Advanced Energy United Webinars

The bipartisan Infrastructure Investment & Jobs Act establishes a $5 billion grant program, the National Electric Vehicle Formula Program (NEVI), which provides funding to states for deploying EV charging infrastructure over the next five years.   Just days ahead of the August 1, 2022, deadline for submission of state NEVI plans, this webinar brought together electrification experts to review some of the strategies states propose to employ to make the most of this unprecedented federal funding to support the adoption of zero-emission vehicles by consumers and businesses. In this webinar, recorded live on July 27, 2022, state and federal transportation planners and charging network providers discuss what NEVI could mean for building out an EV charging network across America.  

Electrification is transforming the automotive industry: traditional automakers are retooling their factories and supply chains to build electric vehicles (EVs), while startups are taking EV production to new states like California, Nevada, and Arizona. Opportunity abounds for new companies, new workers, and new locations to get into the game. But what policies are needed to make sure this transition to EVs is a success for both businesses and workers? In this webinar, recorded live on September 30, 2021, U.S. Representative Donald McEachin and a panel of industry and labor experts weighed in on the prospects for U.S. dominance of the global EV market.
