Nissan Motor Company has teamed up with Daikyo Incorporated, one of Japan's largest condominium builders, to jointly develop an electric vehicle charging infrastructure targeted directly at condo dwellers. Nissan and Daikyo will immediately begin work on their "Demonstration Project for EV Charging Infrastructure in Condominium Buildings."

The project aims to discover the specific charging needs of condo dwellers. To that end, Nissan will provide the electric cars and chargers to condominium owners on a trial basis as it tries to analyze and address the potential charging problems that condo dwellers will face. Daikyo, for its part, will install charging units at its Lions Mansion Series condos, which are scheduled for construction next April. We suspect that many condo and apartment dwellers will be interested in the results gleaned from this project, so we'll be sure to keep you up to date when announcements are made.
