Biden’s electric vehicle plan includes expanding charging stations. Is it enough?
WASHINGTON – President Joe Biden’s proposal to build thousands of electric vehicle charging stations could revolutionize the nation’s highway grid if Congress passes a bipartisan infrastructure bill that would spend $7.5 billion on the initiative.
As automakers expand their lineup of electric cars, the new public charging stations would represent a historically large down payment on Biden’s plan to aggressively reduce greenhouse gas levels by 2030. Transportation makes up 29% of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions, more than any other sector.
