Platform managing EV charging and VPP

Overview

Ev.energy builds software that makes EV charging cheaper and greener by coordinating when and how cars charge. Its platform connects with utilities, carmakers, and charging hardware to manage thousands of EVs as a single Virtual Power Plant, smoothing electricity demand to balance the grid and reduce expensive upgrades. For drivers, a mobile app automatically schedules charging for off-peak times and low-carbon energy, potentially cutting costs by a large amount. The system supports many car brands, chargers, and solar inverters, and can also enable Vehicle-to-Grid power flows. Ev.energy differentiates itself through a B2B2C approach with major partners like National Grid, Volkswagen, Siemens, and others, a focus on grid services and demand response, and features such as fleet management (Pando) and solar charging. The company’s goal is to decarbonize transport and the energy system by making charging cheaper, cleaner, and more reliable for utilities, fleets, and individual drivers.

Simplify's take

What believers are saying

  • October 2026 CEC funding doubled ChargeWise to $22 million for California expansion.
  • September 2026 Britain launch enrolled 10,000 flexible assets within days, proving consumer pull.
  • June 2026 Eve launch and 300,000-plus customers signal strong product-market expansion.

What critics are saying

  • California Phase 2 depends on partner matching funds; weak utility adoption kills 79,000-driver growth.
  • Charge & Earn economics depend on volatile wholesale markets; low-priced months compress driver payouts.
  • OEM and charger integrations create platform fragility; losing access to major vehicle APIs breaks enrollment.

What makes ev.energy unique

  • Eve orchestrates EVs, batteries, and solar across 55-plus programs in 2026.
  • Charge & Earn pays drivers monthly, not just utilities, creating two-sided market demand.
  • California CEC-backed ChargeWise spans utilities, CCAs, and disadvantaged communities through 2028.

ev.energy secures $11M to expand California EV charging programme to 79,000 drivers

ev.energy has secured $11M from the California Energy Commission (CEC) to expand ChargeWise, its managed EV charging program, from 9,000 drivers to 79,000 by the end of 2028. With partner funds matched by the CEC, the total budget is $22M. Most of the award is match funding for utilities, community choice aggregators, and other partners. It covers 50% of their user acquisition, incentive, and onboarding costs, while $1M goes to product development. ChargeWise shifts charging to cheaper, solar-rich hours using day-ahead market signals. In Phase 1, up to 98% of charging load was off-peak, and customers saved about $200 a year on average. Phase 2 requires at least 50% of enrolled drivers to live in disadvantaged communities.

ev.energy has launched Charge & Earn in Great Britain, a programme that pays drivers for flexible EV charging. The initiative has already enrolled more than 10,000 flexible assets trading in energy markets, with participants earning an average of £25 monthly for five charges per week. Drivers use the ev.energy app to connect their vehicle or charger and receive payment for eligible smart charges. The programme runs on Eve, the company's multi-DER orchestration platform deployed across 55-plus programmes in North America and Europe. Alongside the consumer offering, ev.energy introduced the Charge & Earn Network, enabling retailers, fleets and partners to earn from the flexibility their drivers supply. The platform connects to more than 80% of the European market through vehicle and charger integrations.

ev.energy launches Charge & Earn in Britain, with more than 10,000 flexible assets already enrolled. LONDON, ENGLAND, UNITED KINGDOM, September 3, 2026 / EINPresswire.com / - Charge & Earn pays drivers in Great Britain for every eligible smart charge, and the Charge & Earn Network extends the same value share to the retailers, fleets and partners who bring drivers onto the programme. ev.energy, the company behind Eve(TM), the full-lifecycle multi-DER orchestration platform, today launched Charge & Earn, a programme that rewards flexible EV charging in Great Britain. Drivers join through the ev.energy app, connect their vehicle or charger, and are paid for every eligible smart charge. Alongside the consumer programme, the company opened the Charge & Earn Network, giving businesses a route to earn from the flexibility their own drivers supply. Since going live, the programme has more than 10,000 flexible assets enrolled and trading in energy markets, with participants earning an average of £25 each month for 5 charges per week. Why the Grid Needs This Now Electrification is adding load and variability to the system at the same time. More EVs, more heat pumps, more batteries, and more renewable generation all increase the value of shifting demand away from periods of peak strain. Unlocking that flexibility at scale has typically meant asking consumers and businesses to change their behaviour, get to grips with complex energy markets, or settle for capped, low-value rewards. Charge & Earn is built to remove all three barriers, paying out real value on every eligible smart charge. Drivers plug in as normal. Eve does the work of shifting that charging to the times of day that create the most value for the grid, then shares that value back. Effortless, Open, and Rewarding by Design Charge & Earn is built around three principles. - Effortless. Drivers download the ev.energy app, connect their vehicle or charger, and are automatically enrolled in smart charging. There are no new habits or schedules to learn, and no compromise on being ready to drive when the car is needed. - Open to everyone. The programme is available to individuals and businesses alike, so anyone who can offer flexibility can take part. Eve connects to more than 80% of the European market through vehicle and charger integrations, so eligibility is not limited to a single OEM or a single piece of hardware. - Rewarding by design. The programme pays out on every eligible charge. The more a participant charges, and the more flexibility they supply, the more they earn. Charge & Earn runs end-to-end on Eve, ev.energy's multi-DER orchestration platform, deployed across 55+ programmes in North America and Europe. Charge & Earn Network: A Route to Revenue for Retailers, Fleets and Partners Alongside the consumer programme, ev.energy is launching the Charge & Earn Network for businesses. Retailers, fleets, charge point operators, and anyone managing EV charging on behalf of others can join the Network, enrol their users into Charge & Earn, and get paid for the flexibility they help bring onto the platform. Partners gain access to ev.energy's APIs and its driver network, giving them the full weight of the Charge & Earn proposition to offer their own customers, without building energy market expertise or settlement capability in-house. A Lower-Cost, Cleaner Grid for Everyone The more users enrolled in Charge & Earn, the more flexibility ev.energy can bring to the grid. That translates into savings for drivers, lower costs for the wider system, and headroom for more renewable generation to come onto the grid. "The grid needs flexibility, and EV charging is the biggest untapped source of it we have. Charge & Earn is effortless for drivers, open to everyone, and it pays out on every eligible charge, so participants are always better off. With the Charge & Earn Network, fleets and partners can now share in the value their drivers create. The more people who take part, the more we can unlock value for the grid, soak up renewables, and drive energy bills down." - Nick Woolley, CEO and Co-Founder of ev.energy What Happens Next ev.energy expects the flexible assets already trading to be the first step in a larger rollout, as more drivers, fleets, and partners join the Network. Every additional driver enrolled increases the flexibility available to the system, and with it the value that flows back to participants. The success with Charge & Earn sets the stage for Eve to bring additional devices into other markets and virtual power plant (VPP) programs in Europe and North America as the policy frameworks develop. Businesses interested in joining the Charge & Earn Network can find out more by contacting ev.energy. Drivers in Great Britain can check their eligibility and sign up on the Charge & Earn website. About ev.energy ev.energy is the company behind Eve, a B2B SaaS platform that manages EV charging and distributed energy resources for utilities, community choice aggregators, energy retailers, and fleet operators. Eve orchestrates EVs, batteries, and solar across the full program lifecycle, from regulatory-filing-ready business cases through customer enrollment and real-time dispatch to settlement-grade M&V.
