EV Charging Operations and Maintenance

Once your EV Charging installation is complete the real fun can begin!  An EV Charging installation can range from $20,000 for a single dual port Level 2 to over $500,000 for a NEVI compliant DCFC installation, so a robust operations and maintenance (O&M) program is extremely important.

Operations and maintenance of EV charging infrastructure is essential for ensuring that charging stations are functioning properly, safely, and efficiently. It includes a range of activities, such as regular inspections and cleaning, testing, and repairs.  Preventative maintenance of EV charging stations is necessary to extend lifespan and reduce downtime that could limit revenue and result in a frustrating EV driver user experience.

User management software requires monitoring and pricing analysis, as well as software updates and upgrades.  Monitoring and data collection is an important aspect of operations and maintenance, as it helps to identify usage patterns, troubleshoot issues, and optimize the performance of the charging stations. This information can also be used to plan for future expansion and to make data-driven decisions about the deployment of EV charging infrastructure.

These activities are needed to ensure that the charging stations are providing reliable, consistent, and safe service to EV drivers.
