EV Infrastructure Should Continue to Expand Under Trump? – RVBusiness – Breaking RV Industry News
New federally backed electric vehicle chargers will continue to appear along U.S. highways no matter which president sits in the Oval Office, according to a report by Automotive News.
The Biden administration’s plan to line highways across the U.S. with federally funded electric vehicle chargers will remain in place once Donald Trump becomes president next month, experts say.
“It would take almost an act of God for Trump or Congress to overturn” the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure program, said Loren McDonald, chief analyst at Paren, which recently acquired McDonald’s EV Adoption firm.
That’s because much of the $5 billion that underpins the initiative has already been doled out to the states. The remainder was preapproved. Policymakers designed the five-year program, which started in 2021, to help states create a network of public charging stations in 50-mile intervals along interstates.
