The Biden administration said it has approved ambitious plans by 34 states and Puerto Rico to create a national electric vehicle charging network as the U.S. begins its transition away from gas-powered transportation.
Federal officials said they will continue to review the plans not approved in this round with the goal of approving all the states’ EV roadmaps by Sept. 30.for the electric vehicle charging network.
Some rural states have raised serious concerns about the proposed federal requirements that accompany the money, including the every 50-mile requirement. “It would take more than two decades before a significant enough increase in statewide EV adoption would result in long queues of EVs waiting for charging at four-port stations,” he wrote.The Federal Highway Administration will review those concerns and determine the final guidelines now that the public comment period has closed. Federal officials are also considering a waiver of the “Buy America” provision of the infrastructure deal.
“Even if that charger that’s in that rural area isn’t used as much every day, we still need the infrastructure to supply them.. We have gas stations that are used less in rural areas than they would be in a big city, but we need them for the demand.”
