Wisconsin EV Policy

Home to a significant manufacturing footprint. Wisconsin has the the opportunity to become a major player in the electric vehicle and battery supply chain sector. But doing so requires additional investment and workforce development. 

In total, more than 230,000 jobs have been created in the EV sector across the United States. As of August 2024, $125 million in private investments has been poured into the Wisconsin EV manufacturing industry, spurred by approximately $68 million in federal funding. Prominent Wisconsin investments are shown on the map below.

These investments are bolstering American manufacturing and supply chains, which is critical at a time when China has a head start in the global transition to electric transportation. Read more about how electric vehicles can benefit Wisconsin.
