Electric Mobility grants — page 7
347 listings tracked right now · page 7 of 8
EV funding has split into three distinct tracks. (1) Vehicle manufacturing, IRA 30D / 45W credits in the US, UK Automotive Transformation Fund, EU Innovation Fund, these are large but mostly for incumbents and tier-1 suppliers. (2) Charging infrastructure, NEVI ($5bn US, fully obligated), UK Rapid Charging Fund, EU AFIR + CEF Transport, plus a long tail of local-authority procurement. (3) Earlier-stage R&D for next-gen batteries, charging tech, and heavy-duty applications, ARPA-E, Innovate UK Faraday, Horizon Cluster 5, Vinnova FFI. Listed below are the open electric mobility grant calls in that landscape, taken from each funder's own notice and re-checked on every refresh.
Transport grants come from transport and energy departments, the EU through Horizon and the Connecting Europe Facility, and sector-specific programmes for aviation and shipping such as Clean Aviation and the IMO-linked funds. Vehicle and vessel programmes usually require a demonstration partner already in place, and eligibility often depends on where the asset will operate rather than on where the applicant is registered.
This page lists open electric mobility grants currently tracked by Raise Lens — 347 of them right now, sorted with the soonest deadline first. Every listing has been classified against the sustainability taxonomy rather than matched on keywords, so what appears here is electric mobility work rather than anything whose description happens to mention it.
The funders publishing electric mobility grants here include Zero Emission Vehicles, Office for Zero Emission Vehicles, 50130665, among 2 others. Who is funding matters as much as what: eligibility, reporting burden and the realistic timeline to a decision vary far more between funders than between individual calls.
Geographic coverage on this page spans UK/EU, EUROPE, GLOBAL, ASIA, AFRICA. Eligibility is usually tied to where the work happens or where the applying organisation is registered, and the two are not always the same — worth checking before investing time in an application.
2 of these close within the next 30 days. Deadlines are taken from the source listing and re-checked on every refresh, but the originating funder remains the authority — always confirm against the official notice before you submit.
