The electric vehicle (EV) market is growing, leading to an increasing demand for reliable charging infrastructure. According to a report by PwC there could be an estimated 27 million EVs on the road by 2030, and that number could reach 92 million by 2040.
In order to prepare for the rise in demand for the vehicles, the proper infrastructure needs to be created. According to Pew Research Center there are 61,000 public charging stations currently in the country. In order to keep pace with the expected number of EVs on the road in the next 15 and 25 years, there will also need to be an increase in EV charger infrastructure.
The increased adoption of EVs isn’t the only factor driving the need for EV charging stations. Other factors include:

EV charging solutions are becoming increasingly important, offering numerous benefits to both property owners and drivers. EV infrastructure can be implemented in various environments, ranging from office buildings and campuses to retail developments of any size. Comcast, as a broader organization, has been impressed with the value that our comprehensive EV charging technology can provide and has tapped Comcast Smart Solutions to outfit our own facilities with EV charging solutions. Here is a look at a successful deployment at two locations in Comcast’s Pacific Northwest Region.
Comcast had two facilities in the Pacific Northwest Region – in Everett and Puyallup, WA, that were looking to explore a smart charging solution for the first time. There was an increase in demand from employees, and the offices reached out to Comcast Smart Solutions to learn about what options were available that could benefit Comcast employees.
Recognizing the need for a robust solution, we deployed Level 2 EV chargers, specifically tailored for workplace environments. These chargers came equipped with advanced features such as RFID capabilities, WiFi pedestal mounts, dual cord management retractors, and custom branding.
These chargers offer a reliable and user-friendly experience for employees. Integrated software solutions, including an AI system that streamlines charger maintenance and operational efficiency, helps the system remain operational with minimal downtime or intervention.
Comcast’s successful Pacific Northwest installation demonstrates that Comcast Smart Solutions can be an expert in consulting with a customer, surveying the site, selecting the right hardware and software, and then acting as the single-vendor solution to provide the technology and connectivity to power EV chargers.
This smart technology implementation is proof that Comcast has confidence in its own products and process to create a case study that showcases the benefits of an EV infrastructure for a property and its employees.
Our EV charging solutions are designed to help meet the specific needs of distinct industries, helping them keep up with the evolving landscape of electric vehicle adoption.
Our smart EV charging solutions help Campuses promote sustainability, offering students and staff a sought-after amenity that supports sustainability goals.

Multifamily Properties can use this popular amenity to help attract residents. These installations provide convenience while offering a scalable infrastructure that can grow with demand.
Staying ahead of the competition is critical for businesses to thrive in today’s highly competitive markets. Installing EV charging stations can offer multiple benefits which can help a business stand out and better serve its customers.
