The Southern Alliance for Clean Energy (SACE) and Atlas Public Policy crunched numbers for the 2024 end-of-year state and regional updates linked above to layer the most current information onto our fifth annual “Transportation Electrification in the Southeast” report, published on October 28, 2024.
The October report benchmarks progress on transportation electrification from July 2023 through June 2024 in SACE’s six-state region: Alabama, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee. The updated supplemental state and regional pages linked above capture updated data covering January through December, 2024. The year-long metrics dig into the Southeast’s momentum across electric vehicle (EV) market indicators such as economic and workforce development, EV sales and charging infrastructure deployment, and government and electric utility funding.
The end-of-year 2024 data shows that the electric car, truck, and bus markets continue to grow substantially across nearly all indicators. The biggest EV stories from our region remain focused on manufacturing investments and jobs, with Georgia at the helm at $25.5 billion in investments and over 27,000 anticipated jobs. North Carolina continues to hold the #2 spot regionally, ahead of #3 Tennessee and #4 South Carolina.
