The federal government needs to let the EV industry figure this out on their own without financial backing. If the federal government needs to subsidize or incentivize anything, it's the power grid and infrastructure that needs the help - doesn't matter how many charging stations you have without juice. Our power grid is not positioned to handle mass EV adoption in this country for how Americans drive vehicles.The move is expected to happen by the end of the year and comes as opening the network is a requirement to get access to new federal funds to accelerate the deployment of EV charging stations.
The sentiment that we need more charging stations without looking at the entire picture of how we facilitate this is shortsighted. We need to prop up carbon-neutral macro power solutions like more nuclear power plants to get us there.
