Tesla’s NACS standard has been gathering momentum for weeks. General Motors (NYSE:GM) and Ford have said they would embrace Tesla’s NACS, shunning earlier efforts by the Biden administration to make the Combined Charging System (CCS) the dominant charging standard in the United States.

On Tuesday the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) said it would start an expedited process to review NACS as a potential public standard.

“The new SAE NACS connector standard will be developed on an expedited timeframe and is one of several key initiatives to strengthen the North American EV charging infrastructure,” the engineers group said in a statement.
