I've been talking to our building team about how best to install chargers in our garage. At first, I was shooting for maybe 3-5 L2 chargers in a lot of ~100 spots. But, thinking about it some more, this won't scale. Once one EV pops up, more will. In fact, there's already 3 Volts. I can see it already...we'll be sending emails reminding everyone to not use charging unless you need it or move when you're done...not ideal.
After reading the airport parking thread it's got me thinking that it would be more cost effective to install 5-15 sockets in the garage. One at every parking stall may be a bit much, but maybe one in every three spots sounds reasonable. People shouldn't depend on these to get around, but could think of it as a boost in range. "If your EV can't make it to work and back home, you shouldn't count on this" is my motto.
Has anyone seen a great solution at their workplace? One note: My workplace is kind enough to say that whatever we do, it'll be free.
