Washington’s EV Mapping and Planning (EV-MAP) Tool

2025-05-01T11:00:33-04:00

The purpose of this site is to provide spatial data and related information to support planning activities for new electric vehicle supply equipment or electric vehicle charger infrastructure for Washington state. The interactive map is an exploratory tool to view roughly 100 data sets. All data, with few exceptions were publicly sourced, and are available for download via the map layers or from the Data menu. This site contains forecasted or modeled data sets but does not offer tools to perform modeling or forecasts.

Evaluating EV Charger Reliability and Performance

2023-12-07T12:38:32-05:00

In an effort to identify processes for measuring, verifying, and evaluating charger reliability and performance, the National Association of State Energy Officials (NASEO) and the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) convened an online Evaluating EV Charger Reliability and Performance Charrette on June 13, 2023. The charette was facilitated by Atlas Public Policy staff, and invited participants included a balanced representation of stakeholders from the EV charging industry, state and federal government agencies, including State Energy Offices and State Departments of Transportation, utilities, and consulting firms.

Implementation Guide for Minimum Required Error Codes in Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure

2023-12-14T14:09:28-05:00

The objective of this report is to provide a guide that accelerates the MREC adoption proposed by the ChargeX consortium, ensuring consistent error reporting, interpretation, and diagnostics across the North American EV charging landscape. This guide builds upon the MRECs report to improve EV charging reliability by streamlining error reporting and transmission processes via OCPP.
