EV Charging Infrastructure

Smart, Scalable EV Charging Solutions. The demand for EV infrastructure is growing, and proper planning ensures that charging stations are efficient, user-friendly, and future-proof. We design charging layouts that optimize space, integrate with existing developments, and support long-term growth.

Service Image

Experience in Commercial, Mixed-Use, and Public Charging Projects. We work with developers, municipalities, and private clients to create charging solutions that meet both regulatory requirements and practical needs. Whether it's a retail parking lot, a corporate fleet hub, or a public charging corridor, we tailor the design to the site.

A Turnkey Approach to EV Charging Infrastructure. From site selection and permitting to final implementation, we guide projects through every stage. Our expertise in zoning, accessibility, and utility coordination ensures that each EV charging project is designed for efficiency and built for the future.

  • Optimized Layouts for Maximum Efficiency. The placement of EV chargers impacts traffic flow, accessibility, and overall usability. We design layouts that maximize charging capacity while maintaining smooth site circulation for vehicles and pedestrians.
  • Seamless Integration with New and Existing Developments. Whether adding chargers to an existing parking lot or designing an entire charging hub from scratch, we ensure that EV infrastructure fits within the broader site design without disrupting daily operations.
  • Permitting, Compliance, and Utility Coordination. Navigating the regulatory landscape for EV charging stations can be complex. We manage zoning requirements, ADA compliance, and coordination with utility providers to streamline the approval process.

Smart Solutions for Commercial, Public, and Mixed-Use Developments. From standalone charging hubs to integrated parking facilities, we design EV infrastructure that balances function, cost-efficiency, and user convenience.

EV Charging Infrastructure & Permits

Commercial EV Charger Installation: Site, Utility, and Permitting Requirements Commercial EV charger installations are infrastructure projects, not equipment installs. They routinely trigger civil, electrical, and sometimes plumbing review, and are subject to full site and utility coordination with the local building department. Because chargers affect grading, drainage, power distribution, lighting, and accessibility, commercial EV installations are reviewed as part of the site rather than as isolated electrical work. Disciplines Commonly Required for Commercial EV Charger Projects Commercial EV charger permitting typically requires coordinated documentation across multiple disciplines: Civil Engineering Grading and drainage plans Required when trenching, new pads, curb cuts, or paved surface modifications occur. Utility routing Conduit paths, transformer locations, and utility clearances. Site accessibility and parking impacts Including accessible routes and stall modifications. Electrical Engineering Power distribution and service capacity analysis Electrical site plans showing chargers, feeders, panels, and equipment Electrical load calculations Site lighting and photometric plans Required when new lighting is added or existing lighting is modified to support nighttime use, safety, or code compliance. Plumbing (When Applicable) Landscape irrigation coordination Required when trenching or equipment placement impacts existing irrigation systems. Water management considerations Including protection of irrigation lines and coordination with drainage improvements. Architectural / Site Coordination Equipment clearances and mounting details Pedestrian circulation and accessibility compliance Visual coordination with existing site features where required by the jurisdiction Permitting and Review Process Commercial EV charger projects typically follow this sequence: Site evaluation and utility capacity assessment Preparation of coordinated civil, electrical, and supporting plans Submission for municipal plan review City comments and revisions Permit issuance Construction and inspections Final approval for use The level of review increases with site disturbance, number of chargers, and electrical demand. Why Commercial EV Chargers Trigger Multi-Discipline Review Cities require multi-discipline review because EV chargers: Alter site drainage through trenching and pad installation Impact underground utilities and irrigation systems Increase electrical demand and nighttime site use Require compliant lighting for safety and accessibility Modify parking layouts and accessible routes Introduce long-term infrastructure into the public realm Treating EV chargers as “just electrical” is a common cause of permitting delays and redesign. EV Charging Infrastructure Expertise Commercial EV charging infrastructure requires coordination across engineering disciplines and familiarity with municipal review standards.
