The Benefits of Equipping Your Business with EV Chargers

Customer Spending

Studies have shown that EV drivers tend to spend more time at businesses with charging stations. The longer charging durations mean customers are likely to browse and make additional purchases, boosting sales.

Added Revenue Stream

Businesses can monetize their EV charging stations by charging customers for usage, whether by kilowatt-hour, by connection time, or through subscription models.

Extra Employee Benefits

Offering onsite EV charging can be a significant perk for employees, especially those who drive electric vehicles. This benefit can improve job satisfaction and loyalty, as it demonstrates the company’s commitment to sustainable practices and employee needs.

Tax Incentives

Many local, state, and federal programs provide financial incentives for businesses that install EV charging infrastructure. These tax credits and rebates can significantly offset installation costs, making it a financially attractive decision.

Future-Proofing

As the demand for electric vehicles continues to rise, installing charging stations positions your business to meet future regulatory requirements and market shifts, ensuring you stay relevant and competitive.

Outpace the Competition

As electric vehicle adoption increases, businesses that adopt EV charging infrastructure early can gain a competitive advantage. Being an early adopter positions your company as an industry leader in sustainability and innovation.

Learn What Our Loyal Customers Love About Our Work

“We hired Lighthouse Electrical to install a generator interlock kit for our house and am very impressed at how smooth everything went. They were the cheapest out of 5 quotes, but didn’t cut any corners. Corey came out on site for a quote which added comfort that he won’t try to extra bill us once the work was to be done, and we got the install scheduled within a week from calling. Christian came out to do the install and once everything was complete he vacuumed up and walked me through how to use the switch. As a cherry on top, they didn’t add a surcharge for paying by credit. I couldn’t be happier with the experience.”

Tom

“At the time of this review- I am stunned they only have 5 reviews! I usually only call companies that have 10 or more reviews since I need reliable and professional service for my tree service business. These people are very prompt to respond and very accommodating. Unlike some other electrical services I called for my situation. Their pricing is better than other people I talked to. Believe me I called many electrical companies and a lot of people would not tackle the task I requested. I cannot say enough good things about these people. Please reach out to them if you need reliable electrical service with excellent prices to match. Good job guys! Keep it up.”

“I’ve hired Lighthouse Electrical for a number of projects and have found their timeliness in quoting, scheduling and completing the work impressive. Corey has found creative and cost efficient ways to complete every project no matter how crazy my ask. The electricians are professional, personable and know the industry and trade responsibilities (and the tucks are always fully stocked to handle every surprise my 70 year old house throws at them). Corey, Collen and the the complete Lighthouse Electrical Team have been great to work with and I plan on contracting them again in the future. Lighthouse Electrical is now my only electrician!!”

Your EV Charging Station FAQs, Answered

What is the difference between commercial and residential EV chargers?

Commercial chargers generally provide faster charging speeds and enhanced durability for frequent public use, often incorporating features like payment systems and network connectivity for added convenience.

Will I need a permit for an EV charger installation?

Yes, EV charging station installation necessitates a permit but our experienced electrical team will help you navigate the requirements with ease.

Should I charge my EV to 100% at home?

To maintain optimal battery health and efficiency, it’s best to keep your EV’s charge level between 20% and 80%, as charging outside this range can result in longer charging times and potential long-term damage. However, if you’re planning an occasional long trip, it’s acceptable to charge your electric car to 100% when necessary.
