The White House this week announced plans to launch 48 electric vehicle (EV) charging networks in 35 states and along 25,000 miles of highway, while 28 states are teaming up with major vehicle manufacturers and EV service providers to boost charging availability elsewhere on those corridors.
Several other states also announced plans to increase EV charging availability and install additional signage to help EV owners find chargers. The White House said it hoped these efforts would remove barriers to EV ownership and reduce the feeling of range anxiety that keeps some drivers from buying electric-powered cars.
