  • Day 1 | May 14, 2025


  • 11:20am  - 12:05pm
    For many EV drivers, charging behaviour happens in the places they already spend time. A commuter without home charging tops up at work, a rideshare driver plugs in at a shopping center over lunch, and a family on a road trip wakes up to a full battery after an overnight hotel stay – no extra stops required. The convenience of these charging sites is essential to making EV and PHEV ownership practical for more people. But beyond the perk for drivers, opportunity charging is also an opportunity for property owners. This session explores how businesses can use charging to attract high-value customers, generate recurring revenue, and future-proof their properties. We'll also break down cost-effective deployment strategies so you can maximize ROI when plugging in your parking lot.
