Blink Owned Turnkey for Select DC Fast Charging Sites

For select locations that meet Blink’s investment criteria, Blink may fund, deploy, own and operate a DC fast charging station. Every site is evaluated using location, demand, technical feasibility and project economics before it qualifies.

A Selective, Data-Led Investment Model

Blink Owned Turnkey is designed for publicly accessible DC fast charging locations with a strong, evidence-based demand case. Blink reviews each opportunity to determine whether the site can support a reliable, high-use charging operation and an acceptable long-term investment.

The Right Business Model for Your Charging Needs

What Makes a Good Site

• Strong public DC fast charging use case supported by expected demand, traffic patterns and nearby EV adoption

• Convenient, broadly accessible amenities that align with the expected charging dwell time

• Safe, visible public access 24/7, with easy site entry, exit and vehicle circulation

• Sufficient parking and space for chargers, accessible stalls and electrical equipment

• Utility capacity and a practical path through design, construction and permitting

• A location that strengthens network coverage and is differentiated from nearby charging options

• Project costs, commercial terms and long-term financial performance that support Blink investment

Meeting one criterion does not guarantee approval. Blink considers the full site profile, validates submitted information and determines the appropriate equipment, stall count, commercial structure and deployment scope.

How the Evaluation Process Works

1. Submit site and property information.

2. Blink completes an initial location and demand screen.

3. Qualified opportunities advance to technical, utility, commercial and financial review.

4. Approved sites proceed under mutually agreed definitive terms.

For Approved Sites, Blink Can Provide

  • Site-specific DC fast charging design and deployment

  • Blink-owned charging equipment and network operation

  • Monitoring, maintenance and driver support

  • A commercial structure tailored to the approved site and project economics

  • Long-term operation under agreed contract terms
