Commercial EV Charger Installation St. Louis

Commercial EV Charger Installation St. Louis

Electric vehicles (EVs) are paving the way for cleaner transportation. Rising electric and hybrid passenger vehicle sales have increased the need for charging station availability.

Meanwhile—as EV costs continue falling and sustainability becomes more prominent—top companies are transitioning to electrified fleets to meet their goals.

If you’re considering commercial EV charger installation for your St. Louis business, look no further than Brda Electric. Our engineers build custom EV charging stations for all applications. Or, if you need to expand your existing charging infrastructure, we’ll get it done with no disruption.

EV Charging Station Installation Services

Brda installs two types of commercial EV charging stations:

Level 2

Level 2 EV chargers use a 240V outlet and plug (similar to a residential washer and dryer) and deliver 12-60 charging miles per hour. Their 240-volt, 40-60 amp circuit accommodates all plug-in hybrid and electric vehicles. Level 2 stations are ideal in places where drivers park for several hours.

Level 3 (DC Fast Charging Stations)

Level 3 EV chargers use a 480V direct-current (DC) plug, requiring industrial-grade electricity. These stations provide an 80% charge in less than 30 minutes and are found primarily in on-the-go locations like retail centers, major highways and public charging centers.

The Tesla Supercharger is Level 3, providing half a charge in about 20 minutes. However, these models only work with Tesla vehicles and EVs with a charging adapter.

Aside from choosing between Level 2 or 3, another consideration is whether to install a wall-mounted or pedestal charging station. You can also connect your EV charger to the Internet of Things (IoT) to monitor payment processing and energy use. Our technicians can help you find the best commercial charging arrangement for your operational needs.

Benefits of Commercial EV Charger Installation

Adding electric charging provides wide-ranging benefits for property owners and managers in government, commercial and industrial sectors. EV charging stations are amenities that increase property values while empowering guests and staff to drive their vehicles of choice (range anxiety-free).

Commercial EV charger installation offers sustainable solutions for offices, schools, retail parking lots and multi-family real estate. Charging stations also enable wider use of rapidly advancing EV technology in our present and future lifestyles.

Other notable EV charging station benefits include:

Employee Perks

Enable your team to recharge their EVs while they work. Onsite charging stations are a value-add for any employee benefits package, enhancing convenience and demonstrating your commitment to renewable energy.

Residential Charging Stations for Multi-Family Apartments and Condos

Apartment and condominium complexes can fetch premium rental values by offering EV charging amenities. The option to recharge at home instead of searching for a public station is a perk that’s hard to pass up for EV drivers, especially busy professionals.

EV Charging Convenience for Retail Stores and Shopping Malls

Parking area recharge stations enhance customer convenience and attract new visitors. Repeat visitors will appreciate being able to charge up while shopping. Plus, you’ll attract travelers with an EV to charge and time to kill (what better way to wait than perusing around?).

Hotels and Resorts

Traveling anywhere with limited charger availability is a real concern for EV drivers. A commercial-grade EV charging station puts guests' fears to rest and removes any objection to a prolonged visit. Providing this service enables your guests to explore further, offering a decisive advantage over competitors.

Fleet Electrification and Hybridization

More businesses are realizing the cost and operational efficiency of converting to plug-in hybrid or all-electric vehicles. The top logistical concern, of course, is designing high-volume charging that meets your EV fleet requirements. Luckily, charging stations are a scalable solution that you can grow over time as operations expand.
