Stupid question; If a CG is upgrading sites from 30 too 50 Amp, how much extra cost to also add capacity to charge EVs? Bet most have made/are making that change so I assume they have run the numbers and are betting the upcharge for site with upgraded power will pay off.

Electricity costs are negligible. It the cost to upgrade the electrical infrastructure that is going to make RV parks reluctant to fully embrace EVs. I would much rather miss some potential business than come out of pocket with $50,000 or more to upgrade the electrical system when there isn’t a clear need.

You missed the point of my question; A CG has 30 Amp sites, decides they want to have more of the 2 AC units stop instead of going down the road. If they are trenching, and pushing pipe to run the extra wire for the 50 AMP service to sites, how much extra money would it take to also put in charge ports?

I have no idea. It would require more service mains and I don’t know how much addition buying and wiring in charging ports would cost. But how many parks are there that are still 30 amp and also are planning on upgrading. I mean having 50 amp services has been pretty much the standard for several decades. If the haven’t already upgraded it is likely because they can’t due to either financial issues or the power just isn’t available. (More common than you think I’m rural locations).
