The Cybersecurity and Hardware Assurance for Resilient Grid Electrification Act, or CHARGE Act, proposes to amend Title 49 of the United States Code to address national security and grid stability concerns related to electric vehicles (EVs). Specifically, the bill prohibits the sale, import, or introduction into interstate commerce of electric vehicles or their associated equipment, including vehicle charge power control components , if they are manufactured in whole or in part by a foreign entity of concern . This measure is driven by findings highlighting the growing presence of foreign-manufactured EVs, particularly from China, in the global market and their potential future impact on the U.S. automotive sector. Congress expresses concern over the vulnerability of the electrical grid to manipulation and disruption, especially through Vehicle-to-Grid (VTG) initiatives, if a coordinated attack were launched using vehicles from adversarial manufacturers. The bill defines "foreign entity of concern" and "vehicle charge power control component" to clearly delineate the scope of the prohibition. By restricting these vehicles and components, the CHARGE Act seeks to safeguard the U.S. electrical infrastructure from potential cyber threats and ensure the resilience of the national grid. The legislation underscores the significant economic and national security risks posed by a potential grid failure, emphasizing the need for secure EV integration.
