On today's episode of Quick Charge, the Trump administration has lost its first battle against state's rights in California while Tesla faces down (what it's calling) a union coup in Germany. Meanwhile, SoCal Edison puts 280 Chevy Silverado EV pickups to work on California's roads and Colorado is putting up a bunch of new DC fast chargers.

We've also got a possible Honda-Nissan-Mitsubishi merger shaping up in Japan, some dumb thieves in China, 130 new hybrid bucket trucks getting to work in the northeast, and a massive, twin-rotor wind turbine that is finally online.
