Government policy

As of 2022, the state government offers tax rebates of up to $1,000 for electric vehicle purchases.[2]

As of 2021, the state government charges a $100 registration fee for electric vehicles, and $75 for plug-in hybrid vehicles.[3]

Charging stations

As of February 2022, there were 380 public charging stations in Wisconsin.[4]

The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, signed into law in November 2021, allocates US$79 million to charging stations in Wisconsin.[5]

In June 2022, the state government released a plan to recognize I-90, I-94, I-43, I-41, I-535, US-53, and US-151 as alternative fuel corridors.[6] Around half of all public charging stations in the state are within one mile of a corridor.[7]
