    Why auto dealers in Anaheim are a strong EV charger investment

    Anaheim is a top tourism market driven by Disneyland and the Anaheim Convention Center. With roughly 55,000+ registered EVs in Orange County and major demand drivers around Disneyland Resort and the Anaheim Convention Center, EV charging sessions at auto dealers here run 12-22 per day per Level 3 charger. That puts gross monthly revenue per typical auto dealer site in the $6K-$15K range.

    Auto Dealer sites combine 30-90 minutes of dwell time with the EV-driving demographic Anaheim attracts. Local utility rates of about $0.21/kWh through Anaheim Public Utilities / SCE, paired with the property's service-customer charging plus ev showroom credibility in one investment. make this combo one of the highest-ROI opportunities in Southern California.
