Electric vehicles (EVs) are becoming increasingly popular among drivers, and as a result, hotels are looking for ways to cater to the needs of their customers who own electric vehicles. One of the most effective ways to do this is by installing EV charging stations in their parking lots. In this article, we will discuss the top 5 benefits of EV charging stations for hotels.

1. No overloading and better stability

One of the primary concerns when installing EV charging stations is the potential for overloading the building’s main circuit breaker. However, with advanced charging station systems, such as those manufactured by Zaptec, overloading is not a concern. The system adapts to the building’s electricity consumption and ensures that the circuit breaker is never overloaded. This results in better stability for hotel residents and smart distribution of available electricity for anyone wishing to charge their vehicle.

  1. The charging station system adapts to the building
    Advanced charging station systems can adapt to a building’s electricity consumption patterns. This means that if the building consumes a lot of electricity during certain times of the day, the charging system will take this into account and adjust charging speeds accordingly. This ensures that the building’s electricity needs are met while still providing a convenient charging experience for EV owners.
  1. Simple installation
    Installing an EV charging station can be a daunting task, but with companies that provide easy-to-install systems, it doesn’t have to be. With Zaptec, everything from the physical components to the cloud-based access has been carefully considered to ensure that installation can be performed as quickly and easily as possible. This saves time for both the electrician and the hotel owner, and the charging station can be up and running in no time.
  2. Minimal maintenance
    You should go for smart charging station systems that are connected to the internet via WiFi, 4G, or cable (PLC), which means that troubleshooting and upgrades can be performed remotely. This usually eliminates the need for an electrician to come out to housing associations and apartments. This ensures minimal maintenance, which saves time and money for the hotel owner.
  3. Expect a five-year guarantee
    Zaptec’s charging stations have been developed for Norwegian conditions and are equipped with high-quality components and advanced safety devices that can withstand high levels of current. This ensures that the charging station has an expected service life of more than 10 years. Additionally, a five-year guarantee is included.

In conclusion, hotels that install EV charging stations are doing the right thing for their customers. There is nothing better for an EV owner than the possibility to slow charge their car during their stay. With the top 5 benefits listed above, hotels can ensure that they provide a convenient and reliable charging experience for their guests.
