Launching EV charging and community solar Report Cards

Written by Albert Ching | 2022-06-29

šŸš€ Two New Ways to Identify Clean Energy Opportunity

Today we are excited to launch the addition of community solar and EV charging analyses to our Clean Energy Report Cards. Where available, Station A report cards now offer a building-specific estimate of the financial benefits of a community solar subscription and a grid-specific estimate of EV charging potential at your buildingā€™s location.

Station Aā€™s Community Solar report card predicts the financial return and amount of CO2 averted from a community solar subscription that offsets 100% of your buildingā€™s energy usage. We provide a detailed breakdown of the subscription term, annual savings, new annual bill, lifetime savings, and total CO2 averted.

Station Aā€™s EV charging report card calculates the number of Level 2 EV charging stations you can install at your building location without requiring expensive upgrades to your electrical service. We base this number on your buildingā€™s estimated energy usage and grid capacity.

Along with each new analysis type, weā€™ve populated related FAQs to help you better understand whether Community Solar or EV Charging are right for your building.

Navigating the full range of clean energy options can be overwhelming, Station Aā€™s Clean Energy Grades provide the most easily digestible rundown of which decarbonization pathways are available at your location. This is just another step in making it easy and efficient to take climate action and achieve your decarbonization goals.

ā˜€ļø How to benefit from Community Solar

Community solar offers the financial and environmental benefits of solar without the hassle of installing panels on a site. We recommend community solar if a buyer wants to move quickly towards their ESG goals while enjoying immediate savings on their bill. Tenants are often a perfect fit as are buyers who canā€™t or donā€™t want to do onsite solar for a variety of reasons e.g. bad roof. Community solar subscriptions can in many cases be combined with onsite solar installations if multiple meters are available on site. See if your site qualifies for community solar and let us match you with a market subscription.

āš” How to benefit from EV Charging

EV adoption across the world is rapidly on the rise and as a result, so is the demand for EV charging stations. A transition to electric vehicles powered by clean energy is crucial in the clean energy transition, but to ensure its scalability and accessibility, EV charging stations must be installed at an increasing rate. Having EV charging stations at your building may soon be a requirement and can serve as an amenity to your buildingā€™s tenants and employees.
