| 0:08.4 | automotive technology, trends, and transformation. I'm Molly Boygan, tech and innovation reporter at |
| 0:16.2 | Automotive News. And I'm Hannah Lutz, Director of Technology and Innovation Coverage. Today's guest is Camille |
| 0:22.8 | Terry, CEO and co-founder of Charger Health. Hannah spoke with Camille about why EV charging |
| 0:28.8 | attempts often fail, even when the chargers are online. Camille also explains why the charging |
| 0:34.9 | industry needs more standardization and consumer education. I think this is something that's interesting with the charging industry needs more standardization and consumer education. |
| 0:39.6 | I think this is something that's interesting with the charging industry is that it was |
