The firm, which owns about 130 buildings with 1,300 parking spaces, will phase in the installation, starting with 300 spaces. They have partnered with <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ubiden, Inc.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for their EV charging service, offering economical rates. This initiative aligns with Japan&#8217;s 2035 goal for electric vehicle adoption and comes as Reference also undertakes property renovations. By leveraging substantial national and municipal subsidies, Reference aims to cover up to 90% of the installation costs, setting a potential national precedent in rental property enhancements for EV compatibility. <\/span><b>Source: <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/11heya.co.jp\/2024\/03\/27\/%E5%85%A8%E8%B3%83%E8%B2%B8%E3%83%9E%E3%83%B3%E3%82%B7%E3%83%A7%E3%83%B3%E3%81%AE%E9%A7%90%E8%BB%8A%E5%A0%B4%E3%81%ABev%E5%85%85%E9%9B%BB%E3%82%B3%E3%83%B3%E3%82%BB%E3%83%B3%E3%83%88%E3%82%92%E8%A8%AD\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reference<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-162884\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/fnn_reference-ev-car_2024_cl.jpg?resize=1400%2C933&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Fukuoka-Based Reference to Equip All Rental Properties with EV Charging Stations\" width=\"1400\" height=\"933\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/fnn_reference-ev-car_2024_cl.jpg?w=1400&amp;ssl=1 1400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/fnn_reference-ev-car_2024_cl.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/fnn_reference-ev-car_2024_cl.jpg?resize=1024%2C682&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/fnn_reference-ev-car_2024_cl.jpg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stay informed with the latest Fukuoka &amp; Kyushu news and events in English.
