Revenue Streams
FlexStation allows retail developers and property owners to monetize unused parking areas with minimal disruption. Revenue models range from outright sales to long-term lease agreements or shared revenue partnerships. These flexible models ensure owners can maximize ROI while maintaining full control over how the stations integrate with their overall property strategy.
Drive Customer Attraction
Fueling and charging services make retail centers more than just shopping destinations they become convenience hubs. Customers are more likely to visit and stay longer when they can charge or refuel while shopping. This increased dwell time not only benefits anchor tenants but also creates a ripple effect of higher sales across the entire retail ecosystem.
Compact and Efficient Design
Unlike traditional stations that require extensive land allocation and underground infrastructure, FlexStation has no underground infrastructure, ideal for new real estate. With modular layouts, stations integrate seamlessly into existing or new property designs.
Rapid Installation with Minimal Disruption
Prefabricated construction ensures FlexStations are delivered to site fully tested and ready for assembly. This reduces installation time from months to weeks. For retail centers, this means minimal interference with shoppers, tenants, or traffic flow. Operators avoid the reputational risk and revenue loss that comes with prolonged construction projects.
Flexible
Configurations
FlexStation adapts to the specific size, traffic patterns, and energy demand of each property. Configurations can start small with four fueling positions and scale up as adoption of alternative fuels grows. Owners are never locked into a single design, giving them agility as customer behavior evolves.
Reduced Liability
and Risk
Above-ground tanks eliminate the risk of soil contamination associated with traditional fueling systems. Retail centers avoid exposure to costly remediation requirements and long-term legal liabilities. Elevated systems also mitigate risks in flood-prone or high water table regions, ensuring long-term site viability.
Strategic Advantages
Future-Ready
Energy Mix
Retail centers must anticipate the future of transportation. FlexStation provides the ability to dispense conventional fuels alongside hydrogen, biofuels, natural gas, LPG, and ultra-fast EV charging—all from a single platform. This flexibility allows retail centers to meet customer needs today while seamlessly evolving as the energy transition accelerates.
Centralized
Digital Intelligence
Every FlexStation can be equipped with integrated IT systems for remote monitoring, predictive maintenance, and fuel inventory management. Property owners or operators can manage entire networks from a central hub, gaining real-time insights into performance. This reduces staffing needs, improves efficiency, and ensures uninterrupted customer service.
Sustainability and
ESG Alignment
Retail centers are increasingly evaluated not only on financial performance but also on ESG commitments. FlexStation allows properties to demonstrate tangible action toward carbon reduction and sustainable mobility. By enabling EV adoption and offering low-carbon fuels, retail centers enhance their reputation with tenants, customers, and investors alike.

Safety is a defining feature of FlexStation. Each system is designed and manufactured to meet the strictest global HSSE standards. Built-in features include remote shutdown, modular containment, and globally certified tanks. This provides peace of mind for property owners, tenants, and customers while ensuring full regulatory compliance.

FlexStations are built to last more than 50 years, using stainless steel and galvanized structures engineered for strength and resilience. Modular components simplify service and extend lifespan, reducing long-term costs. Property owners can confidently invest in infrastructure that maintains reliability and value for decades.
Competitive Differentiation
Retail centers with integrated fueling and charging set themselves apart from conventional shopping complexes. By combining customer convenience, sustainability, and advanced technology, FlexStation-equipped properties become more attractive to tenants and more valuable to investors. This competitive edge positions retail centers as leaders in the next era of mixed-use development.
