Mina and ev.energy have formed a new partnership to provide fleet operators and businesses with a smart charging solution for EVs at drivers’ homes.

The new service combines Mina’s payment technology with ev.energy’s home charging software.

Drivers using the Mina platform can already access their charging data through the Mina Driver Portal. Now, leveraging ev.energy’s technology to track energy usage at home, Mina can allow business drivers to automatically charge their company EVs when it’s cleanest and greenest according to the grid.

The new functionality includes the ability to track charging consumption, costs and carbon emissions,.

The partnership with ev.energy also provides Mina’s customers with the ability to access a holistic view of each driver’s charging data from the vehicle itself. Fleet managers are also said to benefit from market-leading insights into their vehicle charging behaviour.

Ashley Tate, CEO and co-founder of Min, said: “The partnership with ev.energy forms a key part of Mina’s connected car technology strategy. By combining data from multiple sources, Mina is able to provide customers with ultimate assurances in accuracy, fraud prevention and driver experience.”

More than 150 test users have already come forward to trial the early integration in February 2022 alongside the Indra Smart Pioneer. The service will be available to other fleets, small businesses, and sole traders from March 2022.
