EV charging in Phoenix, Arizona

Phoenix's EV charging network is expanding through utility incentives and Arizona's NEVI program. ADOT's 2024 plan update advances corridor sites on interstates and key highways, while a 2024 RFP initiated design-build-operate contracts for interstate gaps. The city continues outreach and equity mapping to guide public siting and partnerships in underserved areas.

Coverage concentrates downtown and around Sky Harbor, Arcadia, Camelback East, and Deer Valley, with additional fast charging along I-10, I-17, and Loop 101. Major networks include ChargePoint, Tesla, Electrify America, and EVgo. SRP offers commercial rebates for Level 2 and DC fast equipment; APS has hosted Level 2 pilots at workplaces and public sites.

PlugMapper aggregates verified locations with connector types and live status. Filters highlight utility-supported sites and corridor fast chargers so residents and visitors can balance dwell-time Level 2 with rapid DCFC during trips across the Valley.
