What is Chateau Development?

Commercial transportation fleets are planning to purchase electric vehicles in growing numbers – only to be met with the realization that electrifying a fleet is a costly, complex, and cumbersome process. The successful adoption of battery-electric vehicles is dependent on access to reliable and cost-effective charging.

Chateau Development sites, interconnects, builds, owns, and operates scalable charging centers to support the operation of commercial electric vehicles. We work with fleets that operate Class 3 to Class 8 vehicles. Our charging centers are strategically located to offer fleets convenient access to critical power infrastructure. For a flat monthly rate, fleets can enjoy a smooth transition to electric transportation.

Benefits of Chateau Development

Chateau Development overcomes the biggest barrier to fleet electrification – charging infrastructure. Many fleet operators lack the real estate, power, and/or capital required to build charging infrastructure at scale. By partnering with Chateau Development, fleets can focus on efficiently moving freight while benefitting from zero-emissions truck operations.

Benefits of charging centers
  • Eliminate capital costs of building charging infrastructure
  • Streamline access to charging capacity
  • Avoid site disruptions
  • Rely on experts for charger operations
  • Stabilize fuel costs
  • Guarantee EV charger uptime
  • Reserve dedicated EV chargers
  • Mitigate risk of evolving technology
