In Texas, Tesla Could Be Just the Start of Something Big ([link removed] )
TX EV Supply Chain blog post image-745 ([link removed] ) Over the summer, headlines proclaimed the news that Tesla, the global leader in electric vehicles (EVs), had decided to locate its next U.S. factory in Austin. Recently, Tesla’s famed founder, Elon Musk, even announced that he would be moving to Texas himself. None of this should come as a surprise. Texas has long been a leader in energy of all sorts, including advanced energy technologies like wind and solar power, so it’s only natural to add EVs to the mix. "Everything's bigger in Texas, and that includes Tesla," said Gov. Greg Abbott in a video interview posted to Twitter. “Tesla is moving here because of the free market principles that allow it to come here and be an innovator without government dictates… Texas will be number one in energy, including clean energy.” By welcoming Tesla, Texas has earned a place at the forefront of the forthcoming electric transportation revolution – and a new analysis shows Tesla could be just the start.

Top Energy Policy Trends From 2020 – and How They Can Inform Your 2021 Energy Plans ([link removed] )
SED Border ([link removed] ) Smart Energy Decisions published AEE's Caitlin Marquis's article on the Top Energy Policy Trends of 2020: "The year 2020 was certainly one for the history books, and for many of us, the cycle of bad news throwing wrenches into our lives and our livelihoods could not have ended soon enough. In terms of energy policy, however, the year brought some good along with the bad. As companies lay out their energy plans for 2021, it’s worth reflecting on the trends that dominated energy policy in 2020 and will be shaping the debate for the year ahead."

Will Texas Be the Detroit of Electric Vehicles? ([link removed] )
Live on Wednesday, January 27, at 2pm ET/1pm CT
TX EV WEBINAR ([link removed] )
With construction of a Tesla factory outside Austin underway, Texas is guaranteed a central place in the transition to electric transportation. But it turns out there are already 7,000 Texans working in electric transportation-related business, and more than 400,000 workers and 5,000 Texas companies are in “adjacent” industries and occupations that stand to grow as transportation in the United States goes electric. Drawing on the new report, “Electric Transportation Supply Chain in Texas,” prepared by BW Research Partnership for the Texas Advanced Energy Business Alliance, this webinar, presented by TAEBA and AEE, will look at the opportunities in Texas and other states to enter the auto, truck, and bus industry as it converts from gasoline and diesel to electric power.
Panelists:
-
Suzanne Bertin, Managing Director, Texas Advanced Energy Business Alliance
-
Phil Jordan, Vice President, and Principal, BW Research Partnership
-
Sara Rafalson, Senior Director, Market Development, EVgo
