Why an EV Charging Station Is Essential For Your Business

When it comes to marketing, you need to aim where your target market is going and not where it is at the moment. Consumers and their demographics are constantly moving targets, and you will miss your intended mark if you do not plan ahead.

For example, according to Bloomberg, electric vehicles (EVs) will account for two-thirds of all automotive sales in less than two decades. A good way to market to those buyers would be to install an electric vehicle charging station for your customers and even your employees. With more and more people buying electric vehicles, business owners may want to keep reading to learn more about why an EV charging station is essential for your business.

Convenience

As more people and workers use EVs, they will need a conveniently located electric vehicle charging station to charge their vehicles. Even if they have one at home, they might have more than one vehicle or need to recharge more thoroughly after commuting to work. This is a great perk that your company can boast about during the hiring or promotion process.

Cost Savings

Prospective employees could view a charging station as an added benefit that helps to offset the cost to go to and from work. When employees don't have to go out of their way to charge their car, it cuts down time on their commute. They also won't have to install a charging station in their homes, which would add to the electricity bill. A charging station also will provide clients and customers with an added incentive to stop at your business and take a look around while recharging.

Brand Reputation

A charging station also could help to develop goodwill toward your business and brand. Many locals would view it as a conscientious effort to protect the environment. Your employees and future employees also could view it as a generous gesture on your part. Take a look at your corporate budget for the next fiscal year and keep charging stations in mind.

There are many other benefits to investing in these charging stations. Do you want to learn more about installing EV charging stations for your business? Reach out to us at Northwind Solar today. Our representatives are ready to answer your questions and set you up with an installation today!

How Five Stevens Point Firefighters Spread the Solar Spark through the Firehouse Family

By northwindre.com • January 26, 2026

At Northwind Solar, we’ve seen firsthand how powerful a referral can be. When past customers share their story, what the process was like, how their system performs, and why they chose solar, it helps others feel confident taking the next step. That's exactly how five Stevens Point firefighters spread the solar spark! Over time, a close-knit group of retired firefighters turned decades of firehouse camaraderie into something bigger: a five-home solar ripple. Through trusted conversations, real-life experience, and shared values, one solar installation helped “spark” the next. Victor Kedrowski, Doug Christianson, Dennis Kitowski, Todd Becken, and Dennis Flanigan each chose to go solar with Northwind, and helped others feel confident doing the same through the kind of recommendation that only comes from people you truly trust.
