I work for a regional arts centre and have proposed the installation of an EV charger to the management. They’ve asked me to come back with a proposal and I’m just wondering if anyone can recommend a charger that will meet our needs.

Ideally, we want a destination charger with a contactless payment facility. It will be in our car park and available to staff and the general public. We would hope to make some level of income from it which is why the contactless payment element is important.

Additionally, are there any grants available to organisations to help cover some of the initial costs?

    That is extremely unlikely. Consider how much power could pass through this charger and then calculate what you could possibly earn…That’s a couple dollars per week. You’ll be lucky if that covers maintenance/wear&tear.
