cross-checked against the NREL Alternative Fuels Station Locator. Status verified monthly. Expected live dates are official estimates and regularly slip 3–12 months. Last data check: August 2026. For scoring methodology across the site, see how we measure.
