This brief defines key indicators that outline the state of transportation electrification in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee (‘Southeast’). Overall, the Southeast is behind other regions in the country in terms of passenger EV adoption, EV charging deployment, government funding, and utility investment in transportation electrification. However, the region claims a large proportion of the nation’s passenger EV manufacturing investment and employment which is on the rise with new models entering the market. The region is also home to several medium- and heavy-duty manufacturing facilities as well as EV charging station manufacturers that all stand to grow through an expansion of the EV market in the region.
