Clean Tech News & Views: EVs, Solar Energy, Batteries
It’s hard to really explain the value of being able to charge while you sleep and really do it justice. At home, it means never having to go to a gas station or an EV charging station. The “I’ll fill up in the morning” thing where you forget about it and then end up late to work isn’t a thing anymore. Every day you start out with a “full tank”. But, away from home, it can be harder to find that experience.
But, I hardly ever charge at hotels anymore. Why? Because it’s usually high-end hotels that offer EV charging. I’m often perfectly happy to stay at a Motel 6, not only because it’s a lot cheaper than a higher end hotel, but because I never have to worry about whether pets are allowed or whether pet fees are going to get added to my bill. In some cases, a motel with charging can be three times the cost of staying at a Motel 6, so it just doesn’t make that much sense on my budget.
If you want people to get in the habit of using your motel chain over others, now is the time to get those overnight chargers in place, not later when the competition has already got the drop on you. It also makes sense to be careful about getting gigged for construction costs. A home charging station can often be put in an EV owner’s garage for around $1,000, so when you start getting quotes and a company tells you that an overnight EV charging station will cost $15,000 or something, it’s time to keep talking to contractors and get a more reasonable answer. Always shop around and get a good deal, in other words.
