Nevi

Better late than never?  It’s been over 2 years since the infrastructure bill was signed and $5 billion was allocated for EV charging.

It’s a little frustrating for it to take this long.  Our government needs to start figuring out how to be efficient with permitting, construction contracts, and funding.  We need more chargers and we need them now.  Is that a pipe dream?     

Maybe just give all of the NEVI funds to Tesla.  They seem to have their charging figured out.  

I’m joking.  Well, partially.
