The document outlines the benefits and logistics of workplace electric vehicle (EV) charging, highlighting that employees are significantly more likely to drive plug-in EVs if charging is available at work. It emphasizes the cost-effectiveness of using Level 1 chargers, which can replenish most EV batteries during the workday, compared to more expensive Level 2 chargers. The analysis suggests that providing free charging is less costly than charging users for electricity and offers a competitive edge in attracting and retaining talent.

Our simple, economical, unique solution

2. WORKPLACE CHARGING IMPACT - explained in these slides:
Recently
the
Department
of
Energy's
"Workplace
Charging
Challenge"
survey
of
employers
that
offer
workplace
charging,
revealed
that:
1. Employees
that
are
offered
charging
at
work
are
20
;mes
more
likely
to
drive
a
Plugin
Electric
Vehicle.
2. The
survey
also
showed
that
80%
of
these
employees
offered
this
as
a
benefit
to
retain
and
aFract
a
talented
modern
workforce,
by
not
charging
their
employees.
According
to
the
US
Department
of
TransportaDon,
Bureau
of
TransportaDon
(2014)
1. Since
78%
of
commuters
drive
20
miles
or
less
to
work,
replenishing
this
amount
of
electricity
is
consistent
and
equals
the
cost
of
a
cup
of
coffee
in
the
break-­‐room.
2. This
means
that
companies
don't
need
to
install
$5000,
higher
powered,
faster,
communica;ng,
chargers.
Many
willing
companies
are
gePng
discouraged
by
these
industry
prac;ces
and
prices.
Simple
level
1
chargers
or
the
lower
powered
Level
2,
like
the
Telefonix
PowerPostEVSE
product
line,
is
a
simple,
safe
and
prac;cal
solu;on.

3. WORKPLACE CHARGING REALITY
“An
analysis
by
Plug
In
America
suggests
that
the
least
expensive
Level
1
chargers
are
the
best
use
of
company
resources,
because
most
employees
won’t
be
moving
their
cars
during
the
normal
work
day
and
a
Level
1
charger
can
replenish
most
if
not
all
EV
baFeries
in
that
;me.
An
addi;onal
considera;on
is
that
if
each
EV
has
its
own
Level
1
unit,
employees
will
not
need
to
leave
their
work
place
to
move
their
car
during
the
day.
Level
2
chargers
are
roughly
twice
as
fast
as
Level
1
equipment,
but
that
extra
speed
may
be
unnecessary
during
a
typical
workday”...

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
• A
typical
U.S.
electricity
cost
is
$0.10/kWh.
• The
Nissan
Leaf
goes
about
80
miles
with
a
24
kWh
baFery.
• Therefore,
20
miles
uses
about
6
kWh.
• The
energy
cost
to
recoup
20
miles
is
about
60
cents:
6
kWh
x
$0.10/kWh
=
$0.60

It’s

10. TAKE ACTION
More functionality built in to an EVSE adds costs –
both up front and ongoing that are difficult to recover
Credit Card Readers and Network Connections
Adds more than $800 per unit, as well as fees and contracts
The single most common cause of EVSE outages
Integrated Electricity Metering
Energy metering can be easily accomplished outside of the EVSE
for a fraction of the cost
Expected vs. Actual electricity costs can be determined to reset employee rates if
needed
KEEP IT SIMPLE – Don’t scare away employers
ELECTRIC VEHICLES & EQUIPMENT

11. TAKE ACTION
It is less expensive to provide free EV charging with two L1 PowerPost EV
Chargers than to charge users for electricity with a networked EVSE.
PAYMENTS FOR CHARGING
ELECTRIC VEHICLES &
TCO in both cases do not include installation cost which varies greatly (site specific)
Based on rates from the leading supplier of networked EV charging stations

published
a

Ø The

found
that
92%
of
EV
owners
charge
a
minimum
of
one

per
day
and
82%
of
the

occurred
at

Only
18%
