Amidst the growing number of electric vehicles on our nation’s roadways, state transportation officials are challenged to ensure electric vehicle drivers contribute to the construction and maintenance of the transportation infrastructure they use. As states begin to expand their electric vehicle charging infrastructure, many are considering levying a per kilowatt-hour excise tax on electricity use at public electric vehicle charging stations.
ARTBA’s Transportation Investment Advocacy Center has created a one-page guide on electric vehicle charging station fees.

This document is part of a series of one-page guides on transportation funding methods. View the TIAC Funding Techniques page for additional handouts.
