Fuuse is the first British EV charging software and services business to join ChargeUK, the leading trade association for charge point operators.
The software provider of choice for CPOs, Fuuse powers over 9,000 UK public chargers and handles over 10,000 driver calls each month through its 24/7 call centre. This will enable it to provide significant insights that will support ChargeUK to inform and drive policy to create a better charging experience for UK drivers.
Michael Gibson, Fuuse CEO, said: “We’re pleased to announce that Fuuse has joined ChargeUK as an associate member. Since launching in 2021, we have become the go-to software provider for many operators in the UK, including Be.EV, EV on the Move, Arnold Clark Charge, FOR EV and Scottish Power. As a UK company and a vital part of the EV charging supply chain, we look forward to working hand in hand with ChargeUK, using the data and analytics we’ve gathered over the years, to further support EV adoption and the move to a seamless charging experience.”
Vicky Read, CEO of ChargeUK, said: “Now with over 40 members spanning the whole charging ecosystem, from charge point operators to software and service providers, ChargeUK is truly the voice of EV charging and we are delighted to welcome Fuuse into the fold. The UK is at a critical point in the transition to electrification of transport, with over 86,000 charge points and 29% year-on-year growth in EV sales last month. The next steps towards going fully mainstream are all about ensuring fairness in affordability and ease of use for drivers, which innovative service providers like Fuuse are a core part of.”
The news comes as the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders’ September sales figures show that sales of electric cars grew 29% year-on-year and vehicles with a plug now account for over a third of all cars sold. As the market grows, more charge point operators are using cutting edge software and services, like Fuuse, to get the most from their charging infrastructure and meet the requirements of the UK government’s Public Charge Point Regulations.
