The Biden administration has left the building, but not before allocating a whopping $635 million to flesh out EV charging infrastructure throughout the nation. While the Trump administration seems set on pumping the brakes on EV adoption, the charging infrastructure itself is already at the point of no return. With or without the funds, electrification seems to be the future of on-the-road mobility.
Once funds are allotted, reclaiming them can be a difficult process, as the power of the purse is held by Congress, not the Executive Office. While President Trump has put a freeze on the funds via Executive Order, whether he can actually retract the Biden administration’s allocation is questionable.
