    • EV purchase – A nonprofit organization expanded its delivery services by adding electric vehicles to its fleet, helping connect underserved households with essential resources. The project improved operational efficiency while supporting cleaner transportation. 
    • Micromobility – An affordable housing organization distributed e-bikes to residents to increase access to reliable, low-cost transportation. The project connected housing and mobility solutions to support long-term community benefits. 
    • Outreach & education – A conservation-focused nonprofit adopted electric transportation and public charging infrastructure to support fieldwork, education and community engagement. The project advanced sustainability goals while improving access to important community resources. 
    • Needs assessment – A regional organization conducted an electric vehicle infrastructure assessment to help guide future charging investments. The project created a roadmap for expanding EV access and meeting growing transportation needs. 

    Oregon grant matching support

    Grant matching support is designed to offset project costs related to transportation electrification. These awards provide matching funds, cost shares, or support for other project costs incurred while implementing a transportation electrification project funded by another grant. Applicants for grant matching support should review the eligibility requirements, definitions, and terms and conditions before applying. The applicant will need to share plans about the project, describe how the project will benefit Pacific Power customers and demonstrate a need for grant matching support.
