What matters for EV charging

  • Always reachable

    Payment and back-office calls need a steady connection at the charging site.

  • Enough data for updates

    Firmware and screen updates need more than a trickle of data.

  • See every charger

    Every charger’s SIM in one place in Control Centre, so you spot one that’s offline before a driver does.
