During his inaugural day as president, Trump ordered a stop to federal funding to build EV charging stations through the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Fund.
The article from WION discusses how major automakers like General Motors, Ford, and others have urged the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) to resume the federal electric vehicle (EV) charging program. This program, which was paused due to concerns over domestic manufacturing requirements, is crucial for expanding the EV charging infrastructure across the U.S. The automakers emphasized the need for a swift resolution to ensure the program's benefits, including job creation and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, can be realized. They highlighted the importance of the program in meeting the Biden administration's goal of having 500,000 EV chargers by 2030, and expressed concerns that delays could hinder EV adoption rates and the broader transition to sustainable transportation.
