The Biden administration on Wednesday finalized standards for a $7.5 billion national electric vehicle charging network and highlighted other progress in the bid to transition the country away from internal combustion vehicles.
“The new standards will ensure everyone can use the network – no matter what car you drive or which state you charge in,” the White House said in a statement.
As part of the announcement, the White House said Tesla has agreed to open to the public at least 7,500 chargers on its proprietary network. Previously, the EV manufacturer’s network had been closed to other brands.
