Governor Wes Moore and the Maryland Energy Administration announced more than $28.5 million in funding for electric vehicles, charging infrastructure and other projects aimed at reducing transportation emissions across Maryland.
The funding includes 63 grants and 1,903 rebates across five state programs supporting electric school buses, EV charging equipment and medium- and heavy-duty zero-emission vehicles.
“As gas prices rise around the country, our administration is determined to use innovative solutions to reduce the burden on Maryland’s schools, businesses, and families,” Moore said. “We’re investing big in electric vehicles so our communities can access clean and safe transportation, while protecting our environment and saving at the pump.”
Among the awards is more than $1.5 million for Jubb’s Bus Service to add five electric school buses serving Anne Arundel County Public Schools. Another $2.5 million will help A Yankee Line add six electric transit buses in Baltimore City, while $950,000 will support 10 bidirectional electric vehicles at four Baltimore City Community Resiliency Hubs.
Additional funding will support EVs and charging infrastructure at locations throughout Maryland, including multifamily properties, universities, municipalities and the National Aquarium.
