Electric vehicles (EVs) are the future of transportation—cleaner, greener, and increasingly in demand. But for building owners, the challenge lies in creating the infrastructure to support them. As more residents make the switch to EVs, the need for reliable, convenient at-home charging grows. Offering EV charging stations in your building not only attracts eco-conscious tenants but also future-proofs your property for the growing shift towards electric mobility. However, installing this infrastructure requires thoughtful planning and overcoming certain hurdles.
Join us as we outline our expert approach to implementing EV charging solutions, explore the benefits for your building, and address the key challenges you may face when implementing your plan.
At Altogether, we work closely with body corporates to streamline the installation of charging stations in exclusive use areas. Our approach ensures that each installation meets the building’s specific needs–such as the available power supply and the typical usage patterns of residents–to deliver desired outcomes for body corporates and customers alike. We also make sure the solution is scalable and future-proof, ready to handle increased adoption as more people transition to electric vehicles.
We offer a complete, turnkey solution for delivering electric vehicle infrastructure tailored for residential, commercial, and mixed-use communities. As every building is unique, we perform in-depth scoping studies, addressing everything from electrical capacity to navigating the complexities of strata by-laws to cover all bases. Our team will assist with the entire process, including site assessments, ensuring your electrical system can handle the load, fire safety recommendations, and obtaining necessary approvals from strata or body corporate.
We provide guidance on creating or updating by-laws, handle applications, and oversee customer management processes to make the transition seamless. We also offer funding solutions to help you implement EV charging infrastructure without the need to raise special levies or dip into community funds upfront. Once the installation is complete, we set up billing systems and ensure ongoing support for repairs and maintenance, so your electric vehicle infrastructure remains efficient and future-ready.
Our team has successfully facilitated EV backbone infrastructure projects in the communities we manage, and we are committed to ensuring a seamless process for your property. As energy experts, we prioritise safety, reliability, and long-term dependability by carefully assessing demand and ensuring the infrastructure won't overload your electrical system. We work with top-tier EV charging providers to deliver high-quality stations that will serve your community's needs well into the future.
Offering electric vehicle infrastructure can promote cleaner transport, improve convenience for those who drive EVs, and address concerns or barriers that might stop drivers of fuel-powered vehicles from making the switch.
