Installation and maintenance of the EV charging infrastructure is free-of-charge to the building owner, commercial agent, freeholder or property manager.
Electric vehicle (EV) charging solutions provider ChargeGuru UK is expanding its Fully-Funded Solution to office buildings.
It means that installation and maintenance of the EV charging infrastructure is free-of-charge to the building owner, commercial agent, freeholder or property manager. There is no upfront investment or ongoing management required by the property.
This solution removes the hassle of seeking out a public charger for workers with EVs and demonstrates a commitment to accelerating widespread EV adoption. It follows the roll-out of the Fully-Funded Solution for apartment blocks, which sees tenants in need of EV charging capabilities receiving easy and accessible installations on-site.
“We know that the average car in the UK is stationary for around 95 per cent of lifetime,” said Denis Watling, managing director, ChargeGuru UK. “The vast majority of this time is spent parked up at home or at work. Following the success of our Fully-Funded Solution for apartment blocks, it’s a natural next step to expand the offering to UK office buildings, too.
“Our solutions provide property owners and managers the opportunity to increase the value of their buildings and spotlight their commitment to sustainability at zero cost”
“By removing the financial and administrative barriers for property owners and managers in both the apartment and office block environment, we’re empowering tenants to charge their EVs when it suits them, rather than having to always rely on the public charging network. That’s good news for current and future EV drivers.”
ChargeGuru invests in and fully manages the EV charging technology, monitoring usage through the installation of an independent electricity meter and ensuring bills for the chargers are kept separate.
The company pays for all electricity used by the Fully-Funded Solution and then re-bills this to the businesses which have subscribed to the solution and use the chargers. Maintenance of these chargers is also managed by ChargeGuru, meaning building stakeholders can be hands-off while still reaping the benefits of on-site private charging.
The individual EV chargers are installed in each designated parking space as and when needed, meaning businesses can expand and improve their infrastructure over time.
Watling added: “Our solutions provide property owners and managers the opportunity to increase the value of their buildings and spotlight their commitment to sustainability at zero cost, all whilst making charging easier and more accessible for EV owners in their properties. That’s good news for property owners and managers.”
