Frequently asked questions
Straightforward answers to what people usually ask before installing an EV charger or hiring an installer in Kentucky.
Yes. Kentucky requires electric-vehicle and plug-in hybrid owners to pay an annual fee in addition to standard vehicle-registration fees; electric motorcycles have a separate annual fee. The amounts are adjusted annually using the National Highway Construction Cost Index 2.0, so an older published fee should not be treated as the current renewal amount. Check the current Kentucky Transportation Cabinet or county clerk renewal information before paying, because the applicable annual fee changes with the index.
No statewide consumer rebate for purchasing or leasing an electric vehicle is listed in the U.S. Department of Energy’s current Kentucky laws-and-incentives summary. Kentucky’s current EV-related state entries focus on public charging grants, charging-station taxes, and infrastructure planning rather than a statewide vehicle-purchase rebate. That does not rule out federal incentives or programs offered by a utility, dealer, local government, or another administrator with separate eligibility and funding rules. Buyers should confirm the current program administrator, service area, funding status, and requirements before relying on an incentive.
Kentucky requires EV charging-station owners and lessees to pay an excise tax, plus a surtax when a charging station is on state property. Station operators add the tax to the electricity selling price. The rate is reviewed against the National Highway Construction Cost Index 2.0 each year and adjusted by January 1, subject to a maximum 5% annual increase or decrease, so customers should not rely on an older per-kWh tax amount. If a station provides free electricity, the operator is responsible for the tax on stations installed after June 30, 2022.
Kentucky participates in the federal National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Formula Program. The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet has submitted annually updated EV Infrastructure Deployment Plans for fiscal years 2022 through 2026 describing how it intends to distribute NEVI funding and address related physical and cybersecurity requirements. Planned or funded sites should not be treated as operating chargers. Before a trip, drivers should verify a station’s live status, connector type, power level, payment method, and access conditions through the charging network or a live station map.
