# Seattle Plans 200 Curbside EV Chargers

Seattle City Light and the Seattle Department of Transportation plan to install up to 200 curbside Level 2 EV chargers across Seattle by 2030, expanding a pilot that placed 58 chargers at 31 locations. The voter-approved Seattle Transportation Levy funds the project, and residents can submit proposed locations through fall 2027. No vendor solicitation, contract value, or procurement contact has been identified, so the plan represents a potential future opportunity rather than an active bid for contractors.

- The buildout could create future demand for charging equipment, installation, operations, and maintenance services.
- Companies serving municipal EV infrastructure projects can use the planned scale and pilot experience to assess their capabilities and potential fit for future procurement.
- The resident location application period runs through fall 2027; it is for proposing charger locations, not a contractor proposal deadline.
