EV Charging

Level 2: 240v. Requires EV charger installation.

A 240-volt Level 2 charger is the fastest way to juice up an EV at home, adding four or more times as many miles per hour of charge. A Level 2 charging option charges your vehicle’s battery 10-20 miles of range per hour.

Please note: Your Level 2 charging station will need to be purchased by you ahead of your scheduled installation.

Electric vehicle charging is right at your fingertips. Contact Metro Electric today to learn more about the EV charging options that can help you get started on your EV journey!

IMPORTANT Note: All EV charger installations and site assessments should only be completed by qualified electricians who have been trained and are insured and bonded to complete electrical work.

Benefits of Electric Vehicle Charging at Home

Installing an EV charging station at your Southeast Michigan home offers many benefits, including:

  • Convenience – Eliminates the need to visit public charging stations, allowing you to charge your vehicle overnight while you sleep or at any time that fits your schedule.
  • Cost Efficiency – Home charging can be more cost-effective compared to public charging stations, especially if you take advantage of off-peak electricity rates.
  • Time Savings – With a home charging station, you save time by avoiding trips to public chargers and waiting for an available station.
  • Energy Management – You can monitor and manage your home’s energy consumption more effectively with an at-home charging station.
  • Increased Property Value – Installing a home EV charger can increase the value of your property, as more homebuyers are interested in energy-efficient and eco-friendly features.
  • Customizable Charging – You can choose the type of charging station that suits your vehicle and needs. Level 2 chargers, for instance, can fully charge your EV much faster than a standard 120-volt outlet.
  • Safety – Home charging reduces the risks associated with public chargers that might be faulty or not regularly maintained. It also ensures you have full control over the charging environment, keeping it safe and reliable.

Charging at home not only simplifies the EV experience but also makes it more cost-effective, eco-friendly, and convenient in the long run.
