As the new year approaches, Wisconsin gears up for several legislative changes targeted at the state’s ecological footprint and its fiscal health, and as we bid goodbye to 2024, Wisconsinites who drive electric vehicles (EVs) should prepare for a new tax that kicks in with the turn of the calendar. Starting today, EV owners will be taxed 3 cents per kilowatt-hour when utilizing public charging stations; this move is positioned by the state to bolster the funding needed for road maintenance and infrastructure, which is increasingly urgent with the rising shift towards electric vehicles, according to WISN.
