You can ensure your vehicle is fully charged every morning, ready for your daily commute. Charging at night allows you to take advantage of lower electricity costs during off-peak hours, avoiding peak pricing and waking up to a full battery.

We’ve observed that properties equipped with EV chargers often see an increase in value. This modern upgrade appeals to environmentally conscious buyers and represents a forward-thinking home improvement.

You can choose from many different types of chargers, whether it be a standard 50A plug-in charger a Tesla Charger or smart wifi chargers that you can monitor remotely. You can also charge plug-in hybrids using Level 1 charging, which is sufficient for overnight charging, or use a Level 2 charger to charge in 4-8 hours fully.

Commercial spaces are one of the most needed spaces for electric vehicle chargers. Level 3 chargers, also known as fast chargers, use a direct current connection to an electrical system and can charge an electric vehicle in 1-4 hours, or as quick as 15 minutes for a plug-in hybrid. These fast chargers are more commonly found in commercial spaces and are open for use to any electric vehicle owner.

EV chargers are also becoming available at gas stations to cater to the growing number of electric vehicles.

We often see the electrical service is oversized and does not have the capacity to add chargers, but the question is how many chargers and how do you allocate the funds to charge your vehicle? For EV drivers, charging during off-peak hours can take advantage of lower electricity costs, and the installation of Level 2 charging stations at home is common. This infrastructure is essential for a sustainable future in driving.

CSK Electric offers a consultation service to work alongside BC Hydro to assess your property, tell you exactly how many chargers you can install, and educate you on how to appropriately charge out your chargers to progressively pay off the installation.
