Proponents of electric vehicle operation in Kentucky are hoping to see some modification in a related tax measure. The tax on EV charging stations is slated to go into effect in 2024.
The Kentucky General Assembly set in motion the three cent per kilowatt hour excise tax on level two, so-called slow chargers. Initially proposed for 2023, it was then pushed back until this January. Mike Proctor is with Evolve Kentucky, a nonprofit electric vehicle advocacy group. He said part of the aim was to capture revenue from EV operators traveling through the Commonwealth.
