Eneliver Introduces New Public Sharing Feature for Personal EV Chargers

Eneliver's Public Sharing Feature for EV Chargers

Eneliver Inc., headquartered in Shinjuku, Tokyo, has recently unveiled an innovative feature called “Public Sharing,” which enables EV charger owners to share their charging stations with the general public. This functionality not only helps owners earn some revenue but also significantly contributes to the expansion of EV charging infrastructure in Japan, pushing towards a more sustainable society.

Background and Objective

With the acceleration of EV adoption in Japan, the lack of public charging infrastructure has become a pressing social issue. Particularly in residential and office areas, having accessible charging stations directly influences user satisfaction and the region's convenience. Eneliver has been at the forefront of promoting EV charging solutions for residences and commercial facilities, and with the new Public Sharing feature, they aim to create a mechanism that allows existing assets to be shared within the community. This provides owners with revenue opportunities while enhancing convenience for users.

Key Features of the Public Sharing Functionality

1. Risk-Free Revenue Model
Owners can earn 75% of the charging revenue, with the remaining 25% serving as the platform usage fee. The profits are transferred quarterly to a designated account, with no initial setup or monthly fees required, ensuring a hassle-free experience for users.

2. Flexible Device Compatibility
Chargers purchased from Eneliver that are OCPP-compliant can typically be used, regardless of the manufacturer. For chargers that do not support OCPP, users can easily add the “Eneliver Controller” to transform their existing resources into OCPP-compatible devices, maximizing utility.

3. Simple Registration and Operation
There is no need for special hardware or additional construction; users can conveniently set up charging spots using the app and QR code stickers. Owners have the freedom to adjust availability schedules and charging fees on the app at any time.

4. Secure Support and Safety
Features such as pre-approval and messaging help prevent unauthorized usage or conflicts. With OCPP certification, the system also deters potential electricity theft. In the case of an issue, a customer support helpline is available all year round, ensuring peace of mind for users.

Use Cases and Benefits

- For Homeowners

Homeowners can optimize their parking spaces by sharing their chargers, thereby generating supplemental income.

- For Offices and Businesses

During weekdays when the charger may be underutilized, businesses can open up their charging facilities to the public, blending community engagement with monetization.

- For the Community

Local residents and visitors can easily find and reserve public chargers through the Eneliver app, as more convenient charging locations become available. This facilitates the growth of EV usage critical for realizing a decarbonized society.

The Future with Eneliver

Through the Public Sharing feature, they are committed to creating accessible and secure mechanisms for a larger number of owners and users, fostering local energy production and revitalization.
