A must have building amenity
Greener mobility
Electric vehicles (EVs) are becoming increasingly popular as people become more aware of the environmental benefits they offer. However, the environmental benefits of EVs go beyond just zero-emission transportation.
Residential buildings equipped with EV charging stations become more attractive to potential buyers and renters. Having charging infrastructure readily available adds value to the property, making it a desirable investment.
Residents who own EVs and have access to residential charging stations save significantly on fuel costs compared to gasoline-powered vehicles.
EV charging infrastructure in residential buildings not only supports environmental sustainability but also contributes to economic growth and improved quality of life for residents.

The Challenge
Installing Electric Vehicle (EV) charging stations in residential buildings, especially multi-unit residential buildings (MURBs), presents several technical challenges.
In Canada, according to this study, approximately 1/3 of residents live in residential buildings and only a fraction have access to EV Charging.
In the United States, about 31.4% of housing consists of multifamily residences (which include MURBs).
In British Columbia, 82.4% of total residential building registrations are for multi-unit homes, indicating a significant proportion of the population living in MURBs.
Diving into the specific challenges:
Technical Requirements and Cost
Upgrading existing electrical systems to accommodate EV chargers can be costly and challenging.
Complex Administrative Layers
Strata bylaws, rules, and decision-making processes within the building management layers can slow down the installation process.
Stakeholder Coordination
Multiple stakeholders are involved, including condo boards, property managers, electrical contractors, and utility companies.
Space Constraints
MURBs often have limited space for installing charging stations.
Regulatory Compliance
Complying with local regulations, building codes, and safety standards is essential. However, navigating these requirements can be time-consuming and confusing.
Future-Proofing Infrastructure
As EV technology evolves, ensuring that installed charging infrastructure remains compatible with newer EV models is crucial.
Our Ai-powered EV Charging Network works autonomously making sure that your car receives the power it needs to get charged as fast as possible with the electrical infrastructure available in your building. It connects to multiple brands of EV Charging Stations and reports to you and your building managers.
And that’s not all, our software solution replaces the need for several hardware components like sub-meters and current sensors to manage billing and power. This significantly reduces the infrastructure costs needed to install EV Charging Stations.
