Kenmore Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Plan (EVIP)
The City of Kenmore engaged Accenture and Energeia to develop the Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Plan (EVIP) to support the City’s transition to clean, sustainable transportation by developing a robust, accessible, and future-ready electric vehicle (EV) charging network.
This initiative aligns with local and regional climate action goals and aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions while preparing the city for the projected growth in EV adoption. conduct the technical modeling of EV adoption, charging energy needs, charger siting and grid integration for the City of Kenmore’s fleet electrification and EV infrastructure plan. This plan aims to strategically place EV chargers across the city, focusing on high-traffic areas and potential partnerships with local businesses. In partnership with Accenture, Energeia developed a Washington-specific transport electrification toolchain to estimate charging needs for the city including optimized, least-cost charging infrastructure recommendations.
The EVIP outlines a strategic framework to:
- Assess the current state of EV charging infrastructure in Kenmore
- Identify key locations for new charging stations to ensure equitable and convenient access
- Align with state and regional initiatives, including Washington’s goal for 100% clean-powered new vehicle sales by 2035
- Support the city’s Climate Action Plan and Comprehensive Plan by targeting a 95% reduction in heavy-duty vehicle emissions and achieving net-zero emissions by 2050
- Position Kenmore to secure funding and guide both near-term actions and long-term planning for EV infrastructure
