Washington Post: This will really get the Chinese worried: Osaka, Shannon. “Biden’s $7.5 Billion Investment in Ev Charging Has Only Produced 7 Stations in Two Years.” 華盛頓郵報：這確實會讓中國人擔心 “拜登在電動車充電領域投資 75 億美元，但兩年內僅建造了 7 個充電站.”

President Biden has long vowed to build 500,000 electric vehicle charging stations in the United States by 2030. Those stations, the White House said, would help Americans feel confident purchasing and driving electric cars, and help the country cut carbon pollution.

But now, more than two years after Congress allocated $7.5 billion to help build out those stations, only 7 EV charging stations are operational across four states. And as the Biden administration rolls out its new rules for emissions from cars and trucks — which will require a lot more electric cars and hybrids on the road — the sluggish build-out could slow the transition to electric.
