   It took years for gasoline stations to emerge that would enable long distance   
   travel.  Why would the EV or BEV or whatever technology be buit up overnight   
   if there wasn't a demand for it?  There is a reason that some intersections   
   have more than one, if not many, gasoline and diesel stations along critical   
   routes.  It wiil take years to determine a reasonable balance for electric   
   and other technology vehicles to travel freely.  The US Government is (IMHO)   
   a poor supplier of those stations in one fell swoop. Let the free market   
   address the needs and investors/companies foot the bill for such things.  The   
   electricity must come from somewhere so that too may be part of the ramp up   
   time and investment.   
      
   The push to EVs should take time to grow responsively.   
      
   IMHO, it won't yield the alleged goals of saving the climate - as we continue   
   to use more energy for everything.  The climate is mostly fine and certainly   
   not on an existential crisis of doom.
