Explore the Washington State Plan for Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Deployment.
NEVI funding restored
On June 24, the U.S. District Court's Western District of Washington restored Washington’s NEVI funding. On July 2, our NEVI state plans were restored and on July 8, funding was obligated. We immediately restarted the program and are currently reviewing Round 1 proposals. Round 1 closed in January 2025 and we are not accepting new applications at this time. We anticipate announcing up to $25 million in Round 1 awards in December and releasing the Round 2 funding opportunity this winter.

Slow down on ice and snow.
It's easier to skid or lose control traveling at higher speeds. Give yourself more time to stop.
Carry chains, practice installing them.
Winter conditions could mean chains are required on your route. Practice putting them on your vehicle ahead of time.
Pack your winter car kit.
Carry extra supplies like warm clothing, ice scraper and brush, jumper cables and other emergency items.
