EV Business Podcast

Apartment complexes and MDU owners face growing pressure to offer reliable, accessible, and profitable EV charging that connects seamlessly with public EV charging networks. Here’s the surprising truth — public-access chargers at apartments see 50–80% higher utilization than resident-only units, and properties that enable public use can unlock up to 40% more in financial incentives.  Yet many owners and integrators struggle with charger-to-network compatibility issues, billing system errors, and loss of property branding once chargers go public. In this podcast episode, we’ll unpack how to overcome these hurdles and discover proven ways to deploy EV charging systems that work flawlessly with public networks—boosting revenue, reliability, and resident satisfaction.
