EV Charging in Wyoming
Wyoming has the lowest EV adoption in the continental US. No state rebate, no ZEV mandate, and an economy built around fossil fuels. NEVI investments are building critical charging gaps on I-80 and I-25. Jackson Hole and Yellowstone access are the primary EV tourism use cases.

EV time-of-use rates
rareRocky Mountain Power and Black Hills Energy (including Cheyenne Light, Fuel and Power) serve most Wyoming residential customers. Neither publishes a dedicated residential EV time-of-use rate. Rocky Mountain Power offers an optional residential TOU schedule in Wyoming but no EV-specific plan.
Net metering / solar+EV
full retailWyoming requires investor-owned utilities and electric cooperatives to credit net metering customers with systems up to 25 kW at the full retail rate. Rocky Mountain Power and Black Hills Energy use a kWh credit system with annual true-up at avoided cost for any unused balance. The 25 kW cap applies across customer classes, which limits the program for larger commercial installations.
Right to charge
No statewide statuteWyoming has no right-to-charge statute. HOAs and condominium associations may lawfully restrict or prohibit EV charging station installation, subject only to general architectural-review obligations under the governing documents.
EV registration fees
Wyoming reduced its annual EV decal fee from $200 to $100 per state legislation taking effect in the 2025-2026 timeframe. The decal program is administered alongside the state's alternative fuels tax, and operators should confirm current PHEV treatment with WYDOT before assuming a separate rate applies.
EV: $100/year
PHEV: None
Public charging network
Tesla Supercharger and ChargePoint have minimal presence in Cheyenne, Casper, and Jackson. I-80 (the primary east-west US highway) has significant charging gaps through Wyoming, one of the most cited EV range challenges on cross-country travel. NEVI investments are the primary mechanism for addressing this.
Station-network counts for Wyoming will appear here once the next AFDC ingest runs.
Regulatory Environment
Wyoming is a major oil, gas, and coal producing state with strong political opposition to EV mandates. The state has no ZEV mandate and no plans to adopt California's standards. WYDOT is administering NEVI corridor funds, which represent Wyoming's primary EV infrastructure investment.
