Case Study: EV Charger Installation at a Local Dental Clinic
Recently, we installed a Rolec robust dual-socket SecuriCharge unit at a dental clinic in Peterborough. Due to the high energy demand in the building, we integrated an Enegic load monitoring device, ensuring a stable power supply while allowing for future charger expansion.
The business owner now enjoys the benefit of charging company vehicles while also offering paid charging options for visitors, generating additional revenue. Plus, by taking advantage of the Workplace Charging Scheme (WCS) grant, the installation costs were significantly reduced.
Case Study: Future-Proofing a Business with EV Charging
Our team completed another commercial EV charger installation for a business looking to support its new electric fleet. The company directors required a dedicated EV charger for their vehicles while also ensuring the infrastructure allowed for future expansion.
To achieve this, we:
- Installed a new fuse board with a planned power shutdown to integrate the charger seamlessly.
- Integrated an Enegic load monitoring device to dynamically manage power usage and prevent exceeding the building’s supply capacity.
- Installed a Rolec SecuriCharge 22kW unit, providing reliable and efficient charging for business needs.
