They’ve got to hurry and finish by October for a photo op.
“...and meet the NEVI technical minimum standards.”
Meaning they had to put a US Nameplate on their Chinese Import.
“”Kentucky, a big EV battery production state””
Several USA car companies, especially Ford, are ‘scaling back’ investment in EV battery production. No matter how much the Hussein/Biden Regime steals from taxpayers to give out, if people do not want to purchase them, no amount of battery production will matter.
Yes, I know the long-term goal is to get all of us out of any car, right now there are tens of thousands of EVs just sitting on the car lots.
Also, will there be any warning signs on the chargers, warnings that fast charging damages the life of the battery. Will there be any instructions to only charge to 80%, and to not go below a 20% charge level? (this 80/20 is what battery manufacturers [large and small] recommend to sustain the life/health of the battery).
Some customers used the convenience store inside (not a “bodega”-—this is the United States). They bought and ate sushi, sandwiches and potato salad——all outdated a month earlier.
Customer base shrank as so few lived to return.
No government money should be used. It should be free market.
Next door in Tennessee; they have decided to add an addiitonal ‘fee’ of $100 to register a hybrid vehicle, and $200 to register an electric vehicle. Their excuse? They need to make up the loss in gas taxes somewhere...LOLOL! (Normal folks will continue to pay $29 to registered gas-driven vehicles.)
“Well, isn’t the special!”
My plan is to invest in tow trucks, ICE engines, rigged for towing Evs that are in need of a charge. Also equipped with battery fire suppressing chemicals.
Later, I will add food trucks that have hot dogs, pop corn and other goodies to enjoy with a roaring fire!
The cost of services will make the “feel good” folks wish that they had nothing to do with EV Cars.
On the fringes of the Southeast. Kentucky has a SEC school, so I guess that’s enough. But it was the birth state of Abraham Lincoln.
Are they going allow the use of KY mined coal to generate the electricity or are they going to try and use Chinese solar panels?
The headline should have been it “Broke wind..” which would have been more descriptive.
Kentucky ain’t in the Southeast.
WOW. And it only cost a trillion dollars to get us this far.
Capper cables will be stripped within the week.
Great place for the illegals to hang out for a few months.
