Is a charging station worthwhile at my vacation home?
That depends on three figures: the investment in the charging pole and its connection, how many guests actually charge, and the price per kWh you set. Work out the investment payback through the margin per charging session: with few charging guests it takes tens of years to recoup, with many electric car owners among your guests it can be within a few years. Without a separate billing system, you currently pay for charging electricity yourself via the general bill. So first check how many of your guests arrive with an electric car before you invest.
