Business EV Charger Installations
Power your electric fleet and support your Net Zero and carbon reduction goals with a workplace electric vehicle charging solution
As more businesses transition their company cars, vans and commercial fleets to electric vehicles, having reliable charging infrastructure at your sites is a must.
Professional Energy Services can support your business with planning and delivering of an EV charging solution that meets your operational, energy and sustainability requirements.
Our Business EV Charger Installation Service Can Include:
Site and Fleet Assessment
We begin by understanding your business, vehicle fleet and operational requirements with the following assessment:
- The number and type of vehicles being used
- Daily mileage and vehicle duty cycles
- How long vehicles remain parked
- Current and future fleet plans
- Employee or visitor charging requirements
- The number of business locations involved
- Energy consumption at each site
This information helps determine the number, location and type of chargers required.
Electrical Capacity Review
As EV chargers create additional electricity demand, it is important to understand whether your existing supply can support the proposed installation.
Our consultants perform a review of:
- Available electrical capacity
- Existing site demand
- Metering and supply arrangements
- Distribution equipment
- Potential network or connection requirements
- Opportunities for smart load management
- Future expansion requirements
Where additional capacity or electrical works are required, we coordinate and manage the appropriate suppliers and contractors necessary for the installation.
Charging Strategy and Equipment Selection
We identify a charging solution based on how your vehicles operate and how long they are available to charge.
Depending on your requirements, the proposed solution may include:
- Standard, fast or rapid charging
- Individual or multiple charging points
- Fleet-only access
- Employee and visitor charging
- User authentication and access controls
- Smart charging and load balancing
- Usage monitoring and reporting
- Payment or cost-allocation functionality
- Infrastructure that can be expanded in the future
Our independent approach helps ensure that the recommended solution is based on your requirements rather than a single technology or manufacturer.
Supplier and Installation Project Management
We provide EV charger installations through established energy suppliers, specialist installation partners and subcontractors.
We help source suitable providers, review the proposed solution and coordinate the different parties involved in your project.
Physical installation, electrical works, commissioning and specialist maintenance are completed by the appointed third-party provider under their relevant terms, warranties and technical accreditations.
Energy Contract and Tariff Review
Introducing an electric fleet will change the amount and timing of electricity consumed at your sites.
As an experienced business energy consultancy, PES reviews how this additional demand may affect your energy contract and procurement strategy.
We help you consider:
- Expected charging consumption
- Changes to your site demand profile
- Contract capacity and associated charges
- Fixed or flexible energy procurement options
- Suitable business electricity tariffs
- Renewable energy contracts
- Metering and consumption reporting
- Opportunities to reduce avoidable charging costs
This ensures that your EV infrastructure and energy contract are considered together rather than treated as separate projects.
Renewable Energy and Carbon Support
We support our clients with renewable energy procurement, carbon measurement and the development of a wider carbon reduction plan which includes:
- Procuring electricity supported by renewable energy certificates
- Reviewing on-site renewable generation opportunities
- Measuring EV charging consumption
- Incorporating fleet changes into carbon reporting
- Setting realistic carbon reduction targets
- Monitoring progress against your Net Zero strategy
By connecting your fleet, energy and carbon strategies, your business can make more informed sustainability decisions.
Benefits of Business EV Charger Installations
Support Your Electric Fleet Transition
On-site charging gives your fleet access to reliable infrastructure at the beginning or end of the working day.
This makes it easier to introduce electric company cars, vans and other commercial vehicles without relying entirely on public charging networks.
Reduce Fleet Carbon Emissions
Replacing petrol or diesel vehicles with suitable electric alternatives reduces the direct emissions associated with your fleet and support your wider carbon reduction plan.
Improve Control of Charging Costs
Charging vehicles at your own premises gives you greater visibility of when energy is being consumed and how much each vehicle or charging point is using.
EV Charging Grants and Funding
Government grants, supplier-funded schemes and other incentives may sometimes be available to support the cost of workplace EV charging.
The availability, value and eligibility requirements of these schemes can change. PES helps you understand whether any current funding options may be relevant to your proposed project.
Grant approval or funding cannot be guaranteed and will remain subject to the applicable scheme criteria.
