<p>Explore federal, state, and local regulations, laws, ordinances, permits, orders, and other legislative updates from the EV charging industry.&nbsp;</p>

Federal & State Policy 

The first EV charging infrastructure funds approved

<p>Mass media and social media continue to repost Joe Biden's words at the North American International Auto Show: "The great American road trip is going to be fully electrified."</p>
<p>We already know about the administration's ambitious plan to build 500,000 electric charging stations across the country, but are we ready and prepared to build an infrastructure of this scale? The project looks achievable, especially after setting specific milestones divided into realistic deadlines. We have the money, resources, and potential to commit to the Net Zero Protocol fully. But if we dive deeper, the picture doesn't look that optimistic.</p>

<p>One of the targets set by the White House is to have 50% of all new cars electric by 2030. On the one hand, according to the latest statistics, we hit 5% of EVs on the road mark, and people are finally ready to embrace this new era. On the other hand, most refuse to buy an electric car because of range anxiety and the lack of a steady and reliable charging infrastructure.</p>
<p>Our administration tries to persuade people to buy electric vehicles with incentives and tax credits, some of them mounting up to $4,000-$7,500. The only thing left to accelerate EV adoption is building more commercial car charging stations, so EV drivers don't have to deal with range and charge anxiety.</p>

The roadblocks to developing electric commercial charging stations

<p>Currently, America has approximately 50,000 public electric chargers, but we need 500,000 of them. We don't just need the numbers - we need the power. Most EV charging stations must be Level 2 and DCFC chargers to deliver fast speed and high-density power output.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The good news is that the first round of $1.5 billion was unlocked recently for all states for deploying new chargers along the highways. Now, the state and municipalities have to determine how to divide this money and start building the EV infrastructure our country needs.</p>

How do we start adding commercial electric charging stations?

<p>We've compiled a list of daily challenges states, and private entities face to achieve these goals. The first issue is who will be responsible for building the chargers. The governments don't have the workforce and resources to install multiple charging stations alone, so private entities have to play their part in installing commercial charging stations.</p>
<p>For this reason, businesses can benefit from local rebate and incentive programs that can cover up to 90% and sometimes 100% of the purchase and installation costs. But the municipalities have an essential role in facilitating this process. Some cities, such as Columbus, Honolulu, and Atlanta, passed the "EV readiness" ordinance, which mandates all new parking spaces to provide EV charging ports proportionate to the total number of parking spots.</p>

Who is responsible for building the EV charging project?

<p>We have already established that cities and states don't have the necessary number of available public chargers. It means most people charge their electric cars at home, but renters also require easy charging access. We need car chargers in multifamily dwellings, high-density populated locations, rural communities, and over large territories all other the country. We definitely need a lot of EV chargers, and our country works hard to accelerate their construction.</p>

A diversity of spaces need EV charging installations 

<p>Remember our earlier statement about these goals being achievable for our country? They are true. We have much to figure out and work on, but our scientists and EV charging manufacturers continue to improve charging technologies. We can be proud of creating street-side charging networks (that charge from streetlamps), developing new ideas for charging electric cars on the roads using magnetizable concrete technology, and improving bidirectional charging systems (that can deliver the energy back from electric cars to the grid). Our community contributes with hard work, technology, and innovative ideas to build the EV infrastructure and achieve great goals by 2030-2035.&nbsp;</p>
<p>"The more the community has input on where these chargers go, how they're used, and how they're designed," said Melendez Martineau, the Policy Manager at Plug-in America, "the better they're going to serve the community."</p>
<p>Do we have a long road ahead? Sure we do. Do private and public entities need to collaborate and work on overcoming these issues? Of course, they do. Are we ready to achieve all the project's milestones? We are convinced that we are, and we can. Let's speed up EV adoption and help our country achieve the Net Zero Protocol goals.</p>

 Tesla will become a successful EV charging company

<p>Today, the world's economic situation stops people from investing and makes them reevaluate their finances. Everyone, from big corporations to small businesses, meticulously plans their next moves and doesn't rush into uncalculated investments. Stocks are crashing, and Tesla seems to register a 50% stock drop compared to the beginning of 2022. But one of its main investors, Ron Baron, doesn't worry and is very optimistic about the company's bright future.</p>

<p>According to this year's survey organized by Kelley Blue Book, people's interest in Tesla is fading, but there are valid explanations for this phenomenon. If we compare the number of Teslas sold in the past 5 years annually, side by side, we would see that the numbers are steadily growing. Tesla's Superchargers Network of electric car chargers is expanding across the country and winning over other network operators, which means - Tesla still should be a popular choice among Americans.</p>
<p>On the contrary, Tesla is still a popular choice, but the financial instability that hit our country this year has created uncertainty in people's lives. Until recently, Model 3, Model S, and Model Y were among the most popular luxury car brands. However, the numbers in the third quarter of 2022 are dropping significantly, leaving only Tesla Model 3 on the competitors' ranking. Still, Americans would consider buying a Tesla Model 3, and one of the issues stopping them is the lack of a steady commercial car charging station infrastructure. Of course, money is another reason they don't rush into buying a Tesla.</p>
<p>Experts say Americans are waiting for new electric car incentive programs to be available in 2023. The government will offer $7,500 for every new EV car sold, a great opportunity to save money in 2023. Even more, people are entering the Christmas season and expect to spend a lot on gifts, leaving only a tiny portion of Americans who can afford to buy a new car at the end of the year.</p>

People don't buy Teslas anymore

<p>At the annual meeting of Rob Baron's Baron Capital with 5,000 investors and Elon Musk, its founder Rob Baron discussed the current situation of Tesla and made bold predictions about its future. Although Tesla sells a considerable number of cars annually and builds a widespread network of electric charger infrastructures, it experienced a stock drop of about 50% in 2022! Tesla's funds consist of almost 45% of all of the Baron Capital stock, but it doesn't bother its founder at all.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Baron sees this stock drop as an opportunity for everyone to buy a share of Tesla and invest now while the price is low. He further declared that Tesla would be the world's largest and most profitable company in ten years. We can expect this kind of development since Tesla plans to expand its domestic manufacturing process, build an entire system of renewable energy sources for its productions, and deliver a new North American EV Charging standard on the market. These are just a few plans, but we will surely see thousands of commercial car charging stations operating under the Tesla name.</p>

Tesla is expected to be the largest and most profitable American company in the EV and EV charging industry

<p>Elon Musk has been working on EV technology improvements for the past 20 years. Do you still question his company's future in the USA? Of course, the economy and the stock market are unstable and would never be predictable. We have seen many companies achieving major success and crushing the next day. But Tesla is not any other company, and its current status, mindset, and plans paint a clear picture - whatever the challenge, this company can survive and deliver outstanding results. Tesla is one of the top EV charging companies on the market, and its products will never cease to amaze us.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Whatever course this company decides to take in the next ten years, we hope Tesla will do its part in helping our country develop a strong and reliable EV charging infrastructure.</p>

Is all the fuss around Tesla a rumor or a fact?

Myths surrounding the Level 2 charging station 

<p>Who doesn't like having the latest iPhone, Nike sneakers, or EV? Electric cars are becoming the new "must-have" for Americans. The third quarter of 2022 has shown mind-blowing statistics. Electric car sales have soared to 60%, with more than 200,000 new registrations nationwide. Nevertheless, the EV culture has a long way to go to become affordable. The rumors surrounding EVs and the range anxiety about finding charging stations don't help the situation.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Everyone is eager to share their opinions on this subject. &ldquo;The Level 1 charger is slow. The Level 2 EV charging station is for businesses only. Level 3 fast chargers are expensive. There are not enough chargers on the roads. Getting a full charge takes 8-10 hours. Public charging stations harm our environment.&rdquo;&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Stop this nonsense! Let's sort through the most frequent misbeliefs and get to the truth. Our experts at Energy5 will debunk these myths for you.</p>

<p>If you were in 2012, getting a full charge would take a long time. Good for us that we live in 2022 and EV charging stations have better technologies. Experts have improved the levels of power output for the Level 2 charging station, the EV's battery performance, the number of fast chargers on the roads, and many other factors that influence the charging time. An average electric car needs 2-6 hours for a full charge with a Level 2 charger that delivers 22 kW. But let's be honest. Who goes to a public charger with 0% battery? The odds are you will only need to replenish the batteries with an extra 50%, which cuts your waiting time at a public charging station in half.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3>The average power output of a public charger</h3>
<p>Most people use Level 1 home chargers for their electric cars, which provide from 1.3 kW to 7.5 kW and 3-6 miles per hour. They can install a Level 2 charging station at home for a quicker charge - a good option unless you must travel or find yourself stuck with a 15%-25% battery. The most popular public chargers, Level 2 chargers, deliver between 22 kW to 43 kW and 30-90 miles per hour. If you want a speedy experience, a Level 3 charger will add up to 20 miles per minute. Cheers to all the engineers out there.&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3>The average time to charge an EV with a Level 2 charging station</h3>
<p>The EV charging time depends on 2 major factors: the car's battery capacity and the station's power output. Take a calculator and divide the car battery's capacity &ndash; kWh, by its charging speed &ndash; kW. The final result can vary if adding other conditions, such as the current battery status, the first and the last 20% taking longer to charge, etc., but you can get an estimation. A level 2 charging station that provides 22 kW will charge a <span style="color: #000000;">Kia Niro</span> in 2 hours 55 minutes, a <span style="color: #000000;">Hyundai Ioniq</span> in 1 hour 50 minutes, a <span style="color: #000000;">Tesla Model 3</span> in 2 hours 17 minutes, a <span style="color: #000000;">Toyota RAV4</span> in 50 minutes, and a <span style="color: #000000;">Ford Focus</span> in 1 hour 32 minutes.</p>

Myth #1. Charging with a Level 2 charging station takes too long

<p>People still think range anxiety is warranted and fear that America doesn't have a solid EV charging infrastructure. Ten years ago, EV drivers could only charge at home or browse through few available public chargers. But today, a Level 2 charging station is a profitable business. You can find chargers at restaurants, hotels, gas stations, shopping malls, supermarkets, fitness centers, etc. Level 2 chargers are a great choice. They are faster than Level 1 chargers and less expensive than Level 3 chargers.&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2><span style="color: #000000;">Installing chargers is profitable and offers undeniable advantages for business owners.</span></h2>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3>Most EV connectors are compatible with a Level 2 charging station</h3>
<p>EVs come with several types of connectors for the American (Type 1 connector) and European (Type 2 connector) markets, but most are compatible with Level 2 chargers. The type 1 connector, also known as J1772, works for home Level 1 chargers and public Level 2 EV charging stations. Tesla owners don't have to worry. The standard J1772 adaptor comes together with the car once you purchase it. Many consider Level 2 stations universal for this reason, and that's why they are so popular in public locations.&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3>Of 53,000 public chargers across the USA, 41,000 are Level 2 stations</h3>
<p>America has 140,000 charging ports, and most of them are distributed across 41,000 Level 2 charging stations. Finding them is straightforward. You can use apps, Roadtrippers lists, in-built car navigation, and other online maps. Next time someone there says America needs to have more charging stations on the roads, throw these facts at them.</p>

Myth #2. Level 2 chargers are not a popular choice for public charging station locations

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This topic is the most debatable in public. Purchasing and installing a Level 2 charging station costs between $1,200-$6,000 for a single charger. Yes, on the one hand, it sounds expensive, especially if you think about having 2-3 stations for your business. On the other hand, the US government has established multiple incentives, grants, and tax credits.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Electric car incentives can cover up to 90% of equipment and installation </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">costs</span></h3>
<p><a href="https://evcharging.energy5.com/ev-rebates"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Electric car incentives</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> differ from state to state. Some of them can cover up to 90% of costs, significantly reducing business expenses for installing Level 2 charging stations. Energy5 helps companies apply for incentives and offers turnkey </span><a href="https://energy5.com/about-us"><span style="font-weight: 400;">energy-efficient solutions</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> to </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">lessen the burden of figuring out all the details. Now straight to the fact: the cost of installing a Level 2 EV charging station can drop from $6,000 to $1,200.&nbsp;</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">You don't spend. You invest.&nbsp;</span></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">A Level 2 charger station has a good ROI. Every business owner can set a markup to the charging fees and create a new revenue stream. On average, a public charger can bring a $2,000 profit monthly. Returning to our previous arguments, it is a convenient business deal when you spend $1,200 and get in return $2,000. </span></p>

Myth #3. The Level 2 charging station installation cost is too hig

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Quick answer - no. Electric car manufacturers can't avoid greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, most of which are caused by lithium-ion battery production. But once the EV goes on the market, its carbon footprint is way lower than the ICE car's carbon footprint. Experts have studied many EV production and lifespan features to come to these conclusions.&nbsp;</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Many states use renewable energy for public EV charging stations</span></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The main misconception about the Level 2 charging station's environmental impact is that America uses coal and gas power plants for electricity. But let's remember that America invests billions in building renewable energy infrastructures across the country.&nbsp;</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2><span style="color: #000000;"><strong>Some states have already started powering up to 20% of their energy from renewable sources, and business owners have solar panels or wind turbines to provide clean energy for charging stations.</strong></span></h2>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">EV manufacturers like Tesla plan to transfer their production to 100% clean energy and use it for powering their superchargers.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">The environmental impact of gas stations and EV charging stations</span></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Even considering this issue, ICE cars have higher GHG emissions, and gas stations contribute to a higher carbon footprint. Gas or petrol stations gather toxic fumes from tailpipes, contribute to soil pollution, release fumes, leak, affect air quality, generate extraction pollution, etc. Installing and maintai</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">ning an </span><a href="https://evcharging.energy5.com/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">EV charging </span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">station d</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">oesn't have these effects on our environment.&nbsp;</span></p>

Myth #4. Charging at a Level 2 EV charging station is bad for the environment

MythBusters: Don't believe these rumors about a Level 2 EV charging station! 

23 Facts about installing an EV charging station

<p>Mass media resources in the USA buzz with news about building the EV charging infrastructure, distributing federal funding, and providing available incentives to speed up EV adoption. Now is the time for all businesses to grab the opportunity to be a part of the EV movement and install EV chargers on their premises. The only issue is that we have countless resources of online and offline information, and we need time to become experts in a particular field. So, where do you start?</p>

<h3><span style="color: #000000;">1. Electric car charging stations use AC (alternating current) or DC (direct current).</span></h3>
<p>The grid always delivers electricity in the form of AC power, but EV batteries use DC to charge, which means that the onboard system has to convert the energy for the batteries to accept it. Level 1 and Level 2 chargers convert the power from alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC) through the onboard charger and deliver them to the batteries. On the contrary, the Level 3 chargers convert the energy inside the station and provide DC power directly to EV batteries.&nbsp;</p>
<h3>&nbsp;</h3>
<h3><span style="color: #000000;">2. There are 3 types of EV charging stations.&nbsp;</span></h3>
<ul>
<li aria-level="1">Level 1 chargers, 120V (use Alternating Current), have the slowest power output of 1.4 kW-3 kW and charge depleted batteries in 10-16 hours.&nbsp;</li>
<li aria-level="1">Level 2 chargers, 240V (use Alternating Current), have a medium power output of 7 kW-22 kW and charge depleted batteries in 2-8 hours.</li>
<li aria-level="1">Level 3 chargers, 480V (use Direct Current), have the highest power output of 40 kW-350 kW and charge depleted batteries from 20 minutes to 1 hour.</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span style="color: #000000;">3. The USA has private and public EV charging stations.</span></h3>
<ul>
<li aria-level="1">Private EV charging stations are installed on private properties with restricted access to the general public. Their frequent locations: private residences (houses &amp; apartments), multifamily dwellings, offices, businesses, and other buildings that provide their chargers for employers and residents only.&nbsp;</li>
<li aria-level="1">Public EV charging stations are installed on properties that allow the general public to use their chargers and don't limit their access. Their frequent locations: businesses (gas stations, shopping malls, restaurants, hotels, gyms, etc.), buildings &amp; offices used by government, municipalities, and other public entities, residential areas, and others.</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span style="color: #000000;">4. There are 3 types of plugs for electric charging stations.</span></h3>
<ul>
<li aria-level="1">Type 1 (single-phase plug) is the standard J1772 used by most EV manufacturers in America and Asia. This plug is compatible with Level 1 and Level 2 electric chargers without requiring an additional adaptor.&nbsp;</li>
<li aria-level="1">Type 2 (trial-phase plug) is used on the European market and is only compatible with Level 1 and Level 2 electric chargers in Europe.</li>
<li aria-level="1">Type 3 (10-pin or 5-pin plug) is CHAdeMO, CCS, and Tesla plug compatible with Level 3 fast chargers.&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span style="color: #000000;">5. Every type of commercial EV charging station has a different power output.&nbsp;</span></h3>
<ul>
<li aria-level="1">Level 1 EV charging stations deliver an average of 1.4 kW-3 kW and 3-5 miles per hour.</li>
<li aria-level="1">Level 2 EV charging stations deliver an average of 3 kW-22 kW and 12-80 miles per hour.</li>
<li aria-level="1">Level 3 EV charging stations deliver an average of 30 kW-360 kW and 3-20 miles per minute.</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span style="color: #000000;">6. On average, an electric car consumes 36.5 kWh per 100 miles.</span></h3>
<p>According to statistics, Americans drive 35 miles daily, meaning one full charge is enough for the whole day. In these conditions, if the electric car has a battery capacity of 65 kWh, you will have to spend 2 hours and 57 minutes to fully charge it with a Level 2 charger (22 kW) and only 39 minutes for your quota of 35 miles per day. The conclusion is simple, owners of electric car charging stations don't have to worry about a slow flow of clients that have to spend 6 hours for one charge - 39 minutes is just enough.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span style="color: #000000;">7. Not all commercial electric charging stations are "EV chargers," but rather EVSE (electric vehicle supply equipment).</span></h3>
<p>While media resources classify both in the same category, EVSE includes not only the charging station but a sum of hardware, software, and all their components (network communication, apps, electrical conductors, protocols, etc.). Even more, some experts say that only Level 3 stations are EV chargers because they use DC power, which doesn't have to be converted to charge the batteries (like Level 1 and Level 2 stations).</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span style="color: #000000;">8. Only electricians can install commercial car charging stations.</span></h3>
<p>Unlike Level 1 home chargers that anyone can install at home, Level 2 and Level 3 chargers are more complex. Certified electricians are the only ones who should handle the EV charging installation process. Many companies have products warranty that is invalid if someone installs the hardware without specialists' help. Hiring an electrician guarantees that chargers work perfectly and don't have manufacturer issues that you can overlook.&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span style="color: #000000;">9. Every type of station has a different charging time for a full charge.</span></h3>
<p>As the power output differs for all three EV charging stations, the time of getting a full battery charge also differs. Many factors influence the charging time, such as the electric charger power output, the EV's battery capacity, the current battery percentage, and the maximum EV charging rate. Charging with a Level 2 station (22 kW) can take 2 hours for a Tesla Model 3 and 50 minutes for Toyota RAV4.&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span style="color: #000000;">10. Your business needs only electricity and parking space to consider installing EV chargers.&nbsp;</span></h3>
<h3>&nbsp;</h3>
<h3><span style="color: #000000;">11. The owners of the commercial charging station can set their own pricing method.</span></h3>
<p>Usually, owners choose between setting a rate per minute, rate per hour, rate per session, rate per kWh, or a combination of them.&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span style="color: #000000;">12. Businesses that have commercial electric car charging stations set their own markup.</span></h3>
<p>Charging at public stations is not free. EV charging station owners are the ones who set a markup for their fees. Factors like electricity price, project cost, and the pricing method dictate businesses the markup they can add to make a monthly profit.&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span style="color: #000000;">13. Currently, America has 53,000 charging stations and needs to build 500,000 in total by 2030.</span></h3>
<p>Yes, the EV charging infrastructure is progressing fast and has to move even faster if we hope to achieve this goal by 2030. Together with states and municipalities, businesses can receive funding and speed up EV adoption by providing chargers at their premises.&nbsp;</p>
<p><br /><br /></p>
<h3><span style="color: #000000;">14. In 2021, the EVSE market was valued at $3.14 billion, and experts predict a 36.18% growth by 2030, estimated to be $49.20 billion.</span></h3>
<p>For all business owners out there, grab the opportunity while it's still developing.&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span style="color: #000000;">15. The last 20% of charging is the slowest.&nbsp;&nbsp;</span></h3>
<p>This also affects the time EV drivers might spend on the business premises. As with phones, laptops, and other technology, when you start charging a relatively low lithium-ion cell or battery, there are lots of spaces for the ions to find a place for themselves, and the charging is faster. Once it reaches 80%-90%, it takes longer for the ions to find available spaces.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span style="color: #000000;">16. It takes longer for EV batteries to charge in cold weather, and they overheat faster in hot weather.</span></h3>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span style="color: #000000;">17. EV chargers have a lower carbon footprint than gas stations, and EVs generate zero carbon during their lifespan, while ICE cars continuously pollute our environment.</span></h3>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span style="color: #000000;">18. Every EV charging station uses Wi-Fi or cellular connectivity for its software.</span></h3>
<p>Installing proper software is essential to monitoring your commercial electric charging stations. The software application allows you to manage and operate chargers remotely, receive real-time notifications and analysis, set pricing and billings, recover lost data, and has many other useful features. The only condition for getting all these benefits is to add your stations to local network charging operators by providing a Wi-Fi or cellular internet connection.&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span style="color: #000000;">19. An average driver spends around 95% of the time in parking, which means offering public charging is a good business opportunity.</span>&nbsp;</h3>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span style="color: #000000;">20. A commercial charging station connects to network operators and can be visible on American EV charging maps.</span></h3>
<p>EV charging owners use software apps to operate their chargers remotely and pin their business on public EV charging maps - Google Maps, ChargeFinder, Chargemap, Chargeway, PlugShare, etc. Making the chargers visible on public maps increases the possibility of attracting new clients - EV drivers and making the business a welcoming stopping point on their trips.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span style="color: #000000;">21. The Level 2 commercial EV charger is the most common choice for businesses to receive a new revenue stream.</span></h3>
<p>Unlike Level 1 EV charging stations, which are slow and inconvenient, and Level 3, which are extremely expensive - the Level 2 ones are a perfect match for any business. They have high power output and a cost range of $500-$10,000, and installing a single EV station can bring a monthly revenue of $2,000.</p>
<h3>&nbsp;</h3>
<h3><span style="color: #000000;">22. You can benefit from state/private rebates and incentive programs that cover up to 90% of costs.</span></h3>
<p>&nbsp;The Biden Administration has approved the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, and all 50 states have recently received their initial round of funding. Each state and municipality will offer rebates and incentives to cover up to 90% of EV charging installation and purchase costs.&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span style="color: #000000;">23. Companies like Energy5 provide turnkey EV charging solutions and handle all the work for businesses.</span></h3>

Tesla makes EV charging and Zoom meetings a smooth experience

How to make your business visible to EV drivers 

<p>Technology adoption takes time until it reaches the mainstream level, and EVs and EV chargers are no exception. Every person values their comfort zone because new market trends create uncertainty. And uncertainty creates anxiety, which stops people from buying an electric car and getting proof of its value. Some people remark that our country needs more electric charging stations but don't even consult a map to see if their conviction is valid.&nbsp;</p>
<p>How long do we have to fear new technologies and resist unfamiliar products? The turning point is closer when you think. The latest numbers show a 60% increase in EV sales, which proves that we've changed our mindset. We don't fear costs. We don't resist the electric car acceptance. We are ready to leave our comfort zone and embrace innovation. But we need businesses eager to help our country build the EV charging infrastructure. And businesses have to understand how to handle EV drivers, who are their potential customers and how to make their location visible to everyone on the roads.</p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">People are familiar with regular cars and know they can find countless gas and petrol stations on every corner. Why shouldn't they be comfortable with their mobility when you can refuel your car even in the most remote locations?&nbsp;</span></p>
<blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">The fastest way to sway a driver toward switching to an EV is to understand their fueling patterns with ICE cars. </span></p>
</blockquote>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">When it comes to electric car charging stations, "fueling" and searching for a charger on the map becomes a challenge. Drivers are uncertain about how long the charging will take, and most important, what do they do in the meantime?</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">The "top off" fueling method</span></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Pinning car charger points on a public map is a great opportunity to attract new customers by becoming ready to meet their charging behaviors. One typical behavior of ICE car drivers is to top off their gas or petrol tank whenever the gas needle lowers above its maximum level. Experts predict that EV drivers will soon adopt this model of charging their own vehicles. Drivers will locate your business and stop for a quick "top off" of their car's batteries while running errands.&nbsp;</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">The "pump upon need" fueling method</span></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The second pattern of fueling ICE cars is "to pump upon need," and this usually happens when gas lights turn on - the main anxiety trigger for EV drivers. Range and charge anxiety is why many people refuse to buy electric cars or prefer to charge at home overnight. </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Psychologists analyzing driving patterns expect EV drivers to adopt the same fueling "pump upon need" method more often and get a full charge at public locations. </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Once you put your chargers on top electric car charging maps, drivers will stick around longer at your business to charge their EV batteries.</span></p>

Know these "fueling" patterns before pinning your electric charger on the map

<p>One of the most recent surveys regarding EV charging has shown that people spend only 5% of their day driving and the other 95% in parking. So what is the fuss about the lack of electric charging points on the map? Drivers form specific daily patterns that suit their lifestyle and driving style. Once they switch to EVs, they reserve the same preferences and hope to find an EV charger that fits more needs than just its particular location on the map. Electric car drivers look for the following:</p>
<ul>
<li aria-level="1">Convenience,</li>
<li aria-level="1">Economic value,</li>
<li aria-level="1">Availability,</li>
<li aria-level="1">Variety,</li>
<li aria-level="1">Visibility.</li>
</ul>

Behavioral patterns that shape car charger preferences on map 

<h3>The convenience of finding car charger points on the map is the number 1 priority.</h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Our psychological mindset constantly sets barriers that stop us from buying EVs. Until we have at least one charger for every 15 miles of road, we will drive our convenient ICE cars. But here is the other side of the coin. We already have EV drivers, and they already need EV chargers. And convenience dictates&nbsp; EV drivers&rsquo; behavior.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">People who drive EVs plan their daily trips around businesses that have chargers on their premises. If they have a long-distance drive, they highlight every car charger on the map. They eat at restaurants where they can charge. They book hotels that have chargers. They shop for groceries or have fun at locations that provide EV chargers. Installing electric car stations for drivers to charge batteries and pinning your business on the map will definitely make your place visible to customers.</span></p>

<h3>Visibility boosts the time EV drivers spend at your location.&nbsp;</h3>
<p>Several experiments in New York, California, and other American states have shown impressive results regarding EV drivers&rsquo; behavior. A regular ICE car driver spends 22 minutes while parked, and an EV driver spends, on average, 72 minutes while charging their electric car. Even more, the dwelling time grows if the business provides loyalty rewards, subscriptions, Wi-Fi, coffee, gym, or more amenities for their clients. If businesses register their EV charging stations on Google Maps, they automatically improve visibility and increase overall the customers' dwelling time by 20%-40%.</p>

<p>The phenomenon of social proof dictates how people adapt to new things. The higher the number of EV drivers and electric charging stations on the map, the higher the acceptance level from society.&nbsp;</p>
<blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Businesses are the ones that have the mission to educate new driving patterns and make EV chargers visible to people on the roads.</span></p>

Be a role model for EV drivers by setting an example worth following

Afraid your business won't be visible to EV drivers?

Why businesses install public EV charging stations

<p>Every conscious American is eager to help our country achieve political, economic, and social goals whenever asked. Now more than ever, citizens strive to answer another call and become energy efficient. Each banner, news article, and social media post speaks at length about decreasing energy expenses and going green for our environment. We may not have thousands of dollars to spare for environmental activism or scientific innovation, but starting small can bring significant results.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The most accessible way to promote energy-efficient solutions is to drive an electric car. In the first quarter of 2022, EV sales soared to 60% and hit a new record, while the third quarter registered a number of 200,000 sold electric cars. With so many EVs on public roads, expanding the construction of electric vehicle charging stations is a priority - and Americans are once again ready to be helpful. But here is the tricky question. Do we choose to drive EVs and upgrade our business with charging stations because it's trendy and profitable, or do we really care about our environmental impact?</p>

<p>People have long considered driving an EV to be fancy and showy, a sign of exclusiveness and wealth. But recently, things have pivoted. Statistics show that 36% of Americans plan to buy an electric car, and the other 35% seriously consider this option. The EV trend touched every household in some way because 44% of people saw electric vehicles in their neighborhoods.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Unsurprisingly, the EV trend touched every business as well. Around 61% of public surveys show that people hesitate to buy an electric car because of charge anxiety - the fear that they won't find charging stations on the road. Multiple companies purchase and install public electric vehicle charging stations on their premises to allure and turn EV drivers into their customers. And it works.&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3>Public Charging is no longer an issue, with more than 140,000 EV charging ports at stations.</h3>
<p>There are currently 140,000 charging ports in the USA, of which 56,000 are public EV charging stations. The Biden Administration has a five-year plan to invest $7.5 billion to build a national network of 500,000 EV stations, but the private sector also wants to do its part. Hotels, restaurants, gas stations, health institutions, gyms, etc., install chargers to become "trendy." Why invest money in marketing strategies when you can get visible on EV networks and have an extra option of advertising your products to new customers?</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3>"My business competitors have public charging stations. Why shouldn't I?"</h3>
<p>It's little wonder that business owners borrow ideas from their competitors. As the famous quote says, "The grass is greener on the other side." When everyone around you installs EV chargers, it's easy to assume you need them too. You want to take advantage of the trend. And why shouldn't you?</p>
<blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Purchasing and installing EV chargers have many benefits for a business, such as getting new customers, an extra source of income, visibility, a better reputation, sales increase, and many more. </span></p>
</blockquote>
<p>The first conclusion we can establish at this point is that public <a href="https://evcharging.energy5.com/">electric car charging stations</a> are trendy but still remain a good business model for making money.&nbsp;</p>

The public trend of installing electric car charging stations 

<p>We might create and run businesses for better purposes and bigger missions, but our first goal is always the same - we want to make money. Purchasing and installing electric car charging stations is a great opportunity to get a new revenue stream, and many companies seize this chance. Although DCFC (Level 3) chargers are expensive and Level 1 are too slow for public use, Level 2 charging stations are perfect for any business. One charger can bring up to $2,000 monthly and significantly improve profits. On average, installing one charger costs between $1,200-$6,000, but businesses know that they have an excellent ROI index and other advantages.&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3>How do EV chargers make money?</h3>
<p>General fact - electricity is not free. Customers who stop at any business pay to charge their cars. As charger owners, companies have the liberty to set the price they like, be it a fee per hour, per kWh, per session, or a combination of the above. Businesses add the markup and estimate the potential <a href="https://evcharging.energy5.com/">electric car revenue</a> from each station. Even more, installing public electric car charging stations bring indirect revenue. What can be better than selling more products and services to people who wait for their cars to charge?&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3>EV incentives can cover up to 90% of the public charging station's cost.</h3>
<p>A business is not a proper one unless the owners constantly search for ways to save money. The first thought once someone reads, "Level 2 charger costs between $1,200 and $6,000," is, "No way I'll spend this money on a charger." As usual, our country has planned everything for its citizens.</p>
<blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Since EV adoption is a top priority for achieving zero carbon emissions by 2050, America invests billions in EVSE infrastructure, incentives, and tax grants.</span></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Some public electric car incentives can cover up to 90% of EV charging station purchase and installation costs. Companies like Energy5 can help with EV incentives applications by offering turnkey EV charging solutions. Now, this seems like a business plan worth pursuing.&nbsp;</p>

Don't be ashamed to admit in public - EV charging stations are a profitable business  

<p>The question still lingers in our minds - do people install chargers because they want to make money, or do they care about their energy efficiency and our environment? Installing EV charging stations seems like an easy way to speed up EV adoption.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Electric cars have zero tailpipe emissions. EV manufacturers have improved the battery production efficiency to reduce their carbon footprint and plan to use eco materials for future engineering processes. Some states power their public charging stations from renewable energy sources, which have zero effects on our environment. The benefits of installing an EV charger are obvious.&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3>More EVs need More Public Charging Stations</h3>
<p>We will fulfill the Net-Zero protocol only by following clear-defined strategic plans. In the next 5 years, the USA has to add 500,000 charging stations to the national network. Expanding the EV charging infrastructure requires many resources, and businesses take advantage of rebates and electric car incentives to provide the necessary resources. This partnership between public agencies and private companies establishes the foundation for building the electric car charging stations infrastructure.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3>The first step to growing an energy-saving company with EV chargers</h3>
<p>Every business owner knows you don't become green, sustainable, and energy-efficient overnight. The process can be daunting and full of obstacles, but the results are worth it. That's why businesses start with the most obvious solution by providing chargers for EV drivers. Companies are proactively grabbing the chance to transform our mindset toward a productive energy efficiency partnership. They are the first to create sustainable jobs, add renewable energy sources, reduce their carbon footprint, install EV chargers, and communicate these priorities to people. The latest survey from Forbes shows that 92% of customers trust environmentally conscious brands. This is what we call a win-win situation.</p>

The public reason behind EV charging stations - Environment Protection

<p>The future of EVs is closer than you think. Sooner than later, everyone will drive noiselessly on the roads and need more EV chargers to speed up America's EV adoption plans. Whether you care about our environment, consider it a trend, or want additional income - installing public EV charging stations and <a href="https://evcharging.energy5.com/ev-software">EV charging software</a> is a great solution for a business.&nbsp;</p>
