NASA plans to build a 100-kilowatt nuclear reactor on the moon by 2030 to enhance space exploration capabilities, driven by geopolitical competition with China and Russia, and aiming to establish a sustainable lunar presence and future missions to Mars.
A recent report by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory estimates that it will cost the U.S. between $55 billion and $127 billion to supply the necessary charging infrastructure for the expected 33 million EVs on the road by 2030. This includes 182,000 public-facing fast-charging ports, one million Level 2 chargers, and 26.8 million Level 1 and 2 chargers at homes and private offices. With only 148,000 chargers currently installed and the struggle to produce EVs locally and affordably, reaching the idealistic deadline will be an expensive challenge.
