The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) just announced it is allocating up to $45 million to improve electric vehicle (EV) batteries.
In President Biden's continued push to accelerate the nation's transition to clean, electrified transportation, this funding is pivotal to developing more affordable, convenient, efficient and resilient batteries.
“Advanced batteries are the heartbeat of the electric vehicle industry and investments to make them charge faster and last longer will be critical to accelerate the deployment of electric cars and trucks,” confirms U.S. Secretary of Energy Jennifer Granholm. “The benefits of an electrified transportation sector in America will be felt for generations to come—from directly combatting climate change to growing domestic manufacturing jobs and strengthening our overall energy independence.”
This federal initiative is being carried out through a brand-new DOE program called Electric Vehicles for American Low-Carbon Living (EVs4ALL). Read this press release for more details: https://bit.ly/3OUnh3V
