Wisconsin announced the winners of the round 1 NEVI site awards on 5/24/2024. With 53 sites selected from 250+ applications. A total of $23.3 million dollars of federal money allocated to bring DCFC throughout Wisconsin. The convenience store chain Kwik Trip was awarded one third of the money ($8.1 million) to install 24 of the 53 sites. The officials have listed in the FAQ for this release that 46 out of the 53 awarded sites expect to install SAE J3400 connectors in addition to the required CCS1. We also know from the Wisconsin Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (WEVI) website that there will be many different hardware solutions implemented; “WEVI charging stations use many different charging station models, including Aliptronic America, ChargePoint, Jule, Kempower, Red E Charge, SK Signet, Tellus Power Green, and Tesla.”

Plover
Part of the 23-site award to Kwik Trip. The address here is 5339 Harding Ave, Plover, WI 54467. Kwik Trip looks to be using a white label solution of the Gilbarco Veeder-Root Konect system. This company is a major player in the gas pump business, and now they are getting into EV chargers. The hardware looks like S/K Signet units from the brochure, but I could also see a partnership with Kempower.
Mosinee
The Quality Inn Central Wisconsin Airport at 400 Orbiting Dr, Mosinee, WI 54455 will host this site. Universal EV won the bid for this site. Best guess for their equipment solution is Blink NEVI units.

Green Bay
The first of three awarded sites in Green Bay. Here the Oneida Casino at 2522 W Mason St, Green Bay, WI 54303 will host. The site is awarded to Oneida Engineering Solutions and they will be using Red E Charge as the CPO. Based on this we can expect to see the rebadged Autel units at this site.

Greenfield
The award lists a Tesla Supercharger at 4777 S 27th St, Greenfield, WI 53221. Currently at this address is a Festival Foods. There is an existing Tesla Supercharger about 2 miles away at a Meijer. I am going to guess the address is wrong and the money awarded will go towards upgrading the existing Supercharger location at 5800 W Layton Ave, Greenfield, WI 53220. This will we a Tesla owned and operated site.
Milwaukee
The Residence Inn by Marriott Milwaukee at 7003 N Port Washington Rd, Milwaukee, WI 53217 will be the host for this award. Site award has gone to Francis Energy. As with their other NEVI site awards, based on the contract with S/K Signet, we can expect to see that hardware at these sites.
Sheboygan
The Sleep Inn & Suites at 3912 Motel Rd, Sheboygan, WI 53081 will host this next awarded site. Site award has gone to Francis Energy. As with their other NEVI site awards, based on the contract with S/K Signet, we can expect to see that hardware at these sites.
Manitowoc
The Shell gas station at 1701 S 41st St, Manitowoc, WI 54220 is the site awardee for this location. This site is awarded to EvGateway. Equipment is planned as Tellus Power NEVI units.
Green Bay
The second of three site awards in Green Bay goes to Festival Foods at 2534 Steffens Court, Green Bay, 54311. CPO will be Jule and installed hardware will be NEVI compliant battery backed charging solution at this site.
La Cosse
Part of the 23-site award to Kwik Trip. The address here is 1133 George St W, La Crosse, WI 54603. There doesn't seem to be a lot of space to install chargers at this location. Kwik Trip looks to be using a white label solution of the Gilbarco Veeder-Root Konect system. This company is a major player in the gas pump business, and now they are getting into EV chargers. The hardware looks like S/K Signet units from the brochure, but I could also see a partnership with Kempower.
Tomah
The truck stop chain Road Ranger will host the site at 102 E Woody St, Tomah, WI 54660. This site was awarded the most money of all 53 sites. At almost $1 million this should be a nice site. Operator or CPO is unknown. Equipment is unknown.
Baraboo
Part of the 23-site award to Kwik Trip. The address here is 1171 Wisconsin Dells Pkwy S, Baraboo, WI 53913. Kwik Trip looks to be using a white label solution of the Gilbarco Veeder-Root Konect system. This company is a major player in the gas pump business, and now they are getting into EV chargers. The hardware looks like S/K Signet units from the brochure, but I could also see a partnership with Kempower.
Portage
The TA Travel Center gas station at 5800 Kinney Rd, Portage, WI 53901, was awarded this site. This has been confirmed to be a planned part of the BP Pulse network. In what is a change from what BP Pulse has installed in the past, this is expected to use Alpitronic hardware. This hardware shift may be due to the local in Wisconsin manufacture of the Alpitronic units.
Deforest
The Shell gas station at 6162 US Hwy 51, Deforest, WI 53532 is the site awardee for this location. This site is awarded to EvGateway. Equipment is planned as Tellus Power NEVI units.
Edgerton
Edgerton Truck Stop at 568 Haugen Rd, Edgerton, WI 53534 was awarded this site. This site is awarded to the owners of the truck stop. They may be planning to partner with Kwik Trip as part of the large Wisconsin build out.
Janesville
This is the other Tesla awarded site. The award listed address 3222 US-14, Janesville, WI 53546 is one mile away from the existing Supercharger at 2915 N Lexington Dr, Janesville, WI 53545. I expect that this award will go towards upgrading this existing site, not making a new site.
Menomonie
Part of the 23-site award to Kwik Trip. The address here is 319 Oak Ave, Menomonie, WI 54751. At less than $100k this is tied for the smallest award.

This company is a major player in the gas pump business, and now they are getting into EV chargers.

Mercer
Snow’s Family Market at 5126 US-51, Mercer, WI 54547 will host this site. As a farther north site, there is strong potential that battery backed up solution would be best for this site install. This site will be run by Universal EV. I have guessed Blink NEVI hardware, but this site may be different due to the location.

Saint Croix Falls
Part of the 23-site award to Kwik Trip. The address here is 2072 W 130th Ave Us Highway 8, St Croix Falls, WI 54024. While this looks like a new gas station, it does not appear to be any prep work has been done to bring additional power to this site.

The Fairbridge Inn Express Ladysmith at 800 College Ave, Ladysmith, WI 54847 will host this site. There don’t appear to be any other amenities at this location. Site award has gone to Francis Energy.

Rhinelander
The Culver’s at 620 W Kemp St, Rhinelander, WI 54501 will host this site. The money awarded for this site is the second highest amount. In Google Maps you can see there is a fairly large electrical substation almost across the street, so hopefully electric power access won’t be an issue for this site. Zero6 is the award winner with the plan to use ChargePoint Express units at this site.
Crandon
Potawatomi Fire Side Market at 5326 Fire Keeper Rd, Crandon, WI 54520 was awarded this site. The site was awarded to Potawatomi Ventures with the CPO being Red E Charge. We can expect the Red E Charge branded units here.
Armstrong Creek
The Corner Store at 497 US-8, Armstrong Creek, WI 54103, was awarded this site. Looking at this site on Google this in the northern reaches of Wisconsin with likely limited infrastructure. Being isolated this site is very likely to use an onsite battery backup. Installation in the given space should be interesting to follow. This site will be run by Universal EV. I have guessed Blink NEVI hardware, but this site may be different due to the location.
Chippewa Falls
Part of the 23-site award to Kwik Trip. The address here is 1267 Chippewa Crossing Blvd, Chippewa Falls, WI 54729. This is new location opened within the last year. If they planned for charging in the infrastructure build up, then installing charging here should be relatively easy; which would explain the low award amount for this site.

The hardware looks like S/K Signet units from the brochure, but I could also see a partnership with Kempower.
Thorp
The Express Mart at 602 S Washington St, Thorp, WI 54771, was awarded this site. Looking at this site on Google Street View doesn’t show a lot of space to install charging hardware for 4 different parking spots. Installation in the given space should be interesting to follow. CPO will be Jule and installed hardware will be NEVI compliant battery backed charging solution at this site.
Abbotsford
Part of the 23-site award to Kwik Trip. The address here is 301 Elderberry Rd, Abbotsford, WI 54405. Kwik Trip looks to be using a white label solution of the Gilbarco Veeder-Root Konect system.

Hatley
The BP gas station at 401 State Rd, Hatley, WI 54440, was awarded this site. This award is to GPM Southeast, a large convenience store group that has won many other site awards in other states. The plans show they will use Jule as the CPO and hardware solution.
