A premier downtown commercial office building needed to modernize its amenities to attract eco-conscious tenants. The management sought a scalable EV charging solution that could be integrated into their existing electrical infrastructure without requiring major service upgrades.
The 40-year-old parking structure had limited available electrical capacity. Additionally, the installation needed to be minimally invasive to avoid disrupting daily operations for current tenants. The client also required a networked solution to manage billing and track usage for sustainability reporting.
ATS implemented a load-managed EV charging system that allows multiple chargers to share a single circuit. This approach avoided the need for a costly utility transformer upgrade.
Our team performed detailed load calculations and installed:
10 networked Level 2 commercial chargers.
Smart load management controller to dynamic balance power.
Cloud-based software for user authentication and payment processing.
Custom conduit routing to maintain garage aesthetics.
The project was completed on time and under budget. The building immediately attracted two new corporate tenants who cited EV charging as a key requirement. The smart load management system has operated flawlessly, ensuring no peak demand charges were incurred.
