FILE- In this file photo made May 26, 2010, people look over the battery array of an all-electric Nissan Leaf in Smyrna, Tenn. Nissan North America, Inc. held its ground-breaking ceremony Wednesday for a lithium-ion battery plant as part of its plan to start building electric cars and eventually create up to 1,300 jobs in Tennessee.

After all, what good is going green if you get stranded with a dead battery? It's a fear that automakers must overcome as they push to sell more battery-powered cars. So government and business are taking steps to reassure drivers by building up the nation's network of electric charging stations. (AP Photo/Mark Humphrey, File)
