Modern amenities for high-value tenants

For Security Properties, EV Charging isn’t a luxury — it’s a necessity. With the rapid adoption of electric vehicles in some of their key markets, they were looking for a way to quickly and effectively offer an EV Charging solution that provided a great experience for tenants, while helping them work towards their broader businesses and sustainability goals. 

Challenges Security Properties was facing:

  • Finding the best charger & capabilities that best aligned with the tenant experience
  • Strategizing a revenue model that best made sense for their tenants and business goals
  • Understanding the electrical infrastructure needed for power and charger placement
  • Learning how to obtain any incentive funding that may be available for the project
  • Ensuring any regional permitting requirements were in place before construction
  • Deploying a durable solution that could hold up to the elements

About the process

After a first attempt at installing chargers in-house (and a number of speedbumps along the way) Security Properties determined they would benefit from expert guidance — leading to their decision to work with PEC. Our team worked with them closely to help them to understand their top objectives, iron out a revenue model, learn the existing site infrastructure, and craft a charging solution that best met their needs.

How PEC helped

  • Designed a solution that worked seamless for tenants
  • Helped to develop a business model that most effectively generated revenue without compromising tenant experience
  • Provided multiple solution options that broke down infrastructure needs, cost estimates, projected revenue, future cashflow, and ROI
  • Gathered any available incentives through SP’s or government
  • Worked directly with local municipality to handle any permitting requirements
  • Created the power infrastructure needed for current and any future charging needs
  • Managed and trained on charger installation and commissioning
  • Continue to provide lifelong support for any potential warranty claims, issues, or future support needs
