Electric Vehicle Charging Stations

Womack Electric Supply is pleased to offer SemaConnect electric vehicle charging station solutions.  SemaConnect is the leading provider of electric vehicle amenities to the North American commercial, residential property, and fleet market.

Mass-market electric vehicles have arrived!  It’s estimated that there are 2+ million electric vehicles in the US.  According to EVAdoption, there will be 100+ electric vehicle models on the market by 2025. Fueling the electric vehicle market are it’s built in cost savings, performance, and sustainability features and benefits. Growing as rapidly, alongside the electric vehicle market, is the electric vehicle charging station industry.  

Electric vehicle charging stations are the newest and most visible green building amenity, capable of continuously enhancing properties and communicating participation in a global green building movement.  

Charging stations come in two classes: residential or commercial.  Residential charging stations are built for single-family homes. Commercial stations are more sophisticated, both in terms of hardware and software.

Where Will Drivers Charge?

Electric vehicles are causing a paradigm shift in auto fueling.  Drivers want “fueling” stations where their cars are parked.  And with the average time of multiple hours that it takes to fully charge and electric vehicle, drivers have a top-up mindset.  This creates a need for electric vehicle charging services to not only be available at homes, but also at businesses, commercial properties, retail establishments and along roadways where commuters travel.

Levels of Charging

Level I – Level I refers to the standard 110VAC outlets that you have in your home. 

Level II (Residential) – Level II residential charging stations push energy at 240Volts and 30Amps.  

*Level II (Commercial) – Level II commercial stations are the industry standard for charging vehicles when not at home. They deliver the same 240Volts and 30Amps as the residential stations, however, the real value comes in when the commercial stations are smart-networked.  This means that the station is connected to software that makes it easy for a building owner to manage their stations, see how many EV drivers have used the stations, run sustainability reports, bill for electricity usage and more.  

Level III, or DC Fast Charging – Level III, sometimes referred to as DC Fast Charging, ranges from 200 to 600 VDC and can recharge an electric vehicle in as little as 30 minutes. This is a fantastic solution for charging on the go.  You will typically find Level III or DC Fast Charging stations purchased by your state government along interstate highways.
