Wisconsin Looks to Expand EV Charging

The Wisconsin Department of Transportation held a webinar to discuss how they plan on expanding public access to electric vehicle charging stations throughout the state, WMTV has reported.

With the rising trends of electric vehicles, WisDOT wanted to address their new program and how it will expand to provide comfort to those with electric vehicles. They understood that one of the biggest concerns when it came to switching over to an electric vehicle was the anxiety that drivers won’t be able to get to their destination with one charge and there wasn’t access to any charging stations along their route.

Under the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure system, WisDOT estimates they will receive about $78.65 million over the next five years. With these funds, they hope to develop a network of publicly accessible charging stations along Wisconsin’s Alternative Fuel Corridors.
