The rebirth of electric vehicle

Electric Vehicles (EVs) are becoming increasingly popular in the United States, but what policies have helped to spur this development or are being in created in response to it? In San Francisco 3 EV charging stations are being installed next to city hall, as was reported by cnet. This local policy is a good reflection of how public policy is shaped by consumer interest and trends. As our energy crisis worsens more and more resources are being put into the production of EVs and there practicality, affordability and overall awesomness are rapidly increasing. This last point is exemplified by the Tesla Aero EV (pictured below) which does 0-60 in under 3 seconds, faster than a Lamborghini.

While San Francisco is hardly a representation of the American public it is still a good first step in public policy towards the creation of a more sustainable country.
