Electric vehicles

The auto industry and public agencies are looking ahead to a bigger transition to electric vehicles, and it's not just adding more charging stations.Emergency Medical Technicians and firefighters in the Midwest are being offered training in responding to EV accidents.

Most experts agree putting more electric vehicles on the road is a major step toward fighting climate change, but a new report says states will also need to find new ways to fund road maintenance.

After a period of hesitancy, carmakers are now moving at full speed to put nonpolluting EVs in American garages, and energy companies are planning to roll out the charging infrastructure to power the new technology.
