Its objectives are to create new jobs, jump-start the economy, reduce greenhouse gas emissions and lessen the country's dependence on fossil fuel. The EV Project includes 16 cities and major metropolitan areas in six states, and will result in the installation of approximately 15,000 charging stations by June 2011.
