Electric Vehicles and U.S. Policy: A Legislative and Economic Analysis

The transition to electric vehicles (EVs) represents one of the most significant shifts in transportation, energy, and environmental policy in the 21st century. As the United States accelerates efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, modernize infrastructure, and foster economic competitiveness, federal policymakers are increasingly called upon to shape the framework through which this transformation unfolds. This book compiles critical federal research and analysis on the emerging electric vehicle landscape. Through detailed assessments of emissions regulations, manufacturing labor trends, tax incentives, and infrastructure needs, it presents a nuanced look at the policies driving - and challenging - EV adoption across the United States.
