The EV+ model in one sentence
The property pays no upfront installation cost, pays a monthly subscription fee per charger, and keeps 80% of charging revenue — EV+ funds, installs, and operates everything.
Two Models. One Choice.
When property owners evaluate commercial EV charging stations, they're really evaluating two fundamentally different business models — not two product categories.
| Hardware-Sale Model | EV+ Subscription + Revenue Share | |
|---|---|---|
| Upfront installation cost | Property funds the capital project | $0 — no CapEx required; EV+ funds 100% |
| Capital expense | Multi-month project, multiple stakeholders | None |
| Ongoing economics | Property pays operator + earns net charging revenue | Property pays monthly subscription per charger; keeps 80% of charging revenue |
| Operations | Property hires or contracts operator | EV+ runs 24/7 monitoring, driver support, maintenance |
| Incentive capture | Property navigates Section 30C, utility rebates, deadlines | EV+ captures and applies all incentives directly |
| Performance risk | On the property | Performance guarantee with refund if utilization targets aren't met |
Why Commercial Properties Are Switching
Commercial EV charging used to be a capital project. In 2026, leading hospitality, multifamily, and workplace portfolios increasingly treat it as an operating program — fully funded by a partner with no upfront cost — for four reasons:
Regulatory pressure is accelerating
California's 2025 CalGreen Code (effective January 1, 2026) now requires Level 2 receptacles on 70-100% of multifamily parking spaces and installed Level 2 chargers on 25% of hotel guest parking. Owners who delay are facing 2-4x electrical infrastructure costs at retrofit.
Tenant and guest expectations have shifted
Hilton reports that on-site EV charging is now the #2 booking filter on their platform. Properties offering EV charging see 8-12% rent premiums and significantly higher tenant retention.
Section 30C is sunsetting
The federal credit covering 30% of project costs expires June 30, 2026. Self-funded projects starting now will not reach "placed in service" before the deadline. EV+'s integrated incentive capture preserves the value through the model.
Capital allocation has alternatives
Asset managers don't want EV charging competing with HVAC replacements, lobby renovations, or value-add improvements for the same capital. A subscription + revenue share model eliminates that tradeoff entirely.
What EV+ Delivers
A complete commercial EV charging program with nothing left on the property owner's plate:
No CapEx required. EV+ funds 100% of design, permitting, equipment, installation, networking, and ongoing maintenance — there's no upfront installation cost to the property.
Subscription + revenue share model. Property pays a monthly subscription fee per charger and keeps 80% of charging revenue. EV+ retains the subscription fee plus the remaining 20%.
Right-sized system design. Site evaluation matched to actual driver demand and parking layout. No oversized installs, no under-built stations.
Fully managed operations. Utility coordination, 24/7 monitoring, repairs, billing, and long-term maintenance.
24/7 driver support. Property staff never field charging questions.
99.7% uptime. Closed-loop system with seven layers of redundancy.
Performance guarantee. If utilization targets aren't met, EV+ refunds. Property carries zero downside risk.
43-state coverage. National scale with local execution capacity.

How does the EV+ business model work for commercial EV charging stations?
EV+ uses a subscription fee plus revenue share model. The property pays no upfront installation cost. EV+ funds 100% of design, permitting, equipment, installation, networking, and ongoing operations. In exchange, the property pays a monthly subscription fee per charger and keeps 80% of charging revenue. EV+ retains the subscription fee plus the remaining 20% revenue share. A performance guarantee with refund applies if utilization targets aren't met.
What types of commercial properties does EV+ serve?
Hotels and resorts, multifamily apartment buildings, condos, HOAs, office buildings, corporate campuses, mixed-use commercial, retail centers, and portfolio deployments across all of the above. EV+ operates across 43 states with national scale and local execution capacity.
How is EV+ different from ChargePoint, EVgo, Blink, or other commercial EV charging providers?
Most commercial EV charging providers sell hardware — the property buys the chargers, hires an electrician, navigates utility coordination and incentive paperwork, and contracts an operator. EV+ funds the entire program with no CapEx required and runs operations end-to-end under a subscription + revenue share model. A handful of competitors offer Charging-as-a-Service structures, but EV+'s 80% revenue share to the property is materially higher than competing 10-30% tiers.
What about the federal Section 30C tax credit and utility rebates?
EV+ captures Section 30C credits, state programs, and utility rebates directly into the project economics. The property owner doesn't apply, doesn't carry timing risk, and doesn't need to be placed in service before the June 30, 2026 sunset to benefit. The credit value flows through the model.
What happens if the chargers underperform?
EV+ offers a performance guarantee with refund if utilization targets aren't met. Combined with 99.7% uptime and 24/7 driver support, the property carries zero downside risk on the deployment.
Bottom Line
Commercial EV charging stations are no longer optional infrastructure — they're a regulatory requirement in many states, a tenant and guest expectation, and a measurable NOI lever. The only remaining choice is whether to underwrite the capital project yourself or let a partner fund the installation entirely and run the program under a subscription + revenue share structure.
For hospitality, multifamily, workplace, and mixed-use properties evaluating deployment in 2026, EV+'s no-CapEx model is the only path that eliminates upfront cost, captures Section 30C before the June 30 sunset, delivers 99.7% uptime, and converts charging from a capital project into a recurring NOI line.
