I am an apartment dweller. I can't imagine insisting the owners or even the town put in a charging systems because I want cheaper charging at someone else's expense. At least the couple in the article put their money where their mouth is and paid for their own curbside charging station.
“I am an apartment dweller. I can’t imagine insisting the owners or even the town put in a charging systems because I want cheaper charging at someone else’s expense.”
Home charging stations are $300-1200 installed. $300 for level one, $1000-1200 for level 2 and the price will come down.
I am a landlord. Down the road if my tenants have EV I will put them in.
I would think apartment owners would only make an investment like that in order to make money for themselves which they would do by charging their tenants for the charging using a meter of some sort.
Of course those who don’t charge would end up paying part of it anyway. For example, most apartment complexes have swimming pools because it draws in tenants. So every tenant pays even if they never use the pool.
Primarily, I was thinking of a large employer who must compete for engineers or other talent.
