This week at the London EV Show, Dan Street, our Country Business Manager for the UK & Ireland, discussed one of the biggest challenges in the electric vehicle (EV) industry: ensuring a seamless charging experience for drivers.
As the EV market grows, the ease of charging is crucial to widespread adoption. Roaming, which allows access to multiple charging networks with a single subscription, is a game changer. Dan’s presentation explored how roaming is reshaping the EV charging landscape. It removes barriers that complicate the charging process, especially when crossing borders or networks.
A key topic was the difference between peer-to-peer and platform-based roaming models. Both models impact the future of EV charging, but they differ in user experience, interoperability, and their role in services like Plug & Charge. Dan shared insights on how these models influence the rollout of charging infrastructure. They also impact the ability to offer a seamless charging experience across networks.
At Gireve, we are proud to lead this transformation. With over 556,000 charge points connected across 35 countries, we enable interoperability and improve the EV charging experience. Our services range from consulting to clearing, and we actively advance solutions like Plug & Charge to ensure a frictionless experience for all users.
