I’m an entrepreneur based in LA and recently moved from a house with a Tesla charger to an apartment in WeHo without a charging station.

I’ve realized there’s a large gap for fast charging in the West LA area. There’s only one Supercharger in WeHo (plans to build a second but unclear on timeline).

I’m curious what the viability is to set up a new fast charging station. I’m still in the research phase (talking EV Box to get a better understanding of startup costs etc) but curious if anyone here has first hand experience.

This area is very underserved - many apartments tons of Tesla & EVs.

    The actual gap is residential charging infrastructure, not fast charging. If you can get easy access to people charging overnight near their home within the city centers that would cover an actual need.

    OutOfSpec did a video on how hard it is to charge an EV in New York.
