Marinas can benefit from charging points A
s the electric vehicle (EV) industry begins to accelerate, there is now a growing demand for
charging points amongst current and prospective EV drivers. Many motorists that have made the transition to an EV plan their travel around whether the destination offers readily available charging facilities. Whilst EV drivers usually know if their car can complete a journey, this is now the perfect time to incorporate EV charging points as part of marina infrastructure. This year, Rolec has launched
EV
Charge.Online – a back office system that enables EV charging convenience for both EV drivers and marina operators. EV Charge. Online’s innovative features provide marina operators with the capability to manage and monitor charging behaviour, as well as set customisable tariffs for both visitors and employees, thus creating an additional revenue stream. Offering charging facilities to
be on their minds. Deploying EV charging points at marinas is an effective means of securing customer loyalty and encouraging return visits. Knowing that EV charging is available will provide drivers with peace of mind by ensuring that they are able to recharge without fear of failing to complete their journey home. This advantage will help to generate further annual footfall as returning visitors will steer towards marinas that offer charging points as opposed to those where charging facilities have yet to be installed. Whilst generating additional
EV drivers is without doubt becoming common practice amongst various leisure destinations and, as a result, such organisations are reaping the benefits from gaining further income. The new back office system provides
a complete answer to all marinas seeking to widen their services to
visitors; it is an easy to use and simple to manage solution that enables great scope for facilitating significant revenue. With an increasing number of drivers opting for an EV as their next car purchase, being able to recharge at various locations will undoubtedly
