Service department

Lifts, compressors, paint booths and welders create sharp peaks.

High demand & peaks

DC fast chargers can double a dealership’s demand charge if unmanaged.

Cost pressure

Energy per vehicle sold and serviced is rising with rates and charger loads.

Regulatory compliance

Local energy codes, OEM sustainability scorecards and EV-readiness standards call for documented performance.

FAQ

Questions from auto dealerships operators

Can we add DC fast chargers without a new utility service?

Often yes. Load management through ecoSEMS and a buffering battery let most dealerships install OEM-required chargers within the existing service, avoiding a costly upgrade and a demand-charge jump.
