Commerce is accepting grant applications for the Clean Energy Fund (CEF) Electrification of Transportation Systems (ETS) Round 2 Grants program. This grant fund is for the continued transformation of the electric transportation market in Washington State. The Clean Energy Fund 5 Electrification of Transportation Systems Program (ETS) provides grants to Washington local governments and Tribal Governments for electric vehicle charging infrastructure. CEF 5 ETS Round 2 grants provide funding for local governments and federally recognized Tribal governments for the procurement, installation, and integration of electric vehicle supply infrastructure and/or hydrogen refueling station infrastructure in rural communities. Funding covers innovative projects that: Fills EVSE/hydrogen deployment gaps in rural communities with new infrastructure Upgrades existing infrastructure to better serve end-users and uses in rural communities and facilitate long distance travel, or Constructs additional EVSE or hydrogen fueling stations where needed in Rural Communities to increase system resiliency and better support end-users and uses. To meet Washington's climate emission reduction goals for the transportation sector, the 2021 State Energy Strategy recommends rapid electrification of all transportation markets and deep reductions in vehicle miles traveled.
