The electric vehicle (EV) sector is anticipated to grow by 41 percent by the year 2027, and its widespread adoption is reliant on the availability of robust EV charging (EVc) infrastructure. Businesses that offer reliable EVc infrastructure at their facilities stand to gain numerous benefits, including attracting more customers, enhancing their brand image and building a loyal clientele.
BluSkyEV is laying the groundwork for an EV-first tomorrow by providing reliable and convenient EVc terminal charging machines to retailers at no outof- pocket costs.
BluSkyEV offers level two and three charging models through its innovative top-it-off (TIO™) terminals that are easy to install and use. Individuals can conveniently recharge their vehicles while performing daily activities like working out, shopping or running errands.
The terminals are designed with features that provide convenience and reduce risks. For example, its retractable cabling system eliminates loose cables around the unit, mitigating possible mishaps. Unlike traditional EV charging stations that require users to download proprietary apps for charging and payment, BluSkyEV offers a hassle-free, cashless credit card payment system. It makes charging as simple as swiping a card and initiating the machine.
Specializing in engineering EVc stations for nearly two decades, BluSkyEV has closely witnessed the market’s evolution. Its innovative business model, similar to a vending machine company, is formulated to address retailers’ apprehension about investing in EVc.
“We educate retailers on the latest EVc technology, enabling them to provide their customers with easy access to charging stations while boosting their bottom line,” says Craig Lobel, founder and co-owner.
BluSkyEV takes responsibility for selecting, engineering, permitting, installing and maintaining the terminals at no cost to the retailer. It shares a part of the revenue with them for allocating their parking spaces to install TIO™ terminals. Retailers are also provided with materials like window stickers and machine graphics, which can be customized to promote their business.
To ensure compatibility with emerging EVc technologies, BluSkyEV works with multiple groups focused on manufacturing, software and R&D components for its terminals. It conducts on-site evaluations upon receiving an inquiry and assesses various factors, such as reliable grid connection. After a thorough assessment, the company creates a rough draft of the layout and obtains permits from the local authorities. A site engineer is assigned to each project to oversee the operation, who works with local contractors to construct the charging stations.
BluSkyEV goes a step further by testing and commissioning the charging stations and providing a comprehensive overview of the machine's operation. A separate utility meter is deployed to monitor and manage bills. It familiarizes clients with troubleshooting techniques, enabling them to answer any questions their customers may have. 24/7 technical support is also provided. After installation, it handles all ongoing maintenance and insurance and goes out of its way to ensure utmost customer satisfaction.
In one instance, BluSkyEV demonstrated its expertise by executing an EVc installation project for a resort at Priest Lake, Idaho, that required compliance with the construction guidelines of the U.S. Forest Service. The company conducted a thorough site analysis and determined the ideal placement of the charging stations. After approval, the charging stations were installed at the resort, enabling the promotion of EVc as a value-added service to customers.
A catalyst for change, BluSkyEV aims to create a cleaner and more sustainable future for generations to come. It takes the guesswork and planning time out of EVc installation and allows individuals to confidently embrace the all-electric future.
