The Shortcomings of EV Charging at Multi-Unit Dwellings – A Problem with a Solution
Developers of multi-unit dwellings need to look at the trends of the electrical vehicle (EV) marketplace. With EVs on the rise, these developers need to think about meeting the growing adoption of electric vehicles. Younger consumers are buying EVs, and it’s because of the benefits of decreased localized pollution from eliminated tail-pipe emissions, creating healthier and happier communities, and not having to pay for gas week after week, month after month.
