Arizona will be getting $11 million for EV chargers this year. Here's what that might get the state

Arizona will be getting a little more than $11 million this year to pay for new electric vehicle charging stations.

That was part of the bipartisan infrastructure bill approved by Congress and signed by President Joe Biden late last year. The Federal Highway Administration estimates the state will get more than $76 million over five years for electric vehicle infrastructure.

So what will Arizona be able to get for that money? To find out, The Show spoke with Tim De Chant, senior technology reporter at Ars Technica.
