Letter from Our Leadership

2024 was a pivotal year for transportation electrification. Record-breaking electric vehicle (EV) sales, a 20% expansion of the public charging network, and major advancements in freight and port electrification underscored the growing momentum. However, these achievements unfolded amid heightened political rhetoric, with EVs becoming a divisive issue in the election. There is a clear need to demonstrate the critical economic and national security benefits of transportation electrification.

Throughout the year, the EC worked to shape the narrative, convening stakeholders, advocating for key policies, and translating policy into action—putting rubber on the road and chargers in the ground.
These historic public and private investments are creating real jobs, expanding manufacturing, and delivering infrastructure in communities across the country, particularly in red and purple states. 

Looking ahead to 2025, our task is twofold: defending the critical federal-level successes achieved in recent years while ensuring the continued implementation of funding for shovel-ready projects. Equally important is broadening the conversation beyond climate to emphasize the global competitiveness of U.S. transportation electrification. These investments drive economic growth, support public health, strengthen national security, and position the U.S. as a leader in the global automotive market. 

 
This report highlights our key achievements over the past year, from action at all levels of government to port electrification, EV industry support, and technical assistance programs like the Bloomberg American Sustainable Cities Program. We look forward to working with all of you in 2025—not just to sustain our progress but to defend and build upon the work that has positioned the U.S. for long-term success.

STORY OF IMPACT

EC Protects Consumers from High  EV Fees in Pennsylvania

In May, Pennsylvania introduced a bill calling for a $450 yearly EV registration fee; upon introduction, EC staff held meetings with members of the House Appropriations Committee to educate them on transportation and road use funding, and at which levels fees became punitive for EV drivers.

As a result, the bill’s EV fee was reduced to$125 beginning in 2025, with moderate increases in future years.
STORY OF IMPACT

Combating Misinformation

From September through November 2024, the EC conducted a physical and digital ad campaign that utilized EV jobs and investment data and aimed to encourage Congress to support EV-friendly policies, highlight the positive impact of EVs on the U.S. economy, and counteract widespread misinformation about EVs. The campaign generated over three million impressions and thousands of clicks online, and included billboards in the critical states of Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, and Pennsylvania.

How Florida and Georgia Can Lead on Medium- and Heavy-Duty Vehicle and Port Electrification
On October 10, 2024, the EC hosted a workshop focused on the future of port and medium- and heavy-duty (MHD) vehicle electrification in Georgia and Florida. Attendees explored the latest advancements in MHD and port electrification and discussed actionable steps for planning, financing, and implementing these technologies.
STORY OF IMPACT

Bringing the EV Message to GOP Members of Congress

Heading into 2025 under a new administration and Congress, with several key policies at risk, the EC met with legislators to emphasize that EV tax credits and incentives have been crucial in enabling a domestic EV manufacturing boom, and we jeopardize our ability to catch up to China if we undercut the policy landscape that has supported these investments.

The EC will continue to engage in bipartisan education as is central to our mission. Read more in our recent blog.

We Coordinate Businesses for Action

The EC maintains strong relationships with EV and charging industry partners to stay informed of technology advancements, market trends, and business priorities. They also act as influential stakeholders who can inform and support policy development and adoption.

Organizing Strong Support for Heavy-Duty Emissions Standards

In late 2023 and early 2024, the EC led efforts to urge the EPA to finalize the strongest possible emissions standards for heavy-duty vehicles.

This campaign involved letters signed by over 80 businesses and 75 mayors, along with digital advertisements that garnered more than two million views. On March 29, 2024, the EPA finalized the rule, which is expected to result in 25–50 percent of new heavy-duty vehicle sales being electric by 2032.

Veterans for EVs Urge Washington Leaders to Support the EV Transition

In November 2024, in honor of Veterans Month, the EC’s Veterans for EVs initiative launched a sign-on letter to urge leaders in Washington to support the EV transition to bolster our economic and national security. The letter, signed by 100 veterans and counting, calls for the continuation of key EV policies such as the federal EV tax credit, Foreign Entity of Concern provisions, and Build America Buy America guidance, to enhance the competitiveness of the U.S. automotive sector on the global stage. The launch of the sign-on letter campaign coincided with the annual Veterans for EVs webinar, this year focusing on the connection between EVs and the utility grid. The all-veteran panel was moderated by Marcy Bauer, the senior vice president of deployment at EVgo and a long-time leader in the Veterans for EVs initiative. She emphasized that "EVs are the most patriotic thing you can drive."
