While I don't know about this specific policy, I'm happy that the push to electric vehicles (and hopefully carbon-free energy) is happening worldwide. This is one of the big areas we need to do absolutely immediately.

Otherlab founder Saul Griffith has a great analysis about why electrifying cars and more of our technology is so necessary in the US here: https://medium.com/otherlab-news/decarbonization-and-gnd-b8d...

> "Without changing the size of our homes, or our cars, or fundamentally changing the fabric of our lives, a fully electrified energy economy using non-carbon fuel sources would require less than half of the total amount of energy we use today."

Your next car should be electric.
