Start year: 2024

Summary: JET Charge has developed a Charging-as-a-Service (CaaS) model that solves the cost and complexity of EV charging for commercial fleets. By combining EV charging products and services into a simple subscription, fleets are provided with reliable access to charging in their commercial premises and employee homes under an OPEX model that aligns with their vehicle management and business operations. JET Charge’s approach draws on unparalleled experience from over 5,000 EV charging installations nationally, a 98% uptime maintenance solution, and testimony from fleet operators of all sizes on the potential for CaaS to enable EV deployment at scale. UTS will act as knowledge sharing partners, exploring the performance of the model and the behaviours of fleet operators and drivers.
