Why Hotels Are Installing EV Charging

If you run a hotel, you’re not just in the business of beds and breakfasts. You’re in the business of customer experience, and right now, that experience is changing, because EV drivers are looking for more than a room. They’re looking for a charging convenience.

Real-world example: Ibis Hotels charge ahead

When Ibis Hotels wanted to upgrade their customer offering, they turned to us at EVC Solutions. Together, we delivered a smart EV charging solution across two of their locations in Derby and Leicester.

Each site now features eight 22kW KEBA chargers, intelligently managed with load-balancing technology to maximise existing electrical capacity. No major infrastructure upgrade needed. No disruption to guests.

Why EV charging makes sense for hotels and leisure venues

This isn’t just a nice-to-have feature anymore. Here’s what EV charging delivers for hotels:

• Increased bookings from EV drivers
  Many EV drivers now search for hotels with charging as standard. Be the option they choose.
• Better guest experience
  Convenience matters. When guests can plug in while they sleep, they leave happy.
• New revenue stream
  Charging points generate income every time they’re used. It’s as simple as that.
• Stronger sustainability credentials
  Customers, corporate bookers, and travel platforms all care about green credentials. This is a visible, valuable win.

What the client said:

"The collaboration with EVC Solutions has been a fantastic step forward. The chargers are not only easy for our guests to use but also help us attract new visitors and encourage our regulars to keep coming back. EVC’s expertise in balancing power distribution across multiple charge points has been invaluable."

Belief shift: EV charging is no longer about the future – it’s about today

EV adoption is accelerating. And the hotels that act now won’t just catch up.
They’ll stand out.

This isn’t about ticking a box. It’s about:

• Differentiating from the hotel down the road
• Creating reasons for guests to return
• Becoming part of your guest’s daily routine, not just their travel plans
