Biden’s last-minute EV charger funding blitz – Political maneuvering or genuine progress?
The Biden administration just dropped a $635 million bombshell on the EV charging landscape, allocating nearly all remaining Bipartisan Infrastructure Law funds days before Trump’s return. Is this a strategic move to cement a legacy, a desperate attempt to obstruct the incoming administration, or simply fulfilling campaign promises? What impact will this influx of cash have on the EV charging network, and will it truly make finding a charge as easy as filling up at a gas station? With only $700,000 left unallocated from the original $2.5 billion, what does the future of EV charging infrastructure funding look like under the new administration? Is 500,000 chargers by 2030 still a realistic goal, and what role will private investment play in achieving it? Let’s discuss the potential ramifications of this funding and what it means for the future of EVs.
