As the US begins to tackle its massive carbon footprint, we are seeing huge investments into renewable energy. Solar, wind, hydro and geothermal power are becoming a bigger part of the conversation and are recognized as viable alternatives to oil and gas as we look for ways to reduce our environmental impact. At the same time, we are seeing automakers - those established and some newcomers - in a battle over the more environmentally friendly electric vehicle market. With money pouring into the infrastructure sector to accommodate the needs of drivers to have their usual convenience in a roadside rest stop to refill, we are beginning to see the race to control a piece of the recharge market. This highway recharge hub project was envisioned as a holistic approach to provide new infrastructure along our national highways with many amenities to access while you wait for your vehicle to charge. Hubs like this one will serve a growing demand of EV drivers making longer trips as vehicle ranges continue to push the envelope on allowable distance and as charging speeds get faster and faster - making EV range anxiety a thing of the past.
