COMMERCIAL EV CHARGING MELBOURNE
Commercial EV Charging Installation
EV charging solutions for workplaces, apartment buildings, car parks, and commercial properties. From single charger installations to multi-bay deployments across Melbourne.
Commercial EV Charging Solutions
Commercial EV charging is more complex than residential. It involves higher power demands, load management across multiple chargers, metering for cost recovery, body corporate or building management coordination, and often requires three-phase power infrastructure. We handle all of this.
Workplace Charging
Staff and fleet charging for offices, warehouses, and commercial premises. We design systems that balance charger availability with building electrical capacity, install load management to prevent overloading, and set up metering so costs can be allocated or recovered.
Apartment and Strata Buildings
Installing EV charging in apartment car parks requires careful planning around shared electrical infrastructure. We assess building capacity, prepare body corporate proposals with technical documentation, install individually metered chargers, and manage the switchboard upgrades that are often needed.
Public and Customer-Facing Charging
Hotels, shopping centres, gyms, and hospitality venues are adding EV chargers as a customer amenity. We install networked chargers with payment capability, configure access controls, and ensure the infrastructure supports the expected usage pattern.
Fleet and Depot Charging
Businesses transitioning vehicle fleets to electric need charging infrastructure at depots and parking facilities. We design multi-charger installations with load balancing, scheduled charging capability, and the electrical capacity planning to support growing fleet requirements.
From a single workplace charger to a multi-bay commercial deployment, we design and install EV charging infrastructure that works within your building’s capacity and your budget.
How We Approach Commercial EV Projects
Site Assessment
We assess your existing electrical capacity, switchboard condition, cable runs, and available power. This determines what can be installed now and what infrastructure upgrades (if any) are needed. We use power logging to understand your building’s actual demand profile.
Load Management
Multi-charger installations need intelligent load management to prevent overloading the building’s supply. We configure dynamic load balancing that distributes available power across active chargers, maximising the number of vehicles that can charge simultaneously.
Metering and Cost Recovery
For shared or commercial environments, individual metering allows costs to be allocated per user. We install sub-metering solutions that track usage by charger, integrate with billing platforms, and provide the data building managers need.

The Commercial EV Charging Landscape
EV adoption in Australia is accelerating, and businesses are responding. Workplace charging is becoming a standard employee amenity. Apartment body corporates are fielding increasing requests from residents. Retail and hospitality venues are using charging as a drawcard for customers who need somewhere to park while they charge.
The commercial context introduces considerations that residential installations do not face. Building supply capacity, load management across multiple simultaneous chargers, metering and billing, compliance with building standards, and body corporate governance all need to be addressed.
We bring the electrical infrastructure expertise to handle these complexities. From the initial capacity assessment through to commissioning and handover, we manage the entire process and ensure the installation is safe, compliant, and fit for purpose.
Commercial EV Charging FAQs
How many EV chargers can my building support?
This depends on your existing electrical supply capacity and current demand. We assess your building’s available power, often using power logging to understand actual usage patterns, and determine how many chargers can be installed with or without infrastructure upgrades.
Do I need a switchboard upgrade for commercial EV charging?
Often yes, especially for multi-charger installations. We assess your existing switchboard capacity and recommend upgrades where needed. In some cases, dynamic load management can defer the need for immediate upgrades.
Can individual users be billed for their charging?
Yes. We install networked chargers with individual metering and payment capability. This allows building managers or employers to track usage per charger and recover costs per user or department.
Can you prepare a body corporate proposal for EV charging?
Yes. We provide technical assessments and documentation that body corporate committees need to make informed decisions, including capacity analysis, cost estimates, proposed layouts, and metering options.
What brands of commercial EV chargers do you install?
We are brand-agnostic and recommend chargers based on your requirements. We install chargers from leading manufacturers that offer the features, reliability, and network connectivity your project needs.
