Bill > H0185

This bill amends and adds to existing law to establish provisions regarding electric fuel tax for commercial electric vehicles. Specifically, the bill: - Imposes an eight-tenths of a cent ($0.008) per kilowatt hour tax on electric fuel received by distributors for use in commercial vehicles, in addition to the existing 32-cent per gallon tax on motor fuel. - Requires electric fuel receivers to use meters to measure electric fuel distributed to commercial vehicles and to separately state the electric fuel tax on any invoices or billing documents. - Exempts electric suppliers from needing a motor fuel distributor license unless they distribute electric fuel to their own commercial vehicles. - Requires documentation of electric fuel meters for charging stations installed before December 1, 2023, and licensing for stations installed after that date. - Authorizes the state tax commission to promulgate rules to implement the electric fuel tax provisions. - Adds references to "electric fuel" throughout the existing fuels tax laws. The bill takes effect on July 1, 2023.
