Evolving with Electric: Why Multifamily Properties Should Embrace the Ongoing EV Revolution 

Last Updated: February 12nd, 2024 | Multifamily

Electric vehicles (EVs) are revolutionizing the automotive industry, with a growing number of people switching from traditional gasoline-powered cars. In fact, 9% of all new passenger vehicles sold in the US in 2023 were electrified. As the EV revolution continues to gain momentum, multifamily properties have a unique opportunity. They can choose to both embrace this transformation and see bottom-line benefits by integrating adding EV charging solution to condos and apartments.

Misconceptions about EV charging for condos and apartments

One common belief among property owners is that the EV revolution has not gained enough momentum to justify investing in EV charging infrastructure. However, the reality is quite different. Bloomberg NEF predicts that by 2026, 28% of passenger vehicles sold will be EVs. That means current and future residents need at-home charging options at multifamily residences.

Taking advantage of the rise in EV charging

This upward trend in EV adoption presents a significant opportunity for multifamily properties looking to seize opportunities for growth and differentiation. By offering EV charging solutions for condos, property owners can attract EV-driving tenants. They’ll retain residents who already have or want to purchase EVs, and gain a competitive edge in the market. EV drivers need to charge; doing so at home can be a significant convenience and can generate additional revenue streams for property owners. Moreover, cities and states nationwide are starting to require electrification plans for newly built condos and apartments. Existing properties with these amenities will experience a clear increase in property values.

Hands-off management through software for multifamily EV charging

Initiating the setup of an EV charging solutions at your apartment marks just the beginning of the process. Savvy property owners, however, take it a step further by leveraging software-powered EV charging management platforms to streamline operations and maximize the benefits of their new investment.

Overcoming potential challenges: managing the transition to EV charging with ease

While the benefits of EV charging are clear, it’s natural to fear the challenges that might come with starting up a new EV charging program. Common hurdles may include:

  • Navigating regulatory requirements
  • Allocating sufficient space for charging stations
  • Planning how to control access and measure usage
  • Managing the installation process
