Installing Home EV Chargers Just Got Much Easier (And Cheaper)
like crazy, and that covers more than space heating. Air conditioning, hot water heating, and clothes drying are also in the mix.Siemens came into the picture last week when the two companies announced an agreement that provides for ConnectDER to supply Siemens with an exclusive on their new plug-in adapter for EV charging.
“The new device will enable electric vehicle owners to charge EVs by connecting chargers directly through the meter socket, a convenient and efficient location available on every home,”explained. “By bypassing a home’s electric service panel, the adapter will save an estimated 60 to 80 percent of the charger installation cost by avoiding the need for electric panel upgrades.”
“By allowing for a simple, 15-minute EV charger install, the technology eliminates the need for complex and prohibitively expensive installations,” they emphasized. According to Siemens and Connect DER, almost 50% of homes in the US would need an upgrade to install Level 2 EV charging systems, which they define as a 7–11kW device requiring 40–60 amps on a 240V line.
“This is a major roadblock for EV adoption, especially for low-and moderate-income homeowners,” they note., the expense of upgrading a home to accommodate Level 2 EV charging slows EV adoption trends. Even though the lifetime cost of ownership for electric vehicles is beginning to beat gasmobiles at their own game, bridging the upfront costs is a big challenge for many households.
