The overall costs are not widely known since this is a relatively new technology. There are two significant expenditures: the cost of the unit and the cost of installation. One brand, the Tesla charging station, only costs around $500 per unit (not including installation), but it can only charge Tesla vehicles.<\/p><p>The installation cost will depend in part on the electrical installer who puts in your unit. At <a href=\"https:\/\/bateselectric.com\/\">Bates Electric<\/a>, we provide reasonable terms for getting your <a href=\"https:\/\/bateselectric.com\/why-your-commercial-property-needs-ev-charging-stations\/\">charging station up and running<\/a>.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><h2 id=\"h-typical-expenses-for-ev-charging-stations\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Typical Expenses for EV Charging Stations<\/strong><\/h2><p>As with any other product, the total expenses for EV Charging stations depend on several factors. However, it is possible to get a good ballpark figure of typical costs.<\/p><ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Lower-end equipment with simple installation requirements runs about $2,500.<\/li><li>The average cost of equipment and installation runs about $6,000.<\/li><li>Higher-end equipment runs between $10,000 to $13,000 for full installation.<\/li><\/ul><p>Premium equipment is likely to offer valuable features. These include attractive-looking hardware and a more remarkable ability to provide longer charges.\u00a0<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><h2 id=\"h-common-costs-associated-with-installation\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Common Costs Associated With Installation<\/strong><\/h2><p>A licensed electrician should handle the installation. The contractor will charge for labor and materials based on the going rate. A good rule of thumb is to expect to be charged between $70 to $100 an hour. Since facilities vary, installation in one location could take a couple of hours, while another area could require as much as 20 hours of installation. Materials such as conduit and wiring will also vary from site to site.<\/p><p>At Bates Electric, we have the expertise to install your EV charging station, and we will do so safely and efficiently. <a href=\"https:\/\/bateselectric.com\/contact-us\/\">Contact us<\/a> today for a free quote.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If your company is considering upgrading its infrastructure and playing a role in the electric vehicle revolution, you might wonder about the costs of installing an EV charging station.
