Georgia requires public electric vehicle charging stations to comply with statewide measurement and disclosure rules administered by the Department of Agriculture, ensuring uniform pricing units and accuracy regardless of city.
Under O.C.G.A. Title 10, Chapter 1, Article 22, and Department of Agriculture rules adopted in 2023, commercial EV charging stations must display price per kilowatt-hour, meet National Institute of Standards and Technology Handbook 44 accuracy standards, and be registered with the state. Local governments may regulate zoning and installation siting but cannot impose conflicting metrology, pricing-display, or registration requirements. The law applies to any station where customers pay for charging, including those at retail centers and public parking lots.
Operating a non-registered or inaccurate commercial charger can result in administrative fines, station shutdown orders, and civil penalties from the Department of Agriculture.
