HB 5013 Connecticut House · 2026 Regular Session

AN ACT ESTABLISHING A FEE AND TAX RELATED TO ELECTRIC VEHICLES.

HB 5013 establishes a registration fee for electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, and imposes a per-kilowatt-hour tax on electricity purchased at public electric vehicle charging stations. This bill directly affects EV owners through the new registration fee and charging station operators through the electricity tax. Revenue from both the fee and tax must be deposited into the Special Transportation Fund. The legislation aims to generate dedicated funding for transportation infrastructure without specifying how the money will be spent beyond this allocation.
