This seems like slow progress.
> The Federal Highway Administration said 37 electric vehicle charging stations have been completed with funds from the 2021 Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act.
> This claim likely comes from a March Washington Post article about the electric vehicle charging program’s slow rollout. But 30 more stations have been completed since the Post’s article
- jauntywundrkind 2y agoWe didn't have any standards before. Standards were made in 2023. https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2023/02/28/2023-03500/national-electric-vehicle-infrastructure-standards-and-requirements https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2023/02/28/2023-03... Now products have to be developed that are compliant. That's not going to be fast! And then chargers have to get installed. I'm surprised as many are installed as there have been. Nice work teams.
