The ChargePoint Network is much more than a network of charging stations. Together with its complementary services, 365 Energy combines the interests of everyone involved into creating one single all-encompassing solution. This solution allows for the emergence of innovative business models:
- Hybrid and other plug-in vehicle owners are given easy access to a broad network of charging stations. These ChargePoints, installed in public and private parking lots, make it easy for vehicles to plug in once they are parked. While the driver is working or shopping, the vehicle’s battery is being charged. Access is managed by personal RFID cards that ensure safe and easy service. Users can request new charging stations through a subscriber portal and locate available stations.
- Communities are offered an exciting and, until now, unheard of business model. The ChargePoint Network provides a revenue stream for Communities who invest in the deployment of a charging station infrastructure. This is fundamental for a sustainable investment in green technology to met environmental goals.
- Electricity Providers: A comprehensive remote surveillance system allows for cost effective management of the ChargePoint Network and management of the electricity grid. All stations are bi-directional, hence ready for vehicle to grid services.
- Automotive Industry: A rapidly developing charging station infrastructure facilitates and sustains a parallel and simultaneous growth of the electric vehicle market.
- Government Officials: The ChargePoint Network provides accurate data which can be used by public authorities to compensate for lost revenue due to reduced motor vehicle taxes when electricity replaces the more conventional fuels such as gasoline and diesel fuel.
