Description
General Motors and Ford – two of the biggest electric vehicle producers
– announced they would adopt Tesla’s charging technology
for their electric vehicles in the coming years. That’s significant
because the federal government earlier this year chose to require
another EV charging technology rather than Tesla’s technology in its
federally-funded chargers under the bipartisan infrastructure law.
POLITICO’s James Bikales breaks down what these developments mean for
the future of EV charging. Plus, the Energy Department is providing a
$850 million conditional loan for the construction of an advanced
battery cell manufacturing facility in Arizona.
James Bikales is the host of Morning Energy and a reporter for
POLITICO.
Josh Siegel is an energy reporter for POLITICO.
Nirmal Mulaikal is a POLITICO audio host-producer.
Alex Keeney is a senior audio producer at POLITICO.
Jenny Ament is the executive producer of POLITICO’s audio department.
