E-mobility at home: how Livit simplifies the expansion of charging station infrastructure

More and more tenants want to be able to charge their electric vehicle at home. With standardised processes and established partners, Livit creates the ideal conditions for efficient, scalable and future-proof charging infrastructure. Sophia Summer, Real Estate Sustainability Specialist at Livit, explains how property owners and tenants benefit from this.

«If a tenant wants a charging station, we respond as quickly as possible», says Sophia Summer, Real Estate Sustainability Specialist at Livit. The demand for charging infrastructure is rising continuously. Livit has standardised the process surrounding charging infrastructure – from planning and installation to billing – to ensure property owners and tenants get the right solutions quickly.

The result: around 300 of the properties managed by Livit are already equipped with charging stations, and this figure is set to rise. «Thanks to clearly defined processes, we often complete new installations within two to three months», says Summer. 

Established partnerships ensure efficiency

Long-term partnerships with experienced service providers are another key success factor. When it comes to installation, Livit works with specialist companies throughout Switzerland who are familiar with the requirements and standards. The processes for the products themselves are also deliberately kept lean: Livit works with two established providers, while billing is handled by a single third-party provider.

Summing up the benefits, Summer says: «For property owners, this means less coordination effort, more transparency and a solution that works in practice.»

Install today, flexibly expand tomorrow

However, installing individual charging stations alone is not enough. Livit plans with foresight to ensure that properties continue to meet increasing demands in the future. This is why, when it installs new charging stations, it creates the technical prerequisites for future expansions.

«We often make structural and technical preparations for further connections. This allows us to react even more quickly when demand increases», says Summer, explaining the forward-looking approach. This enables a gradual expansion of infrastructure as more tenants switch to electromobility.

A win for property owners and tenants

The concept has proven successful in practice: tenants benefit from convenient charging options right at their home. Property owners receive a solution that boosts the appeal of their property and can be flexibly expanded as demand increases. «We receive a lot of positive feedback from both tenants and property owners», says Sophia Summer.
