Why Choose Commercial EV Chargers in Ireland

Eco-friendliness – electric vans produce no CO2 or NOx emissions as they drive around, meaning their widespread adoption has the potential to dramatically improve air quality, especially in urban areas.
Running Costs – typically e-vans are considerably cheaper to run than diesel alternatives. Not only is the cost per mile of ‘fuel’ (electricity) lower, there are fewer moving parts and they are less hard on their brakes, reducing maintenance costs.
Buying Incentives – also helping to lower running costs, these include the government plug-in van grant.

Investing in commercial EV chargers is not just a smart move for your business; it’s a commitment to sustainability and future-proofing your operations.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many EV chargers should we install in our carpark?

1.The number of EV chargers you should install depends on several factors related to your business. To make an informed decision, consider the following aspects:

2.Evaluate the number of EV drivers associated with your business, including employees, visitors, and other relevant parties. The more users you have, the more chargers you may need to accommodate them.

3.Take your budget into account. Ensure that your budget covers both the installation costs and the ongoing energy usage to operate the chargers effectively.

4.Consider your energy grid's capacity and the size of the chargers you plan to install. These factors will influence how many chargers your infrastructure can support without overloading the system.

5.Decide whether you want to future-proof your business by accounting for potential increases in EV adoption and demand.

6.Determine the primary purpose of installing EV chargers. Are you aiming for profit generation, gaining a competitive edge, or fulfilling internal needs? Clarifying this goal will help align your charger installation strategy with your overall business objectives.

By carefully considering these factors, you can determine the optimal number of EV chargers to install in your car park.

How much does installing EV chargers in our carpark cost?

The cost varies depending on the charger, but it typically amounts to between €4,000 and €6,000 per charger. This includes hardware (i.e. the physical charger), software, cabling, and installation.

EV chargers can be paid for upfront, via monthly repayments or can be bundled into a PPA.

How long does installing EV chargers take?

Commercial electric vehicle charger installation can take up to anywhere between 4 hours to 3 days. The time frame depends on the number of chargers and your existing electricity system.

My business already has solar installed. Can we power our EV chargers with that?

Yes, you can. While it depends on the brand of the EV charger, most chargers are able to utilise the solar power previously installed. If most charging on your premises will occur during daylight hours, powering them using solar-generated energy is a highly cost-efficient way to go.
