Company Overview

EV adoption continues to grow - but our power grid was not built to withstand this level of electricity demand, and charging remains a major challenge for drivers. With over 80% of EV charging occurring at home, ChargeScape was formed by some of the world's largest automakers (BMW, Ford, Honda, and Nissan - with more joining soon) with the mission to enable everyone to access sustainable, affordable energy from a reliable power grid.

ChargeScape's software platform serves as the connective tissue between EV drivers and power utilities, using cloud-based commands to schedule EV charging for the most grid-friendly, low-carbon hours, all while putting money back in drivers' wallets. Backed by a well-capitalized joint venture, we are expanding our engineering team to continue scaling our vehicle-grid integration platform and supporting new technical initiatives.
