The Joint Office of Energy and Technology, established in 2021 to facilitate cooperation between the Departments of Transportation and Energy on electric vehicles (EVs), has been severely affected by federal job cuts. Despite being a priority for the Biden administration, staffing has dwindled to zero full-time employees following a series of resignations. Gabe Klein, the founding director, noted that while the office wasn't a direct target of dismantling, it was caught in broader job reduction efforts, leading to its decline as it struggles to maintain its purpose amidst ongoing political tensions.
The Joint Office of Energy and Technology was initially created to enhance EV charger rollout but now has transitioned to a nearly defunct status amid job cuts.
As federal job cuts mount, the Joint Office has faded significantly, losing all full-time federal employees without any specific dismantling orders against it.
