Who can install commercial EV charging stations?

installing commercial EV charging stations attracts many businesses who want to increase their property value, employee satisfaction, and customer count.

Workplaces

Since people park at work more often than anywhere else except home, offering a charging station helps attract EV drivers as employees. In fact, according to the U.S. Department of Energy’s recent survey, 80% of employers with an EV charging station say that it has helped them attract and retain more talent. So commercial EV stations improve both companies’ sustainability and their business targets. Business Districts And Shopping Centers When Americans aren’t at home or at work, they’re often out shopping and eating. This includes EV owners, who naturally want to park where their cars can charge while they’re enjoying themselves. Public parking lots, business districts, shopping centers, restaurants, and malls can install commercial EV charging stations to attract such shoppers. Customers may even linger longer (and buy more) as they wait for their EV to charge up! Service Locations Public buildings, hospitals, and universities are often working towards sustainability goals and can receive LEED credits for installing an EV charging station. These prospects often have a large employee workforce and, as said above, can attract more talent with this environmentally friendly option. Multifamily Housing Not all electric car owners live in their own house – or want to. But a place without an EV station doesn't meet their charging needs, driving them away from otherwise perfect living options. Apartment buildings, condominiums, and other multifamily buildings can fix this drawback by installing EV charging stations. This not only increases their property value, but also draws in prospective residents with electric vehicles. In many areas, new state and city regulations are accelerating charging station adoption. For example, the cities of Miami, Seattle, and Chicago now mandate commercial properties above a certain size to offer EV charging. Installers operating in such areas can expect their lead lists to increase even more rapidly.
