Electric Vehicle (EV) Parking Information
Who Can Use the EV Charging Stations on Campus?
Only Western Washington University students and employees who have an active on-campus Western parking permit (hourly, daily, quarterly, academic, and annual permits) are allowed to use one of the Electric Vehicle (EV) Charging Stations on campus.
Western’s EV Charging Stations are a service provided by the university for the sole use of students and employees who need a short, temporarily charge of their vehicle while they are on campus. Resident students can use EV Charging Stations to charge their vehicle in the evenings or overnight.
When parking in a space with an EV Charging Station, your permit will automatically be valid while your vehicle is actively charging for up to four hours. When your vehicle has finished charging or after four hours, you will need to return to your normally permitted parking lot.
Quarterly/Academic/Annual Parking Permit Holder
Parkers with quarterly, academic, or annual on-campus permits can park in the EV Charging Stations, while charging, without an additional permit or action.
When parking in a space with an EV Charging Station, your permit will automatically be valid while your vehicle is actively charging for up to four hours. When your vehicle has finished charging or after four hours, you will need to return to your normally permitted parking lot.
