Why You Should Install Commercial EV Charging Stations
Many businesses across the UK are installing commercial electric vehicle (EV) charging stations on their premises. The number of EV charging points increased by 45% in 2023. Many of those were businesses looking to create new income streams and attract eco-conscious customers. Here are some of the benefits of installing a commercial EV charging station.
Provides a new passive income stream
Installing EV charging stations costs money and can increase an electricity bill significantly. However, you can offset this cost by charging a fee for using the chargers. Over time, installing charging points creates an entirely new passive income stream directly from your electricity supply. Furthermore, customers with EVs may find a business attractive because of the presence of the chargers.
Helps to hit ESG goals
Environmental, social and governance (ESG) goals are of increasing concern to businesses in 2024. More businesses are recognising the need to contribute positively to the world around them, while also delivering value for their customers. Electric vehicles are much better for the planet, emitting no greenhouse gases as they move around. Providing commercial EV charging can help businesses hit their goals, offsetting other carbon emissions and helping them reach net zero.
How much does a commercial EV charging station cost?
The cost of a commercial EV charging station can depend on the project’s size and the number of chargers required. The cost can vary greatly depending on these factors. More chargers and a larger project will typically result in a higher cost.
