Orange Charger bills landlords based on energy usage instead of the number of outlets installed. So far, the company has installed about 2,000 units nationwide.
“You have no downside to install 50 outlets day one,” Johnson said. “We only charge when the device is used.”
But it also says the chargers cost $600 or $750, plus more for installation. Do they charge for both? Either way, I guess it’s the apartment owner’s choice, but god damn I am sick of everyone trying to get a subscription or on-going payment out of me.
It doesn’t mention who is going to foot the bill for EVSEs or installation. It’s a shitty article.
Presumably this is intended for new construction, as it’s much cheaper to install then. Same reason it’s required for all new construction in some areas of Europe.
Guaranteed the landlord provides a 1 month “promotional” rate and then jacks it up to extortionate pricing with little to no disclosure.
