Why tourist attractions in Fresno are a strong EV charger investment

Fresno is a high-priority disadvantaged-community zone for federal incentives. With roughly 30,000+ registered EVs in Fresno County and major demand drivers around the CA-99 freight corridor and Yosemite-bound traffic, EV charging sessions at tourist attractions here run 20-40 per day per Level 3 charger. That puts gross monthly revenue per typical tourist attraction site in the $12K-$25K range.

Tourist Attraction sites combine 3-8 hours of dwell time with the EV-driving demographic Fresno attracts. Local utility rates of about $0.24/kWh through PG&E, paired with the property's long-dwell visitor charging at theme parks, museums, and destinations. make this combo one of the highest-ROI opportunities in Central Valley.
