Charging Up Future Travel in New England, and the Genesis Foundation's Gift to Children in Need

Electric vehicles are becoming more commonplace and accessible. While that's good, there's another side to the story - do we have enough electricity to power them? And can our infrastructure handle the demand? Colette Lamontagne, Director of Energy Storage and Transportation Development at National Grid, joins Nichole to break down the data of a new study that takes a closer look at how Massachusetts will need to upgrade as we make our way into a more electrified world. For more than 40 years, the Genesis Foundation has helped to provide critical care to children with rare genetic diseases and their families. It was founded by a beloved member of the WBZ-AM family, the late Dr. Murray Feingold. Foundation President Matthew Hoffman talks with Nichole about a new gift to Mass General for Children to establish the Feingold Fund, which aims to help more children in need receive wrap-around care from diagnosis straight through adulthood.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
