EXCERPT:
BUTTIGIEG: “We're at about 190,000 publicly available charging stations in the U.S., that's approximately double what the level was when President Biden came in. The issue though is that there are some gaps in the market, ones that are just not going to be built by the private sector that's been building the construction of those chargers to date. That's why the legislation provided for funding to do federally supported chargers that are intended to be online before 2030. Now the bulk of that construction will happen in '27, '28, quite a bit actually I expect by 2026.”
