The Benefits of Installing EV Charging Stations at your Commercial Property

The need for EV charging stations is only growing—don’t be left behind! Here are just some of the benefits of installing EV chargers on your commercial building.

Did you know that B.C. is at the head of the pack when it comes to electric vehicle sales? Not too long ago, in the third quarter of 2022, S&P Global Mobility reported that B.C. was the province with the highest rate of electric vehicle adoption, with 14.3% of all new vehicle registrations being battery-electric vehicles. 

With all of those new EVs on the road, they will need a place to charge. Here are just some of the benefits of installing EV charging stations on your commercial property:

Be the solution to a problem

As interest in EVs grows, a new issue arises: where to charge the vehicle. In order to keep up with the demand, infrastructure needs to keep pace. Particularly if you are managing a residential property, residents will be looking for charging options, and being unable to plug in at the parking garage makes a huge difference to prospective tenants. Alternatively, public charging stations can fill up quickly, and people want options. An EV charger install sets your building apart, positioning it as part of the solution.  

Attract EV drivers to your property

Whether a shopping centre, administration building, school, or large residential property, installing EV charging stations will attract the people driving EVs. Maybe that means choosing your property or business over another, or is a boon to an employee on the job hunt. Being able to offer EV charging is a serious convenience for some!

Signals green values and forward-thinking

By supporting electric vehicles through resources like charging stations, you’re telling the world that you support green initiatives. More than that, it signals a willingness to adapt to new technologies and embrace innovation.
