Campgrounds & RV resorts

Full-hookup sites, upgraded into grid capacity.

Seasonal rigs stay connected for months and transient guests arrive expecting real charging. One GridLynQ build serves both: metered power for every stay, and dispatchable capacity from the rigs that never leave.

Where it fits

Seasonal loops, transient loops and full resorts.

Seasonal loops

Full-time and seasonal sites

Seasonal residents keep rigs connected month after month. Those batteries are the most predictable, enrollable capacity a campground owns.

Park profile

Typical size
60–300 seasonal sites on 30A/50A pedestals
Dwell time
Full season, many sites year-round
Service upgrade
Loop-level load management before new feeders

What we install

  • 50A pedestal retrofits with V2G-ready bidirectional units on long-term loops
  • Per-site submetering so electricity stops being buried in the seasonal rate
  • Load management that protects your service as more rigs electrify
  • Enrollment in utility demand-response for the sites that stay put

Seasonal loops are usually phase one — the same rigs are connected long enough to make dispatch predictable.

Transient loops

Transient and overnight loops

Guests arrive in EV tow vehicles expecting real charging. Metered pedestals turn arrival peaks into billable revenue instead of an unrecovered cost.

Park profile

Typical size
40–200 transient sites with high arrival churn
Dwell time
1–7 nights, concentrated 3–8pm arrivals
Service upgrade
Managed charging usually avoids a service upgrade

What we install

  • Managed charging that flattens the evening arrival peak automatically
  • Reservation-linked billing so charging appears on the stay folio
  • Tow-vehicle and RV charging posts sized for mixed 30A/50A inventory
  • Availability data you can advertise to EV-towing guests at booking time

Transient loops most often justify themselves on metered charging revenue and booking advantage alone.

Resorts & parks

RV resorts, cabin parks and public campgrounds

Resorts with cabins, pools, laundry and offices set a real demand peak. A GridLynQ hub trims that peak and keeps critical systems alive during outages.

Park profile

Typical size
Mixed cabins plus 100–400 RV sites and amenity buildings
Dwell time
Season-long, with year-round amenity load
Service upgrade
Scoped alongside amenity and loop expansion plans

What we install

  • Demand-charge shaving against pool pumps, laundry, offices and cabin load
  • Outage support for water systems, bathhouses, gates and reservation systems
  • Phased loop-by-loop deployment so revenue funds the next section
  • Owner reporting on metered revenue, demand savings and resilience hours

Resorts typically pair one loop of bidirectional pedestals with amenity-side demand savings in the first phase.

What the host gets

You provide the site. We fund, build, own and stand behind the system.

GridLynQ does not sell equipment and walk away. We finance and install the system on the ground we energize, we operate it, and we carry full responsibility for battery performance and replacement. Agreement structure and commercial terms are walked through privately during your site assessment.

We fund and build it

GridLynQ pays for the equipment, the interconnection and the electrical work. There is no capital ask, no borrowing and no line item in your budget.

You earn from day one

The footprint we energize earns for the property from the moment the system is live, alongside a modernized electrical service you did not have to pay to build.

Performance is our obligation

GridLynQ stands behind battery performance against contracted capacity and availability targets. If a block underperforms, we make it right — not the host.

Replacement is our cost

Every cell, inverter and control system is ours to monitor, maintain and replace at end of life. Zero capital calls, zero disposal liability for the host.

Battery performance, safety monitoring, warranty administration and end-of-life replacement and recycling sit with GridLynQ. Agreement length, renewal structure and the rest of the commercial terms are reviewed with you directly, under confidentiality.

If the relationship doesn’t work — your exit terms

Host participation

We share the revenue — and reward you for growing battery capacity

GridLynQ funds, owns and maintains the equipment; the host earns from day one with no capital outlay. GridLynQ participates with the campground on grid revenue under a long-term host site agreement, and a portion of the upside from growing enrolled capacity flows back to your site customers.

You share in the grid revenue

As the host, you earn an ongoing share of the grid revenue the site produces — set out in your host agreement, not left to a forecast.

Growth is rewarded

The more enrolled battery capacity your own customers bring onto the property, the more the site — and you — earn.

Your customers see the benefit too

Hosts pass a meaningful portion of that upside back to boaters or guests, so growth pays them as well.

Aligned and auditable

Enrolled capacity and grid revenue are metered and reconciled, so what you're owed is always verifiable.

See the share rate, growth steps and discount pool

The share rate, growth thresholds and pass-through terms are set out in the host agreement. We walk campground owners through the full model — with your numbers in it — after your request is reviewed, under confidentiality.

  • Share rate schedule and the capacity thresholds that step it up
  • Pass-through mechanics that benefit your site customers
  • Full-term host cashflow modelled on your property

Fast charging as a service

Every project includes fast charging as a service, with bidirectional fast-charge service pedestals installed as part of the project — fast-charge rated and bidirectional, and sited on your highest-dwell docks, loops or bays. The pedestals are the revenue-facing edge of the site: your guests plug in, and the same hardware sells energy retail and sends it back for grid services.

  • • Installed, commissioned and maintained as part of the project — no host capex.
  • • Bidirectional, so charging revenue and grid revenue share one asset.
  • • Submetered per port, so charging income is reconciled with your statement.

Released with your tailored plan

  • • Number of fast-charge pedestals included at your property
  • • Siting and circuit layout — which docks, loops, racks or bays they land on
  • • Charge rate per pedestal and total installed fast-charge capacity

Pedestal count, siting and charge rate are engineered for your property and released with your tailored plan after your assessment request, under confidentiality.

Fast charging FAQ

What the fast-charging offer covers

The service pedestals are the part of the hub RV and EV guests actually touch. Here is how they are installed, paid for and maintained.

What is fast charging as a service?

Every project includes fast charging as a service, with bidirectional fast-charge service pedestals installed as part of the project — fast-charge rated and bidirectional, and sited on your highest-dwell docks, loops or bays. We own, install, commission and maintain the hardware, and RV and EV guests plug straight into it.

What does it cost me to install?

Nothing. The pedestals are installed as part of the project under the host lease — no host capex, no financing to arrange, and no equipment for your park crew to own or replace.

How do the pedestals make money for the site?

The same hardware works two ways: it sells energy retail to the vehicle or vessel plugged in, and it sends stored energy back for grid services. Both streams run through the host agreement, so charging income is not a separate deal to negotiate.

How is charging usage measured and reconciled?

Each port is submetered. Sessions are recorded per port and reconciled on your statement, so you can see exactly what was delivered, what was returned to the grid, and what it earned.

Are the pedestals bidirectional?

Yes. They are bidirectional by design, which is what lets a vehicle or vessel battery act as a grid resource while it sits parked or berthed instead of just drawing power.

Who maintains and services them?

We do, through certified electrician partners in your region. Servicing, firmware, parts and replacement over the life of the lease sit with us, not with the host.

How many pedestals go on my park, and where?

Pedestal count, siting and charge rate are engineered for your property, not quoted off a list. Pedestal count, siting and charge rate are engineered for your property and released with your tailored plan after your assessment request, under confidentiality.

Will they disrupt operations during install?

Trenching, conduit and foundations are staged around your season. We sequence the work with your park manager so RV and EV guests keep their access while the pedestals go in.
