3 Reasons not to play favorites to EVs | Boone Pickens

In explaining how Texas Commission Environmental Quality should utilize Volkswagen emmissions funds, 3 reasons against the agency proposal:

  • TCEQ is following the EPA’s favoritism for electic vehicle by offering funding up to 60 percent
    • government shouldnt pick winners and losers
  • Texas should use its own resources to achieve clean air- and that’s natural gas vehicles
  • “TCEQ should allow grantees to buy a vehicle to scrap”
