When evaluating whether your location is suitable for EV Fast Charging, there are several important factors to consider. First, assess the available space and infrastructure, such as the presence of 3-phase power lines. While these aspects may seem technical, rest assured, we will handle all the necessary assessments.The key consideration for you is the typical duration of parking at your facility. If visitors are generally parked for 20-40 minutes, then your site is well-positioned for the installation of DC (Direct Current) Fast Charging stations. This timeframe aligns perfectly with the average time required to charge an electric vehicle from 20% to 80%.

 

Charging times can range from as little as 15 minutes to as long as an hour, depending on various factors.Even if your facility typically accommodates longer visits, DC Fast Charging can still be a valuable addition. However, for maximizing revenue potential, shorter parking durations may be ideal.According to data from the U.S. Department of Energy, the most common locations for DC Fast Charging (DCFC) stations include shopping centers, gas stations, parking lots, grocery stores, and shopping malls. These are closely followed by restaurants, convenience stores, and hotels.

 

If you're considering a proven investment in EV infrastructure, these types of locations are highly favorable options to explore.It’s also important to note that these locations together only make up about 19,000 charging stations across the entire U.S. So no matter what location you’re in, installing DC Fast Charging will make you an EV pioneer! Make no mistake, there is no one more thrilled to accompany you on that journey than Charging Networks.
