Company profile
researched Aug 2026ev.energy provides software for orchestrating distributed energy resources — electric vehicles, home solar and batteries. Its business-facing product, Eve, is sold to utilities and energy retailers to run flexibility programs across the full program lifecycle, from passive customer nudges through to vehicle-to-grid (V2G), and is designed to layer over a utility's existing systems. The company states 55+ live programs across North America and Europe.
On the consumer side, ev.energy offers a mobile app for EV drivers and solar and battery owners that coordinates home energy use so participants can lower bills and earn program rewards. The app schedules home charging into off-peak periods based on a user-set ready-by time, supports solar-matched charging using self-generated power, provides a Boost override for immediate charging, tracks cost, consumption and carbon impact per session, and awards reward points redeemable for gift cards and carbon-offset charging. It works with compatible smart home chargers, and with Tesla and selected connected vehicles (including VW excluding the ID series, Audi, BMW, Jaguar, Renault, SEAT, Skoda excluding Enyaq, Porsche, Mini and Volvo) without additional hardware. The consumer proposition is available in the US, UK and Europe. The platform holds SOC 2 and IEEE 2030.5 CSIP certification.
Business model
Two-sided offering: a platform sold to utilities and energy retailers for deploying and operating DER flexibility programs, and a free consumer app with in-app purchases through which enrolled EV drivers and solar/battery owners participate in those programs and earn rewards.
Traction
