Wisconsin recently passed legislation establishing a 3 cent per kWh Consumption Tax for Retail sale public charging. ($0.30 per 10 kWh) It is designed to be equivalent to the state Gas tax which is $0.34 per gallon.

The Tax is earmarked specifically to support Public EV infrastructure expansion. That said the State is not allowed to own or operate public use EV chargers. They can only own or operate EV charging stations for state owned fleet vehicles. They can Lease state owned land to a Private Charge point network operator to place EV charging stations on public lands like Rest Areas.

Meanwhile, they didn’t repeal or reduce the previous EV surcharges imposed over the past 4 years. $175 BEV $75 Hybrid defined any vehicle which uses electric and gasoline

Yeah I just need the letter of the law that defines what a hybrid is, the state appears to be taxing anything that remotely resembles a hybrid like vehicle the plug in hybrid tax even though mild hybrids should be exempt per the original wording.
