Drivers in New Jersey who purchase an electric vehicle will—for the first time since 2004—have to pay sales tax on the transaction. The return of the EV sales tax comes on the heels of the July 2024 introduction of a new annual electric vehicle fee of $250 in addition to the existing vehicle registration fee. The new fee is considered to be a road-use fee, and the funds it brings in will ostensibly be used for road and bridge repairs and improvements.

With the first wave of the energy transition, renewable energy sources (such as solar and wind) have begun replacing coal power generation. However, some sectors are lagging behind and struggling to decarbonize more than others, including large-scale transportation like commercial aviation, shipping, and rail transit. Electrofuels (aka eFuels) are the next generation of solutions to help the hardest-to-abate sectors pivot from their reliance on fossil fuels.
