Swarco eVolt has launched E.Connect, an electric vehicle recharging network for eVolt and third-party manufactured charging across the UK and Europe.

The location and live status of all charging points can be viewed online or via an app, which also includes a journey planner feature.

Reporting tools include environmental impact statistics, such as comparative national data on carbon emissions.

Justin Meyer, general manager at Swarco eVolt, said: “The advanced reporting tools available will give owners accurate and insightful data on the environmental impact of the charging points.”

EV drivers can join Swarco E.Connect for free online or via the mobile app store, or purchase an RFID access card for £10.

Charge point owners can integrate E.Connect into existing parking management systems and can also incorporate fault management processes so that any historic technical issues with the charge points can be viewed.
