Colorado Decarbonizes with Electric Vehicles

Colorado has a Clean Energy Plan that Embraces Emission-Free Transportation

In a bid to go green, electric vehicles show promise to Colorado policymakers. Indeed, the famously progressive state’s pioneer mentality goes far beyond being a cannabis legalization pioneer. The home of the Rockies eyes ambitious clean energy targets, and sees zero-emission driving as an invaluable weapon in the climate fight.

Moreover, the state wants greenhouse gas emissions to fall by 26% by 2025. Afterward, that percentage jumps to 50 in 2030, and 90 in 2050.

Meanwhile, the federal government’s clean energy plan is under much criticism.

EVs Equal Eco-Friendly

Granted, the Trump Administration labeled lithium a mineral of vital importance to national economic health.

Nevertheless, Colorado is lightyears ahead of Washington in clean energy policy. Furthermore, it believes that EVs will play a major role in national and global decarbonization success.

Ultimately, reports suggest EV adoption in Colorado will reduce 2040 emissions by 42%.

American EV Action

Colorado is likely to become a clean energy leader in the years to come. The state will play a major role in national EV adoption. Indeed, the lessons and innovations that eventually emerge out of Colorado will serve as a case study for other states.
