The White House is financing a new generation of electric vehicle charging standards, including the creation of a country-wide network of EV charging stations. President Biden’s goal is to utilize these standards to eventually have more than 500,000 chargers across the United States.
“Without strong standards, chargers would be less reliable, may not work for all cars, or lack common payment methods,” the White House said in a press briefing. “The new standards will ensure everyone can use the network — no matter what car you drive or which state you charge in.”
