Starting in the new year, a new tax on electric vehicle (EV) charging stations has been implemented statewide.
The Wisconsin Department of Revenue is now collecting an excise tax of three cents per kilowatt-hour for the electricity used to charge EVs.
Charger owners and operators must also register their stations with state authorities.
Notably, this tax does not apply to residential chargers.
The revenue generated from this tax will be allocated for road maintenance.
