“When you look at disruptive technologies, historically, that have come to market, that 5% market share is a critical threshold. At that point, you begin to have enough of that technology in the market where consumers begin to pay attention and begin to adopt, beyond just those early adopter-type consumers”

“With all the EV-related manufacturing coming to the region, pressure is mounting in state houses to pass legislation that removes barriers and supports the expansion of EV charging infrastructure and EV ownership for consumers and fleet operators, so the products that companies are increasingly making in the Southeast can be purchased and driven by consumers and companies in the Southeast”
“The speed at which electric car, truck, and bus adoption will grow in the Southeast and the equitable access to the benefits of the growth depends largely on how the work of policymakers at the state and local level complements and enhances investments from industry and the federal government.”

“Only in an Orwellian world of misinformation do we see our nation's largest "public" power utility pass a massive rate increase while providing the public the least amount of information compared to "private" utilities. It's highly unusual for a utility the size of TVA to issue a rate increase with zero independent review. This is a broken process, and every ratepayer in the Tennessee Valley is literally paying the price.”
“Despite several utility-scale projects from TVA going into service, Alabama, Tennessee and Mississippi still have a lot of catching up to do. They all fall far short of other Southeast states … Unfortunately, the slow solar growth from TVA and other utilities operating in these states make it difficult to keep pace with the rest of the region.”
