Level 3 DC Fast Charging for Businesses in the Rio Grande Valley

DC fast chargers, often called Level 3, charge an electric vehicle in minutes instead of hours. They bring drivers to your property and keep them there while they charge. RGV Solar plans and installs DC fast charging for businesses across the Rio Grande Valley, including Tesla Superchargers. We are a licensed Texas electrical contractor, TECL #37418, based in Mission.

What a DC fast charging project involves

DC fast chargers need large three-phase electrical service. Most projects involve the utility early: service capacity, a new or upgraded transformer, and a new service to the charging area. We plan that with the utility, design the site, and handle the electrical work from the service to the chargers.

  • Site selection and layout for vehicle access
  • Utility coordination for service and transformer capacity
  • Electrical design, switchgear and new service
  • Civil work: trenching, conduit and charger pads
  • Permits, inspections and commissioning

Operating costs to plan for

Commercial electric rates can include demand charges, which depend on your highest power use. We help you plan the charger count and site design with those costs in mind, and we can pair the site with solar and battery storage to reduce peak demand.

Tesla Superchargers and other DC fast chargers

We install Tesla Superchargers and other DC fast chargers. The right equipment depends on who your drivers are and how you want to run the site.

DC fast charging questions

Level 2 charges over several hours and fits places where cars stay parked. Level 3, or DC fast charging, charges in minutes and fits places where drivers stop briefly.

Most sites need a utility service upgrade for DC fast charging. We review your service and coordinate with the utility early.

Yes. Solar and battery storage can reduce the peak demand that drives commercial demand charges.

Utility service and equipment lead times set most of the schedule. We give you a timeline after the feasibility review.
