What are the biggest barriers to EV charging and how can businesses overcome them??? Overcoming the key hurdles to #EV charging is crucial for businesses making the transition to an electric fleet. 🔌 Infrastructure Procurement: Acquiring and installing the necessary charging infrastructure can be a significant challenge. From selecting the right #EVSE, to long lead/installation times, and high costs the procurement process requires careful planning and investment. 💡 Charging Logistics: Managing the logistics of charging a fleet adds complexity to operations. Businesses have to consider factors like charging station availability, scheduling, and optimizing charging times to minimize downtime and ensure vehicles are ready for use when needed. ⚡ Charging Speed and Downtime: Charging an EV takes time. Balancing the charging needs of vehicles with operational requirements while minimizing downtime is crucial for fleet managers to maintain efficiency and productivity. ✅ The SparkCharge Solution: Solving these hurdles for businesses was exactly why SparkCharge was created.
