California condo development adds an EV charger in every garage


Another private community is installing charging stations in every unit.

The Woodland Creek Homeowners Association of East Palo Alto, California—a condominium development that was formed in 2002 and consists of single-family semi-detached residences—is in the process of installing the Pando Smart Outlet at all 90 homes and three shared-use buildings in the community, including a clubhouse and a fitness center.

The head of the Woodland Creek EV Charging Committee, Tom Herbs, said that Pando was the “clear choice” for the job and that Pando’s lower cost allowed the association to switch from having shared charging units to placing a charger in every garage. Each Pando charger will cost less than $500 installed.

The Pando Electric Smart Outlet’s universal, socket-based system is designed to keep installation costs to a minimum. Also, because drivers must use their own cables to attach their autos to the mains, the Pando system eliminates the all-too-common broken cord issue. Behind the scenes, Pando uses adaptive energy load management tools to maintain efficient operations.
