Tax breaks for some nonprofit charging stations

Beginning January 1, 2027, Georgia exempts qualifying charging electricity from motor-fuel, road, and state sales and use taxes. The station must have been operating as of January 1, 2025, on a federal interstate right of way. It must be owned or run by a Section 501(c)(3) tax-exempt nonprofit. The station must provide the electricity without payment or anything else in exchange. The tax breaks apply to qualifying station operations; the law does not state how much users save.
