Moving your charging point or buying a new one?

When moving house, the question of whether to move or buy a new charging station is of paramount importance to electric vehicle owners. 

 

Here are a few tips to help you make the right choice.

Moving your charging station

Moving a charging station may seem like a cheap and easy solution. 

 

However, it is important to take into account the cost and effort involved in dismantling and reassembly. dismantlingdisassembly transport and reinstallation. In addition, you'll need to ensure that your new home is compatible with your existing terminal infrastructure.

 

Nevertheless, opting for this option can provide you with several advantages, namely:

 

  • you don't need to reinvest in a new terminal,
  • you'll continue to use equipment you're already familiar with,
  • and you'll benefit from the same services as in your previous home if you've taken out a maintenance contract for your recharging solution. 

 

To consult : Maintenance contract: is it essential for a charging station?

 

On the other hand, moving with your charging station has its drawbacks, such as:

 

  • risk of damage in transit.
  • the potential cost of dismantling and reinstallation is not negligible.

 

It's also worth noting that if you move house, any additional offers you have taken out will still be effective, without the need to cancel. In fact, whether you have a recharge card or have a warranty for your terminal such as Beev Careyou can simply transfer the subscription to the new address.

Buying a new charging station

Buying a new charging station when you move house can offer significant advantages. The new charging stations available on the market can offer more advanced technologies and faster installation.

 

This makes it possible to : 

 

  • access to financial assistance for purchase and installation,
  • and the possibility of acquiring a more modern, more efficient terminal.

 

Nevertheless, a number of disadvantages have been identified, including :

 

  • higher initial investment,
  • and the need to familiarize yourself with new equipment.

 

What's more, if you choose not to relocate your charging station because of the installation installation complexity and/or profitabilitythis will enable you to significantly enhance the value of your property.

In fact, the investment made for this charging point will now contribute to the overall value of your home. 

 

In other words, you'll have an additional additional selling point for your propertypotentially increasing its perceived value:

 

  • the difficulty of recharging at public charging stations,

  • a ban on the sale of new electric vehicles from 2035,
  • of an increasingly important ecological transition in recent years, 
  • and the growing appeal of electromobility to motorists in France.

 

To consult : Charging stations: what's the current state of deployment?

 

This advantage is particularly relevant in condominiumswhere the installation of charging stations is a much longer process.

 

In short, the decision between moving your charging station or buying a new one depends on a number of factorsincluding cost, technical compatibility and the benefits of new technologies.

If your current terminal is recent and the cost of moving is reasonable, relocating it may be a good option. However, if you want to take advantage of technological advances or benefit from subsidies, buying a new hydrant could be more cost-effective.

 

To do this, you'll need to find out beforehand which is the most economical option for you. To do this, our experts Beev experts are available Monday to Friday, 9am to 7pm to help you make the right choice.

How much can I expect to pay to move my charging station?

When moving house, 2 IRVE technicians are often needed. The first, located near the old home, will dismantle the charging station, while the second, near the new home, will reinstall it.

 

These 2 separate operations are invoiced according to the complexity of the work to be carried out and the precautions required. 

 

You therefore need to allow for approximately 300 ex-VAT for uninstalling the bollard and between 300 to 920 € ex. VAT for reinstallation in the new home, given that all the settings have to be redone.

 

Please note that these costs may increase in the event of particular technical difficulties, such as : 

 

  • a obsolete electric meter to replace,
  • a greater distance between terminal and meter than ever before,
    • requiring additional wiring
  • and pairing options to be reprogrammed in more complex ways.

 

Finally, if the charging station is not under a maintenance contract with a twice-yearly biennial visitthe authorized technician may refuse to install it. This is because the technician may be unwilling to guarantee equipment for which he or she is unaware of the initial installation conditions and previous use.

 

As a reminder, if you wish to purchase a single-phase charging station (i.e. 7 kW), you can expect to pay between 300 € to 600 € excl. depending on the model and options chosen.

 

For three-phase three-phase charging stations (i.e. 11 or 22 kW), the price will be between 600 to €900 excl..

Moving your charging point: key points to know

When the time comes to move your charging station, there are several crucial aspects to consider to ensure a smooth and efficient transition. 

 

This section explores in detail the essential steps and best practices to follow to move your charging station safely and compliantly.

Who do I contact to uninstall and install my charging station?

The removal and installation of a charging station requires the intervention of a qualified professional, i.e. a IRVE-qualified electrician. Indeed, beyond the simple removal of the equipment, it is crucial to ensure that safety safety standards are met and that the electrical network is not disrupted. At the same time, you can purchase a charging station equipped with a load-shedding system to minimize risks.

 

N.B. : Since the decree of January 12, 2017, the installation of a charging infrastructure with a power equal to or greater than 3.7 kW must be carried out by an IRVE (Infrastructure de Recharge pour Véhicule Electrique) certified professional who has undergone specific training.

 

We therefore strongly advise against attempting to dismantle the bollard yourself without the appropriate expertise, as this could compromise the safety of the installation.

 

Calling in this professional prevents risks: 

  • fires, 
  • overheating, 
  • and other damage caused by incorrect installation.

You'll also be eligible for the various grants available for the installation of a charging station, and will be covered by your insurance in the event of an accident. The reason? The use of a qualified technician is a legal requirement imposed by the State to guarantee compliance with current standards (in particular the NF 15-100 standard) and to ensure the durability of the private network deployed.

 

To consult : Aid for the installation of charging stations in 2024

  • a tax credit for electric charging stations (CIBRE) of up to 500 €

 

→ For a maximum of 75% of the expenses incurred, i.e. a ceiling of €500 per controllable terminal. This tax incentive is in force until December 31, 2025.

 

  • and local local and regional subsidies

 

Please note You will need to meet a number of eligibility criteria to qualify for these different types of assistance.

This right authorizes any resident of a condominium building to installat his or her own expense charging station with a maximum capacity of 22 kW in a condominium parking space.

Since January 1, 2021, a decree resulting from the LOM law has extended this right to all condominium occupants, regardless of their status. 

 

To exercise this right owners must inform the syndicate by registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt. Tenants tenantsmust notify the owner, detailing the work planned who will then take the necessary steps with the syndicate to submit the request to the general meeting.

 

The syndicat des copropriétaires cannot oppose the installation of charging stations in the condominiumprovided the project complies with current standards. A request on the agenda of the next general meeting does not require a vote if it is the result of an individual initiative by an occupant.

 

However, only 3 legal grounds for refusing installation :

 

  • Proven technical impossibility of the project,
  • Existing recharging facilities already meet needs,
  • An installation project already underway or planned within a reasonable timeframe.

 

If you're moving into a condominium, it's a good idea to put in a request for installation well in advance, so that you can get your own terminal as quickly as possible.
