Enerando Analyzes ROI and Revenue Models for Hotel EV Charging Infrastructure

Enerando, a provider of electric vehicle charging infrastructure solutions, has published an economic review focusing on the return on investment (ROI) and various revenue models for charging infrastructure within the hospitality sector.

The company's analysis suggests that charging infrastructure is not merely a service for hotels but a significant economic factor. With the rapid growth of EV users, hotels offering charging facilities can anticipate increased occupancy rates and additional revenue streams. The report notes that approximately 40% of business and leisure travelers prefer hotels with charging points, leading to better rankings on platforms like Booking and Google.

Initial investment costs for installing a charging point, including a legally compliant charging station, are estimated to be around €3,000. The analysis indicates that with moderate utilization, a single charging point can yield profits of approximately €100–€200 per month. Furthermore, publicly accessible charging points can generate further revenue through greenhouse gas reduction quotas (THG quote), potentially accelerating the investment's payback period.

Enerando estimates that a charging point can achieve ROI within two to three years. The company promotes leasing options to mitigate upfront capital expenditure. They offer tailored leasing packages for hotels and the gastronomy sector, enabling the implementation of modern charging infrastructure without substantial initial investment.

The company emphasizes that charging infrastructure acts as an economic driver for hotels, rather than a cost center. It enhances hotel appeal and creates sustainable revenue, contributing to the financial success of adopting electromobility.
