AI, of course, stands for artificial intelligence and you know EV as our favorite little acronym for electric vehicles. The state of Michigan, for example, is using AI to help transportation planners decide where to put EV charging stations. But, how is AI helping with EVs in the United States of America (and other countries)?

That means we’ll be powering some miles with increasingly renewable electricity that isn't made from imported oil. Using existing technology, we can convert many of them into plug-in hybrids and electric vehicles. We won’t need new power plants, since we have enough off-peak electricity to recharge as many retrofits as we can build.
