Ohio's $140M EV Charger Boost

Ohio's $140M EV Charger Boost

Author: The Daily News Now! April 23, 2026 Duration: 1:38

Ohio secures $140M in federal funds for EV chargers, aiming to install 31 stations by 2026. Pilot Travel Centers, backed by Berkshire Hathaway, receives $600K-$800K per site in Northeast Ohio. Critics argue its a waste due to low EV adoption, while supporters highlight the benefits of a robust network and the comparatively small investment compared to oil subsidies. Drive Ohio plans to add 64 more stations, blending public and private funding.
