Governor signs bills creating electric vehicle charging station network across Wisconsin
Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers has signed bipartisan bills designed to create a statewide electric vehicles charging network. The new laws free up nearly $80 million in federal construction aid and makes it easier for businesses to operate the electric vehicle charging stations. The measures were backed by businesses and environmentalists alike and cheered as a way for Wisconsin to expand its electric vehicle charging network. A broad array of Wisconsin businesses and organizations supported the measures, which cleared the Legislature with broad bipartisan support. The federal money is intended to jump-start construction of stations along Wisconsin interstates and highways, with federal guidance calling for stations no more than 50 miles apart.
