Strata Communal Charging
Charging stations can be a great first step on your EV road map to carbon-neutral travel and environmental friendliness.
Installing a Communal EV Charging Station in Your Multi-Tenanted Residential Building
As electric vehicles (EVs) become more popular, providing convenient and accessible charging solutions for residents is essential. Installing a communal EV charging station in your multi-tenanted building enhances property value and attracts eco-conscious tenants and buyers alike.
Communal charging stations are great if you’re not expecting a big uptake in EV owners in your building for many years to come
Here’s why a communal charging station might be the perfect solution for your building.
How The NRG Company Can Help
We here at The NRG Company specialise in simplifying the intricate process of adopting electric vehicle (EV) charging stations for your business. Our expertise encompasses every phase, from the initial selection to the installation and ongoing management of these essential assets.
Lower Initial Investment
The communal setup typically involves much cheaper initial setup costs, making it more affordable than individual chargers.
Quick and Easy Setup
Installing a single, shared charging station is faster and less disruptive than multiple private installations.
When installing a single or dual charging station, the first consideration should be its location. Ideal spots include visitor parking areas, car wash bays, or any outdoor space that can be effectively utilised.
The second consideration would be the location of an electrical panel. A fast-charging EV station will typically be 22Kw. This is a sizable amount of electricity, equivalent to 3 large room-sized air conditioners. But don’t worry too much about this, we can also install special equipment to alleviate any problems with your electrical infrastructure, this is known as Dynamic Load Management. This ensures the fastest possible charge for the amount of electricity available at any given moment in time.
Long-Term Planning
Future-Proofing: While communal chargers are a great start, the growing uptake of EVs will eventually require more comprehensive charging facilities. If you have many visitor parking spaces this may not be an issue as more chargers could be installed when needed.
Demand Management
Wait Times: As more residents acquire EVs, there might be periods of high demand, leading to potential wait times for charging.
Visitor Parking
Regulatory Compliance: Some visitor parking spaces may need to be used for the charging station. It’s important to check local council regulations to ensure compliance with required visitor parking space quotas.
