Through PSE’s Up & Go Electric for multi-family initiative, qualifying multifamily properties can cover half of the expenses for equipment and installation, with a maximum of $2,000 per Level 2 charging port. Site hosts oversee all charging equipment’s procurement, installation, and upkeep. Properties equipped with charging facilities enhance resident contentment, draw in new tenants, and contribute to carbon emission reduction within their community, aligning with their property’s sustainability objectives.

As the popularity of electric vehicles (EVs) rises in Seattle, upgrade your multi-family property to accommodate EV drivers. Participation benefits include supporting current and future EV owners, improving community charging accessibility, attracting new residents, enhancing electric infrastructure safety, promoting clean transportation, and reducing local emissions. For shared or unallocated parking at condominiums or market-rate properties, the program covers Level 2 charger installation, funding up to 50% of total project costs, with a cap of $25,000. Eligibility requires a minimum of two charging ports and exclusive use for shared parking spaces.
