It is no longer a secret that the future is for electric cars, and there is a great transformation process from traditional service stations to battery charging stations. As a result of this transformation, conflicts arose within the United States, according to the American Wall Street Journal.
In its report, the newspaper raised a question about who should control the car charging stations, as various companies compete with each other to obtain the necessary licenses from US authorities to build, operate, manage and own these stations.
In this context, “Exelon” and “Southern California Edison” invested millions of dollars in building the necessary infrastructure for the charging stations, in an effort to own and operate chargers.
Consumers fear hoarding stations and raising electric charge prices, while oil companies fear that their competitors will eliminate them, while owners of emerging projects see the need to give them a chance to compete.
The owners of these projects say that the private sector should have priority in replacing traditional service stations with power stations, and that this should not be under the control of monopolistic companies and entities.
According to the newspaper, this controversy exists among members of regulatory committees across the United States, as electric cars are gradually gaining popularity and increasingly being adopted as an alternative to traditional cars.
Total investment in cargo terminal infrastructure is expected to reach more than $ 13 billion over the next five years, according to energy consultancy Wood Mackenzie, and that will include nearly 3.2 million shipping ports.
Big companies like General Motors and Ford are working to accelerate the production of electric cars, several states have passed laws for electric cars and recently California announced a ban on the sale of new gasoline cars by 2035.
The United States currently has fewer than 100,000 public outlets for charging electric cars, and President Donald Trump has supported the Transportation Bill of 2019 that provides $ 1 billion in grants to build alternative infrastructure for gas stations.
