US Congress Will Direct Commission to Report on Fleet Electrification, Batteries
WASHINGTON (Sputnik) - The US Congress will direct a commission to report to lawmakers on the electrification of the United States’ vehicle fleets and battery supply chain policies, US Sen. Lindsey Graham said on Friday.
“We’re going to direct a commission to report back to the Congress about how we deal with electrification of the fleet, how we deal with the battery supply chain,” Graham said during a panel at the Munich Security Conference.
Batteries are becoming the “new oil,” Graham added.
However, the US’ vehicle fleets can be made low-carbon without all being electrified, Graham said, pointing to technologies such as hydrogen fuel.
Graham attended
the Munich Security Conference as part of a bipartisan, bicameral delegation of US lawmakers. The conference brings together nearly five hundred high-level leaders from around the world for discussions on international security policy.
