Jennifer Chang says most of the new installations
by the Walnut, CA-based company are in the
western U.S., most notably Southern California

commercial real estate developers are reacting to
solid, sustained growth of the EV industry. In
many markets, they are playing catch-up, their
customers inquiring about easy-to-locate,
easy-to-use EV charging stations.
3Chang cites InsideEVs data showing 2018 was the
best year ever for EV sales in the US, with
361,307 units sold more than double from two
years ago. We have orders from small motels to
major parking garages in Las Vegas casinos,
Chang says. Hotel owners and retail developers
are looking for smart EV charging stations that
make customers happy while supplying an
additional source of revenue. For charging site
owners, Noodoe says it offers the advantages of
both universal charging and automated
operation. The business operation is 100
self-service and totally automated. A sampling of
Noodoe charging installations in Southern
California includes 10 wall-mounts for the
Sheraton Universal City, double chargers at the
Hilton Palm Springs, garage installations at the
Millennium Biltmore in downtown Los Angeles and
undisclosed properties in Las Vegas and Canada.
