Adam Mahoney, a reporter for Capital B News, explains how driving an electric vehicle put him in a precarious situation as a Black man.
Florida Power & Light is installing more than 1,000 charging ports across the state. Most will be Level 2 — slow chargers.
The electric car maker’s extensive Supercharger system allows drivers to charge their vehicles in minutes instead of hours, but right now they only work for Teslas and not other brands.
Currently, there is no standard charging infrastructure. Creating a universal charger could be key to getting more people to go electric.
The bill devotes $7.5 billion to Biden’s goal — having half a million charging stations nationwide within a decade.
If the measure is enacted, one question will be: who should install and maintain those stations to encourage more EV adoption?
Charging availability has increased in many places, but still varies widely.
A lack of charging station infrastructure is making drivers and investors think twice.
