Energy Transition Talk: “Electrification of Transportation and Reimagining Mobility”
RFF Fellow Beia Spiller joins this podcast for a wide-ranging discussion about the current and future state of electric transportation and mobility equity.
“The United States bought over 1 million EVs through the end of 2023, which made almost 8 percent of all vehicles sold in the United States and 20 percent of auto sales in California. Globally, 9.5 million EVs were sold in 2023, a 31 percent increase from the prior year. But is this progress fast enough?
In today’s episode, we talk with Dr. Beia Spiller—Transportation Program Director at Resources for the Future (RFF), a nonprofit that conducts economic and policy research on topics including energy and transportation—about the current state and the future of electric transportation, the related equity and environmental justice challenges we face, and how we can rethink mobility.”
