Charging Forward in the Skagit Valley
Last week, we joined the Swinomish Indian Tribal Community, state and local partners, and community members in Anacortes to celebrate the opening of a new public electric vehicle (EV) charging site at Swinomish Casino & Lodge. The site adds 14 DC fast-charging ports and 14 Level 2 ports, expanding access to EV charging for residents and visitors in and around Anacortes.
Funded in part by the Climate Commitment Act (CCA), the project is part of a broader effort to build out EV charging across the state, ensuring more Washingtonians can choose a transportation option that is not only cleaner, but more cost-stable. The project received support from the Washington Electric Vehicle Charging Program, the Zero Emission Vehicle Infrastructure Partnerships grant, and Puget Sound Energy’s Up & Go Electric program.
Transportation is a significant source of emissions in the Skagit Valley. In 2022, it made up 15 percent of communitywide emissions, and on-road vehicles accounted for 75 percent of those transportation emissions. Public charging sites make it easier for residents and visitors to switch to electric.
Huge thanks to our partners the Swinomish Indian Tribal Community, Washington State Department of Commerce, Washington State Department of Transportation, Puget Sound Energy, Energy Northwest, EVCS, and VECA for making this site – and the celebration – possible.
