Louisville goes electric, Waymo gets $5B, Ford brings production to Michigan

Todayโ€™s episode of Quick Charge is a story of, โ€œThanks, Joe Biden!โ€ as Ford and LG ink a deal to bring EV battery manufacturing back to Michigan, the city of Louisville gets the nationโ€™s first all-electric garbage truck fleet, and Waymo gets a massive $5.6 billion cash injection.

Weโ€™ve also got a hydrogen-powered steal battle tank from Hyundai (yes, Hyundai) thatโ€™s designed to be incredibly hard to kill and a clever solar carport at the Cincinnati Zoo that promises to make the experience better for everyone in the family.
