Q-U74. Can AIG funding be used for electric vehicle/aircraft chargers on the airport?

AIG funding can be used to increase the capacity of an existing fuel farm, with justification, and fund the addition of a new fuel tank for an alternative fuel type. For the purpose of electric vehicle/aircraft chargers, charging stations are considered fuel tanks. Since these are revenue generating projects, Sponsors must provide justification demonstrating how these types of charging stations will increase revenue similar to that of traditional fuel. Work with your local ADO/RO for additional information. 

Airport development projects to construct or modify airport facilities to provide low-emission fuel systems and the acquisition of low-emission technology are considered eligible. By extension of the Department of Energy’s definition of “low-emission technology”, this includes reliance on alternative fuel types such as electric or hydrogen.
