Electric vehicle charging ports are a key part of President Joe Biden’s effort to encourage drivers to move away from gasoline-powered cars and trucks that contribute to global warming, but only four states have them.

PoliticsLiam Sawyer, of Indianapolis, charges his 2023 Ford Mustang Mach-E, Friday, March 8, 2024, at an electric vehicle charging station in London, Ohio. The charging ports are a key part of President Joe Bidens effort to encourage drivers to move away from gasoline-powered cars and trucks that contribute to global warming.

“We are building this national framework from scratch, partnering with states to set plans, and we want to make sure we are taking appropriate care to set this program up correctly,″ Federal Highway Administrator Shailen Bhatt said in an interview. “We’re committed to making sure that all Americans can charge where they live, work, shop, play, pray,″ said Gabe Klein, director of the Joint Office of Energy and Transportation, which runs the federal charging program.

In some parts of the country — especially rural areas far from major cities — “there are definitely corridors where you have worries about range anxiety,'' Bhatt said."It is going to take longer to get to them, just like it took longer to get cellphone coverage in those places.'' “Electric vehicles are the future of transportation, and we want drivers in Ohio to have access to this technology today,” said DeWine, who appeared at the Ohio station’s grand opening in December.

Meeting federal requirements and operating standards is a challenge for states with little experience rolling out this type of infrastructure, according to Loren McDonald, an independent analyst tracking the buildout.
