Feds Halt the National #ElectricVehicle Charging Program
The US government has ordered states to retract their plans to build hundreds of federally funded #EVcharging stations, according to a memo obtained by WIRED.
The #NEVI program, established by 2021’s Infrastructure Law, attempted to build chargers along thousands of miles of federal highway, with a focus on places that might not otherwise be able to financially support a charger.

WIRED · Feds Halt the National Electric Vehicle Charging ProgramBy Aarian Marshall

#Trump using bureaucracy (ironic) to stall National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure #NEVI funding that helps put #EV chargers every 50 miles risks costing more than saving & puts us further behind China. Range/charging speed are improving &—rechargeable—batteries have way longer shelf lives vs. gas.

Continued thread

"Throwing #NEVI into the chopper hurts investors, workers, and taxpayers, but it doesn’t put a stop to #EVCharging activity in the US.

The #IONNA EV charging joint venture unveiled plans to go national with its driver-centered “Rechargery” charging station model, which treats drivers to a lounge-style experience while they’re waiting to fill up."

Trump: no more EV chargers on federal highways

"The order may be illegal."

Biden's "#NEVI program attempts to build #chargers along thousands of miles of federal highway, with a focus on places that might not otherwise be able to financially support a charger."

"Billions in federal funding have already been disbursed under the program. Money has gone to both red and blue states. Top funding recipients last year included Florida, New York, Texas, Georgia, and Ohio."

"I asked Loren McDonald what his thoughts were on this latest cancellation, and he, among others, doesn’t think the FHWA has the authority to stop the NEVI program with a memo – it would need a change in law from Congress..."

Funding for the EV chargers is being awarded as part of the second round of the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) Program.

Round 2 funding will go towards EV chargers on I-270, I-275, I-675, I-680, I-71, I-76, I-77, SR 15, U.S. 23, U.S. 30, and U.S. 33. #Ohio #EV #NEVI #ChargingStations
