The NEVI EV Charging Program Really Is Actually Back On Track
The National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) program, launched in 2022 under the 2021 Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, aims to accelerate the development of a national fast-charging network for electric vehicles (EVs) along major U.S. highways. Despite initial setbacks—including some states hesitating to apply for funds and staffing/resource challenges—by July 2024, all 50 states had submitted deployment plans, with eight states already operating NEVI-funded charging stations totaling 61 ports and another 2,500 ports planned. The program faced a significant threat in early 2024 when then-President Donald Trump attempted to terminate it and withheld nearly half of Kentucky’s $69.5 million allocation, but EV advocates successfully fought to restore the initiative. Following legal challenges, including a lawsuit filed by states such as Kentucky, the program was revitalized with revised guidelines announced by Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy in August 2024. These changes reportedly removed some clean energy requirements, reflecting a shift

The article "Reconsidering The Skyrail Project In The Philippines" from CleanTechnica reflects on the stalled monorail project in Iloilo City, Philippines, which was initially agreed upon with BYD Auto Co. in 2016. The project aimed to establish a 20-kilometer monorail system as the country’s first, positioning Iloilo as a pioneer in sustainable urban transport. However, despite the ambitious plans and a target operational date two years later, the project remains unimplemented, stuck in bureaucratic delays. Meanwhile, BYD’s SkyRail technology has advanced significantly and achieved global success, with operational lines in Brazil, China, and other countries, demonstrating its viability and capacity to handle complex urban transit needs. Since the original Iloilo agreement, SkyRail technology has evolved considerably. Modern monorail cars now incorporate AI-powered traffic management, enhanced battery systems with extended emergency operation ranges, and modular designs for flexible routing. Energy efficiency has improved through advanced regenerative braking, and

The article from CleanTechnica discusses the challenges faced by plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) and how these issues mirror broader obstacles to battery electric vehicle (BEV) adoption. A key point is that many PHEV owners do not regularly plug in their vehicles, effectively using them as conventional hybrids. This behavior stems from factors such as limited availability of affordable, capable PHEVs and BEVs in Western markets. While China offers PHEVs with sufficient electric range (around 200 km) and competitive pricing, Western markets mostly have less capable PHEVs that rely more on internal combustion engines (ICE), and BEVs remain relatively expensive compared to ICE vehicles. Increased market competition and expanded availability of capable electric vehicles are needed to reduce prices and improve adoption. Another significant barrier is the insufficient fuel cost differential between gasoline and electricity in many countries. In Western nations, gasoline often costs about five times more per liter than electricity per kWh, but public charging markups can negate the cost

Maglev trains, which use magnetic levitation to float above tracks and reach speeds comparable to jets, have seen significant development and deployment in Asia, particularly in Japan and China, while Western countries like the US and those in Europe lag behind in adopting this technology. Asia’s leadership in maglev stems from a long history of high-speed rail innovation, beginning with Japan’s Shinkansen bullet trains in 1964 and China’s extensive high-speed rail network, which today accounts for about two-thirds of the global total. China pioneered commercial maglev with the Shanghai Maglev line in 2004, reaching speeds of 431 km/h (268 mph), while Japan’s superconducting maglev (SCMaglev) has set a world speed record of 603 km/h (374 mph) and is constructing a line to drastically cut travel times between Tokyo and Nagoya. Maglev technology operates on magnetic principles, using powerful electromagnets to lift and propel trains without physical contact with the tracks, eliminating rolling

Seattle’s Link light rail achieved a world-first milestone by successfully powering a train across the 13-mile I-90 floating bridge, known as the Homer M. Hadley Memorial Bridge, on September 8. This “Crosslake Connection” test marked the first time globally that a train operated under its own power on a floating bridge, a feat long considered a major engineering challenge. During the overnight test, a single train made multiple trips, gradually increasing speed from 5 to 55 mph, allowing engineers to monitor electrical interactions with overhead power lines. This milestone is a critical step toward the full opening of Sound Transit’s 2 Line, slated for early 2026, which will connect downtown Seattle with Bellevue and Redmond, including Microsoft’s headquarters. The new rail line is expected to significantly improve commuting times and reliability for thousands of workers at major tech companies like Microsoft, Amazon, Google, and Meta, transforming a trip that can currently take 20 minutes to two hours by car.

The article highlights Uganda's pivotal role in the origin and ongoing evolution of the boda boda motorcycle taxi industry, which began over 50 years ago with pioneers like Ali Mayende. Today, boda bodas are a vital mode of passenger and small goods transport across Africa, with nearly 30 million motorcycles operating continent-wide. Despite their prevalence, about 99% of these motorcycles still rely on internal combustion engines, presenting a significant opportunity for electrification. The shift toward electric motorcycles is primarily driven by local startups within the so-called “boda belt,” a region stretching from Tanzania to Senegal, where motorcycle taxis dominate commercial transport. A leading example of this transition is Uganda-based Zembo, a pioneer in Africa’s electric motorcycle sector. Zembo’s electric motorcycles have made substantial impacts, particularly in last-mile delivery services for companies like Glovo, where 40% of couriers now use electric bikes with plans to increase this share. Zembo’s fleet has contributed to significant carbon emission reductions—over 2,

The article from CleanTechnica explores the health benefits of cycling, particularly its potential to reduce the risk of dementia and Alzheimer's disease. Citing research highlighted by Harvard Health Publishing, regular exercise—including cycling—is emphasized as crucial for overall health, improving mood, sleep, and reducing risks of various diseases such as heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and mental health conditions. A recent study specifically found that individuals who use bicycles as their primary mode of transportation experienced a 19% reduction in dementia risk and a 22% reduction in Alzheimer's risk. This protective effect is linked to the physical activity involved in cycling, including navigation and balance, which was associated with increased gray matter volume in brain regions critical for memory, such as the hippocampus. The article contrasts cycling with non-active modes of transportation like driving, noting that no similar brain benefits were observed for those who primarily drive. It also situates cycling within a broader context of sustainable, electric-powered transportation, envisioning a future where cities rely on renewable energy and

The article from CleanTechnica explores whether electric bikes (ebikes) are effectively replacing car trips, rather than merely substituting traditional bicycle rides. The author notes a growing presence of ebikes used for practical transportation purposes, such as carrying groceries or sports equipment, indicating a shift towards utilitarian use. Highlighting that the Lectric XP 3.0 ebike ranks as the third best-selling electric vehicle (EV) model in the U.S., trailing only Tesla’s Model Y and Model 3, the article emphasizes that the EV category extends beyond cars to include ebikes, reflecting their rising popularity and potential impact on transportation habits. While comprehensive, up-to-date statistics are scarce, studies cited in the article suggest ebikes are indeed replacing a significant number of car trips. Research from Portland State University found that ebike rides replaced nearly 1,800 motor vehicle miles over just a few trips, with users reporting increased safety and frequency of riding. Additional surveys from North America and Australia reinforce these findings

A 2025 study published in the journal Nature reveals that Elon Musk’s recent political behavior has significantly damaged the Tesla brand and negatively impacted the broader perception of electric vehicles (EVs) in the U.S. The research, led by psychologist Alexandra Flores, found that liberals have become much less likely to buy Teslas following Musk’s public embrace of right-wing MAGA supporters and controversial actions, such as performing a Nazi salute and erratic behavior at a recent inauguration. Contrary to expectations, conservatives did not increase their interest in Tesla or EVs, resulting in a net decline in EV appeal among liberals without a corresponding gain among conservatives. This suggests Musk’s personal image has become so intertwined with EVs that his actions have broadly diminished the category’s attractiveness. The study highlights Musk’s earlier reputation as a climate-conscious entrepreneur and innovator, portrayed positively in popular culture during the 2010s. Initially seen as apolitical or even liberal, Musk’s shift toward right-wing politics has alienated his core liberal

The article "When Cars Go Electric: Understanding The Tipping Points Transforming Transportation" from CleanTechnica explores the rapid shift from internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles to electric vehicles (EVs) through the lens of three complementary theories: diffusion of innovations, logistic growth (the s-curve), and complex adaptive systems. These frameworks collectively explain that technological adoption is not gradual but occurs in sharp bursts once critical thresholds are crossed, rapidly transforming industries and creating opportunities for new market entrants while challenging established businesses. Central to the discussion is Everett Rogers’ diffusion of innovations theory, which segments adopters into five groups: innovators (2.5%), early adopters (13.5%), early majority (34%), late majority (34%), and laggards (16%). Innovators, exemplified by early Tesla Roadster buyers, embrace new technology despite high costs and inconvenience. Early adopters follow, motivated by practical benefits despite some limitations, as seen with early Nissan Leaf and Tesla Model S buyers. The

A recent Politico-UC Berkeley poll reveals that support for California’s high-speed rail project has surged to 67% among registered voters, including 82% of Democrats. This marks an increase of over 10 percentage points compared to previous surveys, with particularly strong backing from voters in Los Angeles and the San Francisco Bay Area (both 71%), young voters aged 18-34 (82%), and Black voters (81%). This growing public support persists despite federal threats to withdraw $4 billion in grants under the Trump administration. The project aims to connect Los Angeles and San Francisco via a 500-mile bullet train, a transformative infrastructure endeavor. California’s economic capacity to complete the high-speed rail is underscored by its gross domestic product surpassing $4.1 trillion, making it the world’s fourth-largest economy, ahead of Japan. Advocates highlight Japan’s successful mid-20th-century development of an extensive 1,800-mile bullet train network on a landmass slightly smaller than California

A recent Transport & Environment (T&E) report highlights that the European Union’s current rail funding strategy disproportionately favors a small number of large megaprojects over numerous essential rail infrastructure upgrades. Between 2021 and 2023, seven major projects—including Rail Baltica, Brenner base tunnel, and Lyon Turin tunnel—received 31% (€6.6 billion) of the EU’s Connecting Europe Facility (CEF) transport funds, while 84 other critical upgrades shared only 27%. Although these megaprojects are important for integrating Europe’s rail network, their lengthy timelines and high costs have led to oversubscription of CEF funds, limiting investment in quicker, widespread improvements. The report also raises concerns about the underfunding of the European Rail Traffic Management System (ERTMS), a standardized signaling system crucial for enhancing cross-border rail capacity and connectivity. ERTMS received just €0.7 billion (3% of CEF transport funds) from 2021 to 202

The European Investment Bank (EIB), despite branding itself as the ‘EU climate bank’ since 2021, lent over €7 billion between 2021 and 2024 to transport projects that increase CO2 emissions, according to analysis by the green group Transport & Environment (T&E). Notably, €6.1 billion was allocated to new road construction, including a €200 million motorway project in Poland that cuts through protected nature areas and is expected to emit over 3,000 tonnes of CO2-equivalent. The EIB controversially counted this motorway project as part of its climate spending, citing improved climate resilience. Additionally, the bank lent nearly €890 million for airport expansions, including €90 million to Bologna Airport and €800 million to the Spanish airport operator Aena, which plans to expand multiple airports, contradicting the bank’s own environmental rules and undermining efforts to reduce aviation emissions. The EIB also financed biofuel projects with questionable sustainability, lending about €1 billion

The article from CleanTechnica highlights a call from global and Iberian business travel associations, along with the logistics company Transfesa, urging the French, Spanish, and Portuguese governments to improve and complete key cross-border rail connections. The focus is on enhancing international train links between these countries to facilitate more sustainable travel options. Traveling by train instead of flying can reduce emissions by over 90% on certain routes, making rail a significantly greener alternative for business travel. However, the current lack of competitive and efficient international rail connections between France, Spain, and Portugal hampers efforts by businesses to reduce their carbon footprint by choosing trains over planes. The article emphasizes that better rail infrastructure and services are essential to support the shift toward less polluting transportation modes, thereby contributing to broader environmental goals. The piece also includes a brief mention of CleanTechnica’s newsletters and community engagement but primarily centers on the environmental and logistical benefits of improved cross-border rail travel in the Iberian region.

Uber has launched Route Share, a new shuttle service operating on fixed routes and schedules in seven cities, aiming to provide more affordable and predictable transportation during peak commuting hours. This initiative marks Uber’s latest attempt to "reinvent the bus," following earlier efforts by Uber, Lyft, Elon Musk, and others to introduce ride-sharing services resembling traditional public transit. Uber’s leadership acknowledges the concept is inspired by buses, with the goals of reducing consumer prices, easing congestion, and improving environmental outcomes. However, experts express skepticism about the program’s benefits for commuters, climate, and public transit systems. The Union of Concerned Scientists highlights that rideshare services currently produce significantly more emissions than the trips they replace, partly due to "deadheading"—drivers traveling without passengers. While pooled rides reduce this impact somewhat, the environmental advantage remains limited unless electric vehicles are used. Moreover, there are concerns about Uber’s lack of public accountability compared to traditional transit agencies, which serve all riders regardless of profitability and are subject to public oversight. This shift toward privatized transit services could undermine struggling public systems, especially in cities like Philadelphia and Dallas facing severe budget crises and service cuts. The broader context includes federal funding reductions for public transit, leaving many systems financially vulnerable post-pandemic. With a nationwide transit budget shortfall estimated at $6 billion, companies like Uber see an opportunity to fill gaps in public transportation. Despite Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi’s insistence that the company competes with personal car use rather than public transit, critics worry that such private shuttle services may exacerbate challenges for public transit and fail to deliver meaningful environmental improvements.
