双语新闻：特斯拉裁员危及美国超级充电站计划
Elon Musk's decision to gut Tesla's electric vehicle charging team is scrambling plans for rolling out new fast-charging stations and may delay US President Joe Biden's efforts to electrify the nation's highways.
埃隆·马斯克决定解散特斯拉的电动汽车充电团队，这一决定正在打乱推出新的快速充电站的计划，并可能推迟美国总统乔·拜登为全国高速公路供电的努力。
In 2023, the Biden administration announced rules for an ambitious plan to expand the country's charging infrastructure and jump-start EV adoption. Under the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure program, the government is doling out $5 billion to states over five years to build 500,000 public EV chargers.
2023年，拜登政府宣布了一项雄心勃勃的计划的规则，该计划旨在扩大国家的充电基础设施，并启动电动汽车的采用。根据国家电动汽车基础设施计划，政府将在五年内向各州拨款50亿美元，用于建造50万个公共电动汽车充电器。
EV market leader Tesla, which operates the largest network of fast chargers — called Superchargers — in the US and is the biggest winner of those federal funds so far, was seen as a crucial part of that plan.
电动汽车市场领导者特斯拉在美国运营着最大的快速充电网络——称为超级充电站，并且迄今为止是这些联邦资金的最大受益者，被视为该计划的关键部分。
Since news of Tesla's abrupt EV charging layoffs surfaced, however, executives at charging companies say they have been receiving phone calls from landlords looking for a new partner for their private charging projects after Tesla pulled out.
然而，自从特斯拉突然裁员电动汽车充电的消息浮出水面以来，充电公司的高管们表示，在特斯拉退出后，他们一直接到房东的电话，为他们的私人充电项目寻找新的合作伙伴。
Since the layoffs, Musk posted on his social media platform X that Tesla plans "to grow the Supercharger network, just at a slower pace for new locations and more focus on 100 percent uptime and expansion of existing locations".
自裁员以来，马斯克在他的社交媒体平台X上发帖称，特斯拉计划“继续扩展超级充电网络，只是新地点的增长速度会放缓，并更多地关注现有地点的100%正常运行时间和扩展”。
A spokesperson for the federal Joint Office of Energy and Transportation, which oversees the NEVI program, said in an email it does not expect individual business decisions to affect EV charging projects funded by the government.
负责监督NEVI项目的联邦能源和交通联合办公室发言人在一封电子邮件中表示，预计个人商业决策不会影响政府资助的电动汽车充电项目。
Colorado will adjust its program as needed, said Kay Kelly, chief of innovative mobility for the Colorado Department of Transportation. Texas — the biggest beneficiary of NEVI funds — said it does not anticipate any effect from Tesla's layoffs.
科罗拉多州交通部创新交通主管Kay Kelly表示，科罗拉多州将根据需要调整其计划。新能源汽车基金的最大受益者得克萨斯州表示，预计特斯拉裁员不会产生任何影响。
Tesla's change of plans, however, will affect the entire EV industry. Almost all automakers decided in 2023 to adopt Tesla's North American Charging Standard for their vehicles from 2025. That could provide a silver lining for other charging startups — and recently laid-off Tesla employees.
然而，特斯拉计划的改变将影响整个电动汽车行业。2023年，几乎所有汽车制造商都决定从2025年起采用特斯拉的北美充电标准。这可能会给其他充电初创公司以及最近被解雇的特斯拉员工带来一线希望。
"There will be a lot more NEVI sites available if Tesla backs out of projects they have already won, or withdraw their applications," Rick Wilmer, CEO of charging company ChargePoint, said. "It will be an opportunity for others to jump in and fill that void."
充电公司ChargePoint的首席执行官Rick Wilmer表示：“如果特斯拉退出他们已经赢得的项目，或者撤回他们的申请，将会有更多的新能源汽车站点可用”。“这将是其他人加入进来填补这一空白的机会。”
