Navigating the EV Landscape

Gabe Klein, who led the U.S. Joint Office of Energy and Transportation under President Joe Biden, warns that the Trump administration’s reversal of federal EV incentives and emissions rules could devastate the nation’s ability to compete globally, especially with China. 

In this episode, Klein breaks down the Joint Office’s role in accelerating private EV charging investments and filling gaps in charger deserts with public funding. While he expects a period of instability in the EV charging landscape, the long-term outcome is inevitable: Americans will drive EVs and charge them on the road, he said.
