EV adoption continues to grow across the country with more electric vehicle models available and with more charging stations installations. Estimations consider a growth of nearly 25% annually in electric car sales according to research. Nevertheless, one of the major setbacks in the widespread adoption of EVs (besides price) is the availability of multiple charging stations.
EV owners need to charge their vehicles fast and need to have multiple stations nearby to avoid worrying about their battery charge status daily. One of the players who will play a very important role in this matter will be the workplace charging points.
Workplace charging stations have often been considered in second priority just after home EV charging. Indeed, the place where EV owners spend more time after home is at work. Data shows that most EV owners are below their 40s and earn more than $75,000 annually. This trend is expected to continue for the next decade and likely reducing the average earning amount required to purchase an EV. In other words, if you have or aim to have young employees who get paid these amounts annually, then it means they will likely have an EV and will likely enjoy having a workplace EV charging station.
The most benefited from having workplace EV chargers are naturally the employees since they can conveniently charge their vehicle while working. However, employers can also benefit from a workplace EV charger installation as can be seen in the following section.
