Electrification Coalition Seeks Mass EV Adoption
The Electrification Coalition is a nonpartisan, Washington-based not-for-profit group of business leaders committed to promoting policies and actions that facilitate the deployment of electric vehicles on a mass scale in order to combat the economic, environmental, and national security dangers caused by dependence on petroleum.
Electrification Coalition of business leaders committed to EV deployment
The Coalition’s primary mission will be to promote the deployment of electric vehicles via a wide variety of policies and actions, including the creation of electrification ‘ecosystems,’ limited geographic areas where electrified vehicles and infrastructure can be introduced so the concept can take root and grow.
Electrification of transportation would allow cars and light trucks to run on energy produced by a diverse set of sources: nuclear, natural gas, coal, wind, solar, geothermal and hydroelectric. In the process, electrification would shatter the status of oil as the sole fuel of the U.S. ground transportation fleet.
Members of the Electrification Coalition believe electrification of the transportation industry and mass EV Adoption is the best path to the fuel diversity that is indispensable to improving the nation’s economic strength, environmental health, and national security.
