Case Study: DC Fast Charging & Level 2 EV Charger Installation for CMA Ford Williamsburg
As electric vehicle adoption continues to grow across Virginia, dealerships are playing an increasingly important role in supporting EV drivers with reliable charging infrastructure.
Go Green Electric recently partnered with CMA Ford Williamsburg to install two DC Fast Chargers and four Level 2 charging stations, helping expand EV charging access for Ford Lightning, Mustang Mach-E, and other electric vehicle owners throughout the Williamsburg area.
The project represents another step forward in preparing Hampton Roads and the Virginia Peninsula for the future of transportation.
The Growing Demand for EV Charging
Electric vehicle ownership continues to increase throughout Virginia.
As more drivers transition to electric vehicles, businesses, dealerships, municipalities, and commercial property owners are evaluating how charging infrastructure fits into their long-term plans.
For dealerships, charging infrastructure serves several important purposes:
Supporting customers after vehicle delivery
Demonstrating EV capabilities
Preparing for future demand
Providing charging access for employees and visitors
Supporting service department operations
For CMA Ford Williamsburg, investing in EV charging infrastructure was an investment in both today's customers and tomorrow's growth.
DC Fast Charging vs Level 2 Charging
The project included two different types of charging solutions.
DC Fast Charging
DC Fast Chargers deliver high-speed charging for electric vehicles and are often used when minimizing charging time is important.
Benefits include:
Faster charging speeds
Improved convenience for drivers
Better support for long-distance travel
Reduced vehicle downtime
For Ford F-150 Lightning owners, DC Fast Charging can be especially valuable during longer trips, towing situations, or when a quick recharge is needed.
Level 2 Charging
Level 2 charging remains the most common EV charging solution for daily use.
Benefits include:
Reliable charging performance
Lower installation costs
Ideal charging speeds for everyday driving
Excellent support for employees, visitors, and dealership operations
The combination of DC Fast Charging and Level 2 charging creates a flexible charging environment that serves multiple driver needs.
Supporting Ford Lightning and Mustang Mach-E Drivers
Ford continues to expand its electric vehicle lineup, with the F-150 Lightning and Mustang Mach-E becoming increasingly common throughout Virginia.
Providing accessible charging infrastructure helps support:
Local EV adoption
Customer confidence
Fleet electrification
Long-distance travel
Future vehicle growth
Projects like this help ensure drivers have convenient access to the charging solutions they need.
