EV Charging for Multifamily Properties
EV charging for multifamily properties and apartment buildings, with energy-managed EV chargers, 24/7 support, and hardware built in Portland, Oregon.
As EV ownership grows among your residents, every new driver adds to the same shared building. We design, install, support, and maintain EV charging for multifamily buildings, with chargers that are energy managed to ensure that the load from the EV charging in your building does not exceed the available power. It’s charging residents can count on, built around the building you already have.
How Multifamily EV Charging Works in a Shared Building
Single-family homeowners can add a charger in their own garage. Multifamily buildings work differently than single-family homes. In apartment buildings, apartment complexes, condos run by homeowner associations, and other multifamily housing, every charger connects to one electrical system that the whole building shares. That changes the first step for property managers and multifamily property owners. The question isn’t only where the chargers go. It’s how much charging the building can support.
One Building, One Electrical System
Multifamily residents don’t each get their own power supply for charging. As resident demand grows, a building can’t keep adding EV charging stations without paying attention to its electrical capacity.
Our chargers are energy managed to ensure that the load from the EV charging in your building does not exceed the available power. That’s the load management a shared building needs, so more EV drivers can plug in without charging outgrowing the building.
Planning the Right Number of Chargers
There’s no right number of chargers that fits every multifamily residence. It depends on your parking spaces, your residents, and your electrical infrastructure.
That’s why we start with a site assessment, so the final design reflects how residents actually park and what your building can support.
For many multifamily communities, a good thing to plan for is room to add stations later as EV adoption grows among residents.
Charging Residents Can Count On
For residents without a garage of their own, availability of EV chargers on-property can be a deciding factor in where they choose to live. When the chargers at home work, residents with electric cars don’t have to rely on public EV charging down the street.
Our 24/7 customer service hotline and support teams are there for drivers whenever they need help, so resident satisfaction doesn’t depend on someone in the leasing office troubleshooting a charger.

Your Path to EV Charging
at Your Multifamily Property
Site Assessment
The first step is a site assessment of your property. We look at your parking lots or garage, how residents use them, and your existing electrical infrastructure, so we understand what your building has to work with before anything is designed.
Charging Design
We plan charger placement around your parking and your residents, and design energy-managed charging that keeps the load within your building’s available power. The final design shows where stations go now and where more can go later.
EV Charger Installation
Our team handles the EV charger installation, from station installation to testing. We keep the installation process as low impact for residents as we can, and we make sure your property team knows how the stations work before handover. The EVSE installation, putting the electric vehicle supply equipment in place, is the visible part, but it’s only one stage of the work.
Ongoing Support and Maintenance
After installation, we support and maintain your charging with 24/7 monitoring and on-site maintenance and repair. As more residents choose the right EV for them and start charging at home, we help you add stations to the same energy-managed setup.
