Depending on the type EVs take an average time of 45 minutes to 1 hour to charge. By opting for a fast-charging system with an average charging time of, say, an hour, you can offer customers a quick-enough charging service while also encouraging them to stay a little longer and purchase that item they’ve been eyeing up for weeks.
Secondly, EV charging points can be a source of extra revenue in themselves.

Installing EV charging Stations will grow your brand’s visibility and draw in new clients as you will be visible on the Flash Charging Network EV Charging Station map.
You might be thinking: ‘But how do EVs relate to my business? I don’t know if any of my customers even own EVs!’ Whether you’re a local café or a nationwide hotel chain, it’s still worth trying to encourage EV owners to form part of your customer base. Research shows that EV owners tend to be higher-earning than the average population. They’re predominantly men with higher levels of education, in full-time employment, and around the ages of 30–45. Looking towards the future, such research also shows that electric vehicles may soon become popular among higher-income females and retirees/pensioners. Providing charging facilities may, therefore, give you a competitive advantage in terms of opening up new audiences or growing existing ones over the years.
