Once you have made the decision to purchase an electric vehicle, you must consider charging options. While there is a network of charging stations across Texas, an in home EV charger is a must. The EV charger is an element in the infrastructure that supplies electric energy for the recharging of plug-in electric vehicles. This is for both fully electric cars as well as plug-in hybrids. The residential charging station has a standard receptacle, typically in the garage, so the car can charge overnight. This will have no separate metering but may require a dedicated circuit for faster charging.

1. Level 1- charging does not require any professional installation. It is the least expensive option but, also, takes the longest to charge. Delivering only 2-5 miles per hour of charge.
2. Level 2– This charger cannot be plugged into a standard electrical outlet. This will take a professional installation. These chargers provide 10-60 miles per hour of charge. Due to this, this charger is suitable for both residential and commercial properties
3. DC Fast Charger – This is, by far, the fastest charging option. You can charge 10-60 miles every 20 minutes. These chargers require special equipment that must be installed by an authorized professional.
