Partner With Us

In a joint venture, you contribute land and GridWise Energy contributes development work and capital. Charging revenue is shared according to percentages negotiated for your specific project. Because income depends on actual usage, it can vary, so the agreement should explain how revenue is calculated, reported and paid.

Not necessarily. Many partnerships pair the landowner’s property with GridWise Energy’s development capital, and some owners choose to contribute money as well. Every structure is negotiated, and the agreement should define each partner’s contribution, responsibilities and risks before any construction work begins on your land.

Control is set out in the partnership agreement. It typically covers decisions about site layout, pricing, tenants, maintenance and future expansion. We discuss which decisions require your approval and which are handled by our team, so expectations are clear and documented before the project moves forward.

A partnership can offer upside from charging revenue, but income depends on how much the station is used, so it carries more variability than fixed lease rent. We explain the differences openly and encourage you to review assumptions and terms with your own financial and legal advisers.

In most partnerships, GridWise Energy manages development, construction, maintenance coordination and tenant relationships. The agreement should state who handles daily operations, repairs, software, customer support and insurance, and how those costs are treated before revenue is shared between the partners on your project.
