Time needed to charge a vehicle and the EV fire hazard alone justify this move.
Drill, Baby, Drill!
Wouldn’t it be better to leave them up and running and charge people to use them at roughly the same price as we pay for gas at a service station?
LOL! Every day it’s something new to drive the left even more insane. Anyone notice not a word from Pelosi? I really think she’s in a padded room wearing a straight jacket.
Do the employees get to charge their personal cars for free?
Wind and solar are great if you don’t have access to the grid or don’t need a reliable power source. Government subsidies do not improve the product, competition does. EV’s have their place but I’m unable to come up with such a place in my life.
Why? Are the ports defective? A lot of folks are driving either EVs or hybrids these days, at least they are in the Bay Area near San Francisco.
I would venture a guess that most of these are not located in DC, but all across the country. I would also venture a guess that people don’t even bother charging their EV’s at home, but just do it at work on the taxpayer’s dime.
I was this close to getting a Federal job and requesting my free gasoline since there are free EV chargers. When they say NO, I sue!
Unless there was a mechanism to levy charging fees on personal vehicles, this should be reported to the IRS as income.
While you get mileage payments for official travel with your personal vehicle, commuting to your regular duty station isn’t refundable.
Perfect place for OPM/DOGE to look for a “claw-back” (IRS audits anyone?).
In our town, EV charger is free. Us “no EV ever” folks have to pay for the gas to fill our car.
Stop mandating EV School Buses.
Not the big, modern windmills that chop up birds and then are nearly impossible to dispose of reasonably when they inevitably underperform expectations/promises.
Yes. Those same federal buildins do not supply gas pumps for the regular cars.
For EVs to be a true success, they need infrastructure the private sector builds because there is a good ROI for the private sector to do it. Any government subsidized system is going to be weak in terms of economic efficiency, without the subsidies, become soft and dependent on the subsidies and never become viable on their own.
Seems stupid or spiteful to take out the EV chargers. If charging is currently free that’s easily fixed.
Why do they need EVs if they work at home.
Back around 2000, I was part of an engineering team that redesigned the EPA’s first HQ for the next tenant. In the parking garage were a row of parking stalls with chargers for GM’s first EV, that was a total failure. The chargers were demo ‘ed.
