New entrant Charge2Go opens up the EV charging market by facilitating public access to private chargers everywhere.

As EV enthusiasts, the founders of Charge2Go got tired of hearing stories of EV owners suffering range anxiety due to the lack of charging infrastructure. After all, electric vehicles are selling like hot cakes: driven by a lack of global supply and high consumer demand and motivated by a renewable energy future, high petrol prices, and government incentives.

The Charge2Go platform is a service that allows businesses or individuals who own or have access to a charger to list their charger on the platform, and specify when it’s available and how much they want to receive for the service. It also allows them to promote their location, products, or other services in the vicinity so they can create an ecosystem around the charging location to attract people to use it.

As more consumers choose an EV, the strain on the EV charging network will intensify. Federal and state governments have recognised this and started rolling out grants and policies to encourage development of a world-class charging network. However, the founders of Charge2Go believe this will still not be enough.

Imagine taking the family on an Easter road trip in your shiny new EV, the kids are hungry and tired as you pull into an en-route charging parking lot joining scores of other EV owners waiting in a queue. You then wait anywhere from 15 mins to an hour to charge while you try to entertain the family. Oh the joy! At Charge2Go, we believe the experience matters the most.
