Senator Blumenthal visited Gyre9 to highlight recent federal investments to expand EV infrastructure and incentivize consumers to purchase EVs.
Signed into law in August, the Inflation Reduction Act will provide billions in direct consumer rebates and tax credits for consumers who purchase electric vehicles. Under federal investments in the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, Connecticut is slated to receive $52 million in federal funding to expand EV charging infrastructure across the state, more than $18 million of which has already been released, greatly supporting manufacturing companies like Gyre9.
Sen. Blumenthal met with Ed Gilchrest as well as the rest of the Gyre9 team.
