Business Objective
Metropolis, located in downtown Los Angeles, includes three towers of luxury living, a hotel and extensive retail space. Tower 2, EverCharge’s first project site, is 40 stories high with 525 condominiums.
FirstService Residential, who owns and operates Tower 2, wanted to provide
EV charging as a highly desirable amenity to current occupants and attract new home seekers.
They needed a solution that was easy and quick to install, delivered the most
cost-efficient implementation using their existing infrastructure and created the least amount of disruption for residents.
Solution
FirstService Residential selected EverCharge, eliminating suppliers like ChargePoint.
EverCharge provided Metropolis with a turnkey solution, installing 16 Level 2 (L2) charging stations in the Tower 2 parking garage.
Outcome
Thanks to EverCharge’s SmartPower technology and mesh network connectivity, Metropolis was able to use their existing electrical infrastructure with only a minimal upgrade, saving them over $100,000 in infrastructure upgrades alone.
Fueled by the success of Tower 2, Metropolis expanded its electrification project with EverCharge to Tower 3 shortly afterward, giving more residents the convenience of at-home charging.
