So you’ve decided that the installation of an EV charging station is right for your commercial property — what’s next? From identifying the scope of your project to plugging in the first EV, Dynamic EVC will guide you every step of the way.
- Select the kind of chargers you need.
In a nutshell, Level 1 chargers are for single family home use. Level 2 chargers are the most common for commercial properties, providing faster charging capabilities at an affordable price. Level 3 or DC-based fast chargers generally work best for fleet vehicles and for locations where drivers do not need or want to stay for more than ____. These powerful chargers can charge a battery from nearly empty to full in under an hour. Click here for more details about types of chargers.

- Determine how many chargers you need now, and for the future.
The number of chargers you install is determined by both your needs and your budget. You also want to have room to grow, since EV adoption continues to grow at an impressive rate. It’s a great idea and much more economical to build in future capacity to your installation now, rather than having to add infrastructure for more chargers down the road.
- Assess space, location and power needs.
With your current and future needs identified, it’s time to develop specific plans. Dynamic EVC project managers help you determine if you have the electrical infrastructure, parking space, lighting and security needed to meet your charging needs. Together we’ll develop a site plan that maps out the locations of your chargers to ensure accessibility compliance and convenience.
- Consider all the costs.
The site plan allows for us help with the permitting process, develop the costs of materials and estimate installation expenses. Together, we’ll figure out what upgrades may be required to your infrastructure, and work with utility providers to ensure you won’t experience a spike in your electric bills if you or your customers charge at peak usage times.
- Explore all the available funding sources.
Dynamic EVC keeps current on the ever-changing financial opportunities for funding EV charging, from federal, state and local government as well as and applications for tax credits, rebates and incentives to help you further reduce costs.
