EV charging covers Level 2 (7-19 kW, 4-8 hour charge) and DC fast charging (50-350 kW, 20-45 minute charge) infrastructure integrated into property real estate. Post-2024 adoption surge (BloombergNEF projects US EV passenger fleet hits 25% by 2030), EV charging has become table-stakes amenity rather than premium differentiator across multifamily Class A, office (trophy + Class A), retail + shopping-center (Walmart Electrify America rollout, Target, Wawa, Sheetz, Buc-ee's), hotel + resort (charging during overnight stay), parking + parking-garage (revenue layered on stall), gas-station-adjacent (last-mile DCFC during fueling), fitness-center (charge during workout), condo-hoa (HOA-funded amenity for residents), medical-office + healthcare (patient amenity), and university / corporate campus. Performance is measured in stations per 100 stalls (residential / office), Level 2 vs DCFC mix, sessions per port per day (4-12 typical for break-even), kWh dispensed, host-site revenue share vs flat lease, and equipment uptime. NEVI federal funding (5B IIJA + IRA programs) is rapidly accelerating deployment 2024-2027.

Common Questions
Post-2024 EV charging is table-stakes in multifamily Class A, Class A office, shopping-center anchored by Walmart / Target / Wawa / Buc-ee's, hotel + resort, parking + parking-garage, fitness-center, condo-hoa luxury, medical-office, and campus. New construction increasingly required to be EV-ready. Older buildings retrofit during repositioning. EV charging is also its own property type — see /resources/glossary/ev-charging.
Level 2 (7-19 kW) takes 4-8 hours to charge an EV from empty — appropriate for workplace, multifamily, hotel overnight, residential. DC Fast Charging / DCFC (50-350 kW) charges 80% in 20-45 minutes — appropriate for highway corridors, retail co-located, gas-station-adjacent. The two have very different unit economics: L2 is amenity-priced or low-margin; DCFC is monetized at $0.30-0.60/kWh.
In multifamily, EV charging adoption is now demanded by Class A renters — its absence is a competitive disadvantage. In office, tenant RFPs increasingly include EV charging as required amenity. In retail, charging-station co-location drives 15-25% lift in dwell time + ancillary spend (Wawa data). NEVI grant funding covers 80% of project cost for highway corridor stations meeting design + access standards.
