Frequently Asked Questions
This depends on your current EV-driving employees or visitors, expected growth, and vehicle dwell times. For workplace charging, we typically recommend starting with chargers for 10-20% of parking spaces, with infrastructure that can scale. We conduct surveys to assess your specific needs and future-proof your installation.
Many businesses can accommodate initial chargers on their existing electrical supply, especially with smart load management. Larger installations may require supply upgrades or new substations. We assess your existing infrastructure during the site survey and recommend the most cost-effective approach, which may include load management to defer or avoid costly upgrades.
Yes, solar-powered EV charging is highly effective. Your solar panels generate electricity during the day when vehicles are typically parked at workplaces, providing essentially free fuel for employee and fleet vehicles. We can design integrated solar + EV systems or add chargers to existing solar installations.
Modern commercial chargers support individual user authentication via RFID cards or smartphone apps. This enables per-user billing, whether recovering costs from employees, charging visitors, or tracking fleet vehicle usage. Various billing models are available including per-kWh, per-session, or subscription-based access.
Commercial EV chargers require minimal maintenance. We recommend annual inspections to check connections, cables, and functionality. Remote monitoring detects most issues automatically. Our maintenance packages include regular inspections, software updates, and rapid response for any faults.
