  "definition": "Electricity prices are based on residential rates for light-duty vehicles because a majority of vehicle charging happens at home. These prices are lower than at most public or commercial medium/heavy-duty fleet charging stations because they do not include costs for infrastructure development, maintenance, operation, electric demand charges, and network/host fees and profits. Residential prices also exclude fees meant to replace motor fuel taxes that 26 states have adopted and more are developing (per Consumer Reports(PDF)). As of 2019, 25 states collect fees from plug-in electric vehicle owners for road use and other transportation costs traditionally covered by fuel taxes. These fees range by state from $50 to $200 per year (per Consumer Reports(PDF)). Prices for electricity start in 2011 when the availability of commercial vehicles and charging stations became significant in the market.",
