Why Install EV Chargers?
Installing EV chargers at your commercial property—or even at home—can attract EV-driving customers, increase tenant satisfaction, boost property value, and demonstrate your commitment to sustainability. Indiana is investing heavily in EV infrastructure (with nearly $100 million for charging networks statewide (Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Network – INDOT – IN.gov)), and businesses and homeowners in the Indianapolis area are seizing the opportunity to lead the charge. Whether you manage an apartment complex in Broad Ripple, operate a shopping center in Greenwood, run a corporate campus in Fishers, or own a home in the suburbs, we tailor our services to your specific context:
- Workplaces & Offices: Provide convenient charging for employees and visitors, encouraging longer dwell times and supporting green commuting initiatives.
- Retail & Hospitality: Install EV charging stations in your parking lot or garage to draw in EV drivers and differentiate your business. Shoppers can charge up while they spend time (and money) at your establishment.
- Apartment & Condo Complexes: Make your property more attractive to tenants by offering EV charging amenities. We can install stations in shared parking areas or dedicated spots, with smart billing systems to manage usage by residents.
- Fleet Operations: Electrifying your fleet of company cars, delivery vehicles, or service trucks? We design fleet charging solutions with multiple stations, optimized scheduling, and load management to charge vehicles efficiently without overloading your electrical supply.
- Municipal & Public Parking: Partner with us to install public charging stations in city lots, libraries, parks, or garages. We ensure ADA compliance and integration with network providers so the public can easily find and use your chargers.
- Residential & Homeowners: Bring EV charging convenience to your driveway or garage. We install safe, code-compliant Level 2 home chargers and help you choose the right system for your vehicle, usage patterns, and electrical panel capacity.
No matter the industry or home type, if you have vehicles or guests that could benefit from EV charging, Grounded Solutions will create a customized plan that aligns with your goals and budget.
Customized, Scalable EV Charging Solutions
One size does not fit all when it comes to EV charging. Our team works closely with you to determine the right number and type of chargers, optimal locations, and electrical capacity required—whether at a commercial site or private residence. Key considerations we address include:
- Charging Level and Speed: For most commercial settings and residential use, Level 2 charging stations are ideal – they provide a reasonably fast charge (typically 20–25 miles of range per hour) and can be installed at a relatively low cost per unit. In high-traffic or highway-adjacent commercial locations, you might consider DC Fast Chargers to serve drivers needing a quick top-up. We help you understand the pros, cons, and costs of Level 2 vs. DC fast charging so you can make an informed decision. For homeowners, we assess your daily driving habits and electrical panel capacity to recommend the best home charging option.
- Number of Stations & Scalability: Maybe your business needs two charging ports today but ten next year—or as a homeowner, you’re planning to add a second EV down the road. Our designs allow for scalable expansion, with electrical infrastructure sized to add more stations later. For residential installs, we ensure conduit and panel capacity are future-ready to avoid costly rework. In both cases, dual-port chargers can efficiently serve multiple vehicles.
- Site Layout and User Convenience: We’ll identify the best parking spots for EV chargers—whether it’s in a commercial lot or your home garage—balancing electrical efficiency with driver convenience and safety. In residential installations, we consider garage wall placement, outdoor weatherproofing, and cable reach. In commercial settings, we assess visibility, signage, and ADA compliance to ensure easy access for all users.
- Electrical Load Management: A critical aspect of EV charging is managing electrical load to prevent overloads and reduce demand charges. Grounded Solutions uses smart charging technology and can set up load management systems that distribute available power among multiple stations. For homeowners, we ensure that the charger works within your home’s panel limits, often without the need for a costly service upgrade. For businesses, we implement systems that protect your infrastructure and your utility bill.
- Networked Charging & Payment Systems: For public-facing or tenant-use chargers, you may want the ability to monitor usage, set pricing, and control access. We install networked charging stations with management software to track energy usage and bill users via RFID card, app, or credit card. At home, we can install Wi-Fi–connected smart chargers that let you monitor charging, set schedules to avoid peak rates, and even receive app notifications—perfect for households wanting more control and efficiency.
Turnkey Installation – From Permitting to Power-Up
Implementing EV chargers—whether in a commercial setting or at home—can seem daunting, but with Grounded Solutions it doesn’t have to be. We provide turnkey installation services, managing every phase of the project:
- Consultation & Planning: We begin with a thorough consultation to understand your goals and site specifics. For businesses, our experts conduct a site walk-through to assess electrical panels, transformer capacity, parking layout, and any construction needs (like trenching or mounting equipment). For homeowners, we assess your existing electrical panel, garage layout, and daily charging needs. We then present you with a detailed plan and quote for the project, including equipment specs and any civil work required.
- Utility Coordination: For larger commercial installations, we coordinate with the local utility (such as AES Indiana) early in the process. We’ll handle applications for any necessary service upgrades or new electrical service drops. For residential projects requiring panel upgrades or new meters, we manage those interactions with your utility as well. If your project qualifies for utility incentives or special EV charging programs, we’ll help you navigate those too. Utilities in Indiana are studying managed charging as EV adoption grows (MPH: State Launches Indiana Vehicle Fuel Dashboard – IN.gov), and we ensure our designs align with their guidelines for grid reliability.
- Permitting & Compliance: Commercial EV charger installations must comply with local building codes, electrical codes, and often ADA requirements (for public access). Our team will prepare and submit all required permit applications to the city or county, including electrical permits and any zoning or planning approvals. For residential installs, we ensure compliance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and local permitting requirements. We are well-versed in code compliance and permitting – from ensuring proper clearances and signage to meeting specific ordinances Indianapolis and nearby cities might have. We also follow all NEC and ADA standards where applicable (e.g., mounting height, reach ranges, and accessible pathways). You can trust that our work will pass inspection and meet every compliance checklist (Alternative Fuels Data Center: Procurement and Installation for Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure) (Alternative Fuels Data Center: Procurement and Installation for Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure).
- Installation & Construction: Once permits are in hand, our licensed electricians and technicians get to work. For commercial jobs, this often involves some construction work: trenching, setting concrete pads or mounting poles, and upgrading panels or transformers. We schedule work to minimize disruption to your business. For residential clients, installations typically include wall mounting the unit in a garage or on an exterior wall, running conduit to the panel, and configuring breakers. Our crew handles all wiring, panel work, and hardware integration with professionalism and care. Every installation is performed per manufacturer specs and rigorously tested.
- Integration & Configuration: If your chargers are networked or part of a smart system, we assist with setup and configuration. For businesses, this means connecting the stations to your network, testing payment systems, and enabling access controls. For homeowners, we configure your smart charger app for real-time monitoring, scheduled charging, and energy usage tracking. We ensure your system is connected, functional, and tailored to your needs—commercial or residential.
- Inspection & Commissioning: Grounded Solutions coordinates all required inspections with local authorities. We ensure electrical inspections are passed and documentation is filed so your station can be energized. Once approved, we commission the charger(s)—running final tests under real load to verify power delivery and system functionality. Whether it’s a single home unit or a commercial hub, we ensure everything works as expected and provide a commissioning report. We don’t consider the job complete until you’re 100% satisfied.
Compliance, Safety, and Quality Assurance
When you partner with Grounded Solutions, you can be confident that safety and quality underpin everything we do. Whether for a large commercial property or your own home garage, electrical projects require diligence and expertise – qualities our team has developed over 20+ years serving Indianapolis as licensed electrical contractors. Here’s how we ensure your EV charging project is done right:
- Licensed and Insured Team: All work is performed by our licensed electricians and technicians who are trained in EV infrastructure. We carry full liability insurance specific to both commercial and residential electrical contracting, so you are protected. Safety protocols are strictly followed on every job site—whether it’s a retail center or a private home—and our crew is OSHA-compliant.
- Code Adherence: We build your charging installation to satisfy National Electrical Code (NEC) requirements, local amendments, and manufacturer specifications. From proper wire sizing and circuit protection to signage and safety equipment, nothing is overlooked. For example, NEC Article 625 covers EV Supply Equipment – and we ensure every detail (like GFCI protection, connector types, and circuit sizing) is compliant. As a result, inspections—commercial or residential—are typically a formality because we do things by the book.
- ADA and Accessibility: If your chargers will be used by the public or tenants, we ensure the design meets ADA guidelines. This may involve installing at least one charger at an accessible parking space, mounting the unit at the correct height, and providing adequate pathway clearance. For homeowners, this translates to thoughtful placement and ergonomic accessibility for all household members. Compliance in this area not only avoids legal issues but expands who can use your charging stations.
- High-Quality Hardware: We recommend and install commercial-grade charging stations from reputable manufacturers—even for residential use when desired. These units are built to withstand heavy usage and Indiana weather—from summer heat to winter snow. Many come with robust warranties (5 years or more). We avoid off-brand or untested equipment, so you won’t face frequent malfunctions. Our team tests each unit before and after installation. Quality assurance is a must: every connector, cable, and software setting is verified for proper operation.
- Future-Proofing: EV technology is evolving. Whenever possible, we future-proof your installation. That might mean laying extra conduit for future expansion, choosing chargers that support firmware updates or new payment systems, or designing your home’s or business’s electrical capacity to handle faster charging in the future. Whether you’re adding chargers to a company fleet lot or planning for a second EV at home, our forward-thinking approach saves you money by extending the useful life of your investment.
