What Chargers Are Right for Your Business?
Choosing the right EV chargers for your property is one of the most important decisions you’ll make—and it directly affects revenue, customer experience, and long-term site performance. While different charger types serve different needs, our team specializes in analyzing your traffic patterns, customer dwell times, electrical capacity, and business goals to determine the exact mix that will deliver the strongest return. We guide you through the entire process—from selecting the right charger to coordinating utilities and completing installation—so you never have to navigate it alone. Below is a clear breakdown of the primary charger levels and when each is the best fit for commercial use.
Level 1
Level 1 chargers plug into a standard outlet and deliver very slow charging speeds. While sometimes suitable for overnight residential use, they’re not appropriate for commercial environments. They provide minimal value to visitors, create almost no revenue opportunity, and are typically ignored by EV drivers looking for meaningful charge gains.
Level 2
Best For: Office buildings, gyms, restaurants, multi-tenant properties, and anywhere customers stay 1.5 to 4 hours.
Level 2 chargers are the backbone of commercial EV charging where customer dwell times are high. They offer reliable charging that fits customer dwell times without requiring heavy infrastructure upgrades. Level 2 chargers increase customer dwell time, support recurring revenue models, and qualify for generous utility incentives. They’re also ideal for properties with limited electrical capacity or without room for a transformer upgrade.
Typical charge rate: ~25–40 miles of range per hour
Ideal installation quantity: 2–10 ports for most commercial properties
Level 3 (DCFC)
Best For: High-traffic destinations, travel corridors, gas stations, busy intersections, and any property aiming to attract drivers who need quick, high-value charging.
DC Fast Chargers deliver the fastest charging on the market—often adding 80% battery in under half an hour. They create the highest revenue potential, draw new customers to your site, and position your property as a true hub for EV drivers. They typically require transformer upgrades, specialized engineering, and utility coordination—but we handle all of that for you.
Typical charge rate: 3–20 miles per minute
Ideal installation quantity: 1–8 chargers depending on traffic volume

High quality customers
EV Drivers Are the Customers You Want in Your Parking Lot
- EV owners represent some of the most desirable customers a commercial property can attract—and installing chargers is one of the easiest ways to bring them directly to your doors. Studies consistently show that EV drivers are significantly more likely to choose businesses that offer charging, often bypassing similar locations without it. Once they plug in, they stay longer, spend more, and become repeat visitors.
- Charging naturally increases dwell time, giving customers 30 minutes to several hours on site—perfect for retail, restaurants, entertainment, and service-based businesses. More dwell time directly translates into higher spending across tenants.
- Even better, EV ownership strongly correlates with higher income. The average EV owner falls within the top 85% of U.S. earners, making them a high-value demographic with strong purchasing power. These customers not only visit more often, but they spend more per visit, creating measurable value for your tenants and the entire property.
- By installing EV chargers, you’re not just offering a convenience—you’re attracting premium customers who boost revenue across your commercial center.
