What affects the price
When you look at the cost of getting an EV charger installed at your home, a few main things change the bottom line. The biggest factor is how far your electrical panel is from where you want the charger; longer wiring runs mean more materials and labor. You also have to consider if your current panel has enough available amperage to handle the new circuit, or if you need an expensive service upgrade. Additionally, the type of charger you choose and the difficulty of running conduit through walls or attics play a role.
About this service
EVgo stations are part of a network of public fast chargers designed to top off your battery quickly while you run errands or grab a coffee. These are essential for long-distance travel, but they aren't meant for daily charging at home. If you rely on these for your primary power needs, you are likely spending more time waiting than necessary. We can help you transition to convenient home charging. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
