EV Charging for New Construction in Mountain View

Mountain View — home to Google — has some of the highest EV ownership rates anywhere in the United States. The housing mix ranges from post-war bungalows near Castro Street (100-amp panels, careful DPM assessment needed) to newer townhome and condo developments near Shoreline. One consideration unique to Mountain View: the city has a higher proportion of rental housing than neighboring cities. California AB 2565 gives tenants the right to install EV charging in their assigned parking — and ChargeWizards has navigated multiple landlord-tenant and HOA approval processes here. The City of Mountain View Building Division processes most EV permits in 7–14 business days.
