New York City has deployed 360 kW fast chargers at sites identified as high-need areas for electric vehicle drivers. The rollout, reported by Electrek, targets locations where charging infrastructure has been lacking. The deployment forms part of the city's broader effort to expand public charging access.
Why it matters
High-power 360 kW chargers in urban demand hotspots signal procurement priorities shifting toward ultra-fast infrastructure that can serve commercial fleets and high-utilisation sites. CPOs evaluating New York opportunities should note the city's focus on power capacity and strategic site selection in underserved areas.

Seattle opens applications for 200 curbside Level 2 chargers targeting apartment areas by 2030
Seattle City Light is accepting resident applications for up to 200 new curbside Level 2 EV chargers to be installed from fall 2027 through 2030, prioritising multifamily housing areas with limited existing charging. The city will review applications and select locations in batches of 40 to 50 sites, with design and permitting starting spring 2027 and each site requiring approximately two weeks of construction.

The batch selection approach creates predictable tender windows for equipment suppliers and installation firms through to 2030.
