Future proof your EV fleet

Our fleet solution isn’t just aimed at helping fleet managers deal with today’s challenges, but also solving the future challenges that come with mass EV adoption. We’ll help your fleet benefit from the innovation of co-charging, or driveway sharing, and enable the charging of privately owned vehicles. Fleets can also access revenue generating flexibility markets so your vehicles can earn money whilst they’re parked overnight, as well as solving the transition for homes with pre-payment meters.

  • Co-charging initiatives to cater for employees without private parking.
  • Provide at-home charging solutions for employees’ privately-owned EVs
  • Generate revenue from your fleet through the flexibility markets.
  • Solve the additional challenge for employees with pre-payment meters.

    Fleet EV Charging FAQs

    Whether your drivers charge at home, in public, or at work, your business can be invoiced for your fleet’s entire usage in one fixed monthly bill. We also provide expert support in tariff management, helping you find the best deal with energy suppliers.

    If an employee has had a home EV charger installed but then decides to leave the company, there are two options available. If the employee wishes to retain the charger, they have the opportunity to purchase it. Alternatively, if they decide not to buy the charger, we will remove it (making good the installation) and repurpose it for another employee.

    Our integrated software platform gives you complete control and full visibility of your EV estate, so you can easily track, monitor, and report the charging behaviours of your drivers. Using the app, you can also conveniently check the status of each charger in your estate, whilst our advanced monitoring and reporting features offer the valuable insights you need to make well-informed decisions.

    Our integrated platform enables you to put your entire fleet on one single bill. Whether your drivers charge at home, in public, or at work, your business can be invoiced for your fleet’s entire usage in one fixed monthly bill, that means both your drivers and back-office will never again have to face the burden of ‘pay and reclaim’ forms.

    Using a toggle feature, drivers can simply indicate the vehicle they are charging, (whether a privately owned EV or your fleet EV). Users can then access detailed charge history and vehicle telematics data, ensuring accurate identification of the charging vehicle and associated costs. As technology progresses, advancements like seamless authentication features such as Plug and Charge will be incorporated into Open Charge Point Protocol (OCPP) chargers, removing the need for drivers to identify the vehicle.
