The American Jobs Plan from @POTUS endorses policies critical to a flourishing, global-leading American #EV market—the priority of all the members of the EV Drive Coalition. https://t.co/9X6vfnLzNW
This is a very big deal for the U.S. electric vehicle market.
Biden is proposing $174 billion in investment, covering everything from EV chargers, to buses, government fleet changeover, and more. A pivotal moment.

Congratulations to Jigar and thanks for taking on this challenge. The President has set out a bold agenda for deployment programs such as the LPO and we applaud Jigar's desire to make them a reality. We look forward to working with him.
Once again we have to ask ourselves, are we going to try to keep up with our international competitors in the EV transition race?

The pain in clean energy across the board is real. Over half a million people doing without paychecks already. The good news is that we know electric transportation is a huge opportunity to get people back to work quickly when this crisis ends.
NEW: Unemployment data show the U.S. clean energy sector lost a staggering 600,000 jobs in March and April.
Here's my story on what the damage looks like -- and on some of the clean energy stimulus proposals circulating in Sacramento and Washington, D.C.: https://t.co/sUKo18aD0l
This is what our competitors are doing. Are we going to stay in the race?

In reaction to this thread of @MLiebreich (with reactions of @bryworthington) let me explain why I think eTrucks (not hydrogen, not trucks with catenary overheads) will corner most of the 40 tonnes heavy semi-trucking market and outcompete diesel.

"There are lies, damned lies and statistics".
I hate the quote but it applies to the newest column of statistician and merchant of doubt @BjornLomborg.
Here he is again with misdirection against climate change action. This time against electric vehicles in the @australian.
This #NewMexico study is a microcosm of the benefits we could see across the country by transitioning to #EVs. We'd add good jobs in communities across the country by being a global leader in manufacturing - pro-EV policies are an economic imperative! https://t.co/wbJ3LRW3rn
Our EV factcheck has been updated again:
Q) Surely making batteries for EVs causes much higher emissions than building a std car?
A) Yes, but the extra carbon "debt" gets paid off within 2yrs due to much lower use-phase emissions
