Who whould let you install an EV Charger?



Why would anyone want an electric car?



Just how big is this new enterprise?

We at Thermo1 can not promise you that you will become the next billionaire or even that you will make a dime if you were to start your own EV charging network. What we can tell you is that there are very few business that you can get into that are not already dominated by huge corporations or over saturated with thousands of smaller ones. So if you are looking for a fresh business opportunity with huge potential perhaps this is it.

The next round of billionaires crowned will not come from the dot-com sector, but rather from the emerging renewable and alternative energy technologies industry. Renewable energy is the new kid in town and with the Obama administration in Washington he will get all the support he needs to grow up big and strong. For better or worse Obama is betting that investments in renewable energy will turn the economy around. One particular area that is moving surprisingly fast is the electric vehicle sector. EV's are moving faster than ever anticipated. In part because auto manufactures who are desperate for new sales have speed up the development of their EV product line. Some have realized how easy it is to retrofit an existing model like the Mini Cooper to an all electric vehicle. BMW has lined up sales of their Mini-EV in New York, New Jersey and Los Angeles for market testing in early 2009. If all goes well tens of thousands could hit the road within a year or two.

In fact most of the world's car manufactures plan to release their own EV line over the next two years. However realizing how relevant the old adage, “You can't drag the cart before the horse” is to the success of EV marketing, many have already begun to build a EV charging station network. For example the Renault-Nissan alliance is currently working with Sonoma County, California, to develop a EV charging network before the release of their new all-electric 2010 models. You see, one of the draw backs for EV sales is that the consumer does not want to risk driving an electric vehicle around and run out of juice far from home. So the auto manufactures are actively involved in building an EV charging station network to promote the sales of EV's.

Then there are entrepreneurs like Shai Agassi and his company, Better Place who have secured deals with three communities in the San Francisco bay area to invest one billion dollars in building an EV charge station network. Investors big and small from mom & pops in Georgia to large corporations in LA are rushing to build the EV charging station network. And look at what Coulomb Technologies (http://www.coulombtech.com) has working with their ChargePoint Network.

Why the big rush to build EV charing stations? What better business is there to be in but one that makes the Earth a little greener and helps fight global warming. Green profits is the name of the game and it promises to be very green for those who get in early. You see, the parking industry in the US alone is a 26 billion dollar a year industry! Little by little more and more parking meters are being replaced with charging meters for the fleets of electric cars due to hit the road soon. In the not too distant future people will be fighting over parking spots that have a charing meter. Restaurants and other retail business with charging stations in their parking lots will attract faithful customers who own electric vehicles and are pleased that they can be charging their vehicle while shopping or dinning.
