Electric vehicles (EVs) are becoming increasingly popular, and as a result, the need for EV charging stations is increasing. For retail asset managers and owners, providing charging stations can be a great way to attract customers and increase revenue. In particular, level 3 charging stations offer several benefits to property managers, including the opportunity for contractors and vendors to own and operate stations, and install equipment at no cost.
Resound Energy Services™ offers a variety of EV chargers, but level 3 charging stations, also known as DC fast chargers, are the fastest type of charging station available. They can charge an EV up to 80% in just 20-30 minutes. This makes them ideal for retail locations, where customers are more likely to make quick stops and need a fast charge.
Benefits of level 3 charging stations for retail asset managers and owners
Attracting customers
Providing level 3 charging stations can be a major selling point for customers who own electric vehicles. By providing this service, retailers can attract new customers who may not have visited otherwise, or encourage repeat customers.
Increased revenue
EV drivers are a growing market, and providing charging stations can increase revenue for retailers. Customers who are waiting for their vehicle to charge may be more likely to shop or eat at the retail location.
Low cost
Unlike level 2 charging stations, which require significant installation and infrastructure costs, level 3 charging stations can be owned and operated by contractors and vendors. This means that retail asset managers and owners can provide charging stations at no cost to themselves. Additionally, there are many different rebates and incentives offered to make providing charging stations more accessible for businesses.
Advertising opportunities
Providing level 3 charging stations can be a valuable marketing tool for retailers. They can advertise their charging stations to potential customers, as well as to the wider community, as a sign of their commitment to sustainability. This will not only appeal to electric vehicle owners, but may influence environmentally-conscious consumers to shop there instead of other retailers.
Partnership opportunities
Retail asset managers and owners can partner with contractors and vendors to provide charging stations. This can lead to mutually beneficial partnerships and provide additional revenue streams for both parties.
