Our Approach

From site control
to long-term operations.

Gridlane executes the full development lifecycle for DC fast charging infrastructure. Every phase is owned, coordinated, and accountable to a single team.

Development Phases
01
Site Identification
and Control

Every project begins with rigorous site qualification. We evaluate traffic, utility access, and commercial viability before entering any site agreement. Controlled sites only — no speculative locations.

Corridor and traffic analysis — freeway proximity, ADT counts, travel pattern review
Long-term site agreements — ground leases or license agreements with defined development rights
Preliminary utility review — available service capacity assessment before site commitment
02
Utility Coordination
and Interconnection

Gridlane initiates utility engagement at project inception. This single discipline eliminates the most common cause of charging program failure — late utility discovery adding 18 to 24 months to a project schedule.

Load study submission — formal capacity request and load impact analysis
Service entrance design — coordinated with utility engineering for required configuration
Demand management planning — peak coordination and load-shifting strategy where applicable
03
Permitting
and Entitlements

We manage the full permitting process without delegation. AHJ coordination, building permits, electrical inspections, and zoning compliance are treated as internal program deliverables.

AHJ pre-application meetings — early jurisdiction engagement to reduce approval cycle time
Building and electrical permits — full set submission with stamped engineering drawings
Environmental and zoning review — compliance documentation and variance management
04
Construction
and Commissioning

Civil, electrical, and EVSE installation are managed as a single coordinated program. Our team maintains full accountability from groundbreak through final energization — no fragmented vendor handoffs.

Civil and electrical construction — coordinated site prep, conduit, service entrance, equipment installation
EVSE installation and configuration — charger mounting, network enrollment, operational testing
Commissioning and energization — utility sign-off, inspection close-out, network activation
05
Operations
and Network Management

Gridlane operates what it builds. Our team maintains 24/7 remote monitoring, documented response SLAs, and preventive maintenance across every location. Uptime is tracked and enforced — not aspirational.

24/7 remote monitoring — real-time visibility with automated fault detection and alert routing
Rapid-response dispatch — documented SLA response times for hardware failures
Preventive maintenance — scheduled inspections, connector testing, component replacement protocols
Technical Standards

Built to perform,
not just to exist.

Output Standard
150 kW minimum per port
All Gridlane installations meet 150 kW minimum, with 350 kW capable architecture at corridor locations designed for commercial dwell time.
Connector Standard
CCS and NACS capable
Multi-standard charging capability across all installations, serving the full range of current and emerging EV platforms.
Network Uptime
99% availability target
Uptime tracked per location per month. Locations that do not meet standard trigger corrective maintenance protocols.
Monitoring
24/7 remote visibility
Fault detection, session data, and network health tracked in real time with automated alert routing to our operations team.
Power Architecture
Utility-coordinated design
Every service entrance is coordinated with the serving utility before design finalization. No capacity assumptions — only confirmed service agreements.
Program Compliance
NEVI-aligned standards
Installations designed to meet NEVI technical requirements including port minimums, uptime standards, payment compliance, and data reporting obligations.
