In this chapter:
(1) “Direct-current fast charging station” means a charging system capable of delivering at least 50 kilowatts of direct-current electrical power to an electric vehicle’s rechargeable battery at a voltage of 200 volts or greater.
(2) “Electric vehicle” means a vehicle that is propelled by one or more electric motors using energy stored in the form of a rechargeable battery.
(3) “Electric vehicle charging provider” means the owner or operator of a public electric vehicle charging station. The term does not include an electric utility or transmission and distribution utility.
(4) “Electric vehicle charging service” means sales made from a public electric vehicle charging station to the public.
(5) “Level two charging station” means a charging system capable of delivering at least 3 and not more than 19.2 kilowatts of alternating-current electrical power to an electric vehicle’s rechargeable battery at a voltage of at least 208 volts on a circuit of at least 40 amperes.
(6) “Make-ready infrastructure” means the electrical infrastructure required to service a public electric vehicle charging station’s electrical load on the electric utility’s or transmission and distribution utility’s side of the point of delivery. The term:
(A) includes all site-specific electrical infrastructure required to accommodate engineering, physical, operational, or other constraints for the public electric vehicle charging station, regardless of whether the infrastructure is on the utility’s or customer’s side of the point of delivery; and
(B) does not include the public electric vehicle charging station or any utility infrastructure on the customer’s side of the point of delivery, up to and including the meter.
(7) “Public electric vehicle charging station” means any level two charging station or direct-current fast charging station that delivers electricity from a source outside an electric vehicle into an electric vehicle, is separate and distinct from make-ready infrastructure, and is accessible for commercial use by the public, or similar vehicle charging equipment capable of delivering electricity into an electric vehicle faster than a level two charging station. The term does not include vehicle charging equipment that is:
(A) used by an electric utility, a transmission and distribution utility, or an affiliate to charge:
(i) an electric vehicle owned by the utility or affiliate; or
(ii) as an incident of employment, an electric vehicle owned by an employee of the utility or affiliate; or
(B) located on the premises of a customer of an electric utility, a transmission and distribution utility, or an affiliate and:
(i) used by the customer or the customer’s tenants, affiliates, or guests; and
(ii) not used commercially for electric vehicle charging service.
