The Challenge

What Fitness Venues Are Missing Without EV Charging

🔄

Members Choosing Competing Gyms

Gym selection is increasingly influenced by practical amenities. EV-driving members will choose — and stay with — the gym where they can charge.

📱

Not Appearing in EV Discovery Searches

EV drivers searching for charging locations near them discover gyms that offer it. Without charging, you miss this organic discovery channel entirely.

💰

Untapped Revenue From Car Park

Gym car parks are busy throughout the day. That footfall is an untapped revenue opportunity — one that also adds real value to your members' visit.

Why Energy-Partners

Why Gym Chains Are Investing in EV Charging Now

Member Retention Tool

Members who charge at your gym have a strong practical reason to stay. Churn reduction through charging is measurable and significant for multi-site operators.

Premium Membership Differentiator

EV charging in a premium tier justifies a higher monthly fee and attracts the demographic most likely to have a high disposable income.

Car Park Revenue

Open bays to the public during low-demand periods — generating revenue from local EV drivers even when gym attendance is low.

Staff Benefit & Recruitment

Offer free staff charging as a tax-efficient benefit — supporting recruitment and retention in a competitive fitness industry jobs market.

Sustainability Positioning

EV charging supports your brand's sustainability credentials — increasingly relevant for the health-conscious, environmentally-aware gym demographic.

Future-Proofed Infrastructure

Install the cable infrastructure now so adding more bays later costs a fraction of the initial installation. Scale as your members adopt EVs.
