Philadelphia City Council is considering an ordinance authorizing the Office of Transportation and Infrastructure Systems and the Procurement Commissioner to execute separate multi‑year concession agreements with It’s Electric Inc. and Positive Energy Inc. to design, install, own, operate, and maintain a network of publicly available EV charging stations at curbside locations and surface parking lots.The ordinance also updates the Code to cover encroachments, parking rules, and camera‑based enforcement for EV spaces, signaling a major buildout of EV charging infrastructure across the city. Because the ordinance only authorizes the City to enter these multi‑year concession agreements and lays out program structure, there is still room for detailed scoping, implementation planning, and downstream subcontracting once agreements are executed. This is a substantial capital and technology program that will need hardware, civil and electrical construction, network and payment systems, enforcement technology, and ongoing maintenance.Vendors in EV infrastructure, civil construction, software, and enforcement tech can position for subcontracts, integration work, or expansion phases once the program design and initial rollout areas are finalized.

Ordinance includes provisions for camera-based enforcement and towing for EV parking, implying need for enforcement systems integration.
