Anyone else following this news from yesterday? Here is the article from Electrek. Take a look at their take on the announcement. If only one automaker decides to adopt Tesla’s connector, or now the North American Charging Standard (NACS), it would qualify Tesla’s Supercharger network for the NEVI funds. After this announcement was made, Aptera announced they would be using the Tesla connector. This might qualify Tesla to receive the funds, without having to put CCS on their network.
Tesla announced that it is opening its electric car charge connector in the hope of making it the new standard in North America.
