Commercial EV Charging Station Installation
As electric vehicles (EV) become more commonly used, the need for more EV charging stations grows. Many commercial properties in California are investing in EV charging station installation for their employees and customers. There is a growing demand for charging stations, and DRYCO is here to help you meet that demand.
EV Charging Station Installation is Easy
As a general contractor (GC), you need a partner you can trust for the concrete and asphalt aspects of installing an EV charging station for a client. This is the DRYCO process:
- Once the contract is secured and plans have been developed for the EV charging station, DRYCO will perform trenching and underground work for the electrician. The electrician will then install the wiring conduit and give DRYCO the EV charging station mounting hardware.
- DRYCO uses our concrete services to install concrete pedestals and EV station mounting hardware. Then, we use our asphalt expertise to perform backfill and patch paving on the surrounding asphalt.
- The electrician will then install the EV charging units. For the finishing touch, DRYCO will perform pavement striping to mark the new parking spaces for the EV stations.
What kind of commercial EV charging stations are there?
There are three levels of EV charging stations that vary based on the charge speed.
Level I EV Charging Stations
The Level I EV charging station is usually the most affordable option, but it is also the slowest EV charging station. They usually give cars enough of a charge for three to five miles of travel per hour. If you are planning to make your EV charging stations available to customers, this is likely not the best choice. However, if these are only available for employees to charge while at work or tenants in an apartment building, these can be a great choice.
Level II EV Charging Stations
The Level II charging station is the most common choice for a commercial property. They charge an electric car about five times faster than a Level I station. They use 208/240V and 30 amp electricity.
Level III EV Charging Stations
The Level III charging stations, also known as DC Fast Chargers, will give a car a charge of 80 – 400+ miles per hour. However, they are the most expensive charger, so they are not as commonly used as Level I and Level II. The Level III is usually only found at rest stops and car dealerships, where there are a lot of vehicles that need charging at a faster speed.
