A couple missing pieces of information that would be helpful:
- Is the parking location secured or open to the public
- Is the charger location protected from weather or completely open to rain?
- Are you sure that $.09 / kWH is your total cost of energy and do you have a TOU rate plan that may affect that?
- Is the company going to make you pay for installation, or just the HPWC?
- Do you plan on staying at this company more than 6 months?
If you can install an HPWC in a secure spot free from vandalism, only pay for the HPWC itself and your charge for free, it is a no-brainer. For all the people who say "you can charge fast enough at home", would you buy your own gas if your company offered to pay for your gas if you filled up at work? It's just dumb not to take free energy.
