The sale of electric vehicles(EV’s) has slowed owing to the high cost of the current crop and the fears of some that they will be on a road trip and unable to ‘fill up’ with electricity to continue on their journey.  Clearly, the industry is continuing to work on better battery life, longer ranges and the glut of competitors to current industry leader, Tesla, will work to drive down the price of the cars over time.  Tesla has recently announced development of a model in the $30,000 range.  Along with that are great incentives from the federal government to hasten the transition from the internal combustion engine autos.  Joining us to discuss where this conversion stands is Rue Phillips, president and co-founder of SkillFusion, a digital customer service platform for training, certification, and compliance of Electric Vehicle Equipment Electricians, Technicians, and EV-ComTechs.  And while there are fewer parts in these cars, thus making maintenance less expensive, building out the charging stations and maintaining them will be a necessary skill to train people for.
