I've been dreaming about adding 240v charging capabilities to my detached garage for a while. My wife or I will likely go EV for a next car, and I preferably want a level 2 charger for it. My garage is severely lacking power, main panel in house only feeds a single 120v 20A circuit. Main panel is 100A and full, feeds a nearly full 60A sub. 200A upgrade will require new underground feeders. I think I could save some money/time adding separate service to garage and abandoning the house feed.
I've been reading up about utilities providing a dedicated meter for EV charging with night time EV rates and it sparked my interest. I'm going to email the village if this is even allowed first. I'd probably need 200A, separate panel to run 2x 40-50A chargers and maybe add maybe an electric heater too.
