Survey Shows Americans Want More EV Options, Charging Facilities

The transport sector accounts for around 28.2% of total carbon emissions in North America. In a bid to cut down these emissions, reduce reliance on fossil fuels and improve air quality, several state governments have been considering banning the sale of new internal combustion engine vehicles in exchange for electric vehicles (“EVs”). Powered by clean, renewable energy, EVs produce zero emissions at the tailpipe, making them perfect for drivers keen on reducing their carbon footprint. However, EV adoption is far from universal, with the high upfront costs and range anxiety keeping most drivers from making the switch to electric vehicles.…
