Guidelines for Moving Forward
The Blink Sales Representative and the dealer’s General Manager will first discuss the manufacturer’s or dealer’s requirements and objectives.
Blink Charging explains that some dealerships want to offer chargers to the general public, where drivers pay fees for use, while others only offer charging service to their own customers at no additional cost.
Many automakers also require chargers for their fleet, their own inventory, and for the vehicles they service for their customers.
After the first conversation, Blink performs an assessment of the dealership’s facilities to provide you with the most accurate quote possible.
“Our team will share with you best practices for electrifying your auto dealership (i.e., where you are most likely to need chargers and what type of EV charging stations they should be),” Blink says.
“Together, we will come up with a preliminary plan that fits your electrification needs. This, will include planning the number of chargers needed, where those chargers should be placed to reduce costs, local charging management to minimize installation costs, and the most convenient mounting options for your EV chargers,” highlights Blink.
