Electric Vehicle Charging Points

Opportunity for Landlords

What is the opportunity?

 Electric vehicle (EV) sale increases are an irresistible trend. There are already 200,000 on UK roads and there will be 200 types of electric vehicle on sale in 2025. Volvo has already announced it will cease building internal combustion engine-only cars whilst the UK government will stop sales of petrol or diesel cars in 2035.

  • Gain new customers

EV car owners use apps to navigate their way to EV charging stations so once Edifice enters you into these apps you will gain new customers who tend to be more wealthy  and will bring you new revenues

 

  •  Make your property more attractive

Consumers are positively influenced by the presence of EV chargers as it shows the property owner/ operator is forward-thinking and environmentally-focussed

  • Protect your neighbourhood

40,000 people died in the UK alone in 2017 due to air pollution. Reducing pollution at your property by attracting EV’s is the right thing to do for air quality.

  • Gain local prestige

Councils are positively inclined towards properties with EV chargers and so are your customers plus this adds to your Corporate Social Responsibility credentials
