Pacific Energy - Charge EV Mobile App MVP

Client: Pacific Energy is a hybrid power system company guided by a mission to bring innovative power generation solutions to market, that accelerate the adoption of clean and sustainable commercial and industrial operations

Location: California, USA

How relationship started: Many EV adopters found themselves navigating a maze of isolated charging stations, and the looming threat of running out of power in areas without immediate access to these stations was all too real. Upon this backdrop, we collaborated closely with Pacific Energy in an exhaustive Discovery phase. Our combined objective was clear: to comprehend the current market infrastructure, pinpoint its gaps, and align with Pacific Energy's forward-thinking vision. This platform's pivotal feature was its ability to manage Pacific Energy's fleet of power trucks, which were essentially mobile charging stations on wheels. Through the app, users could effortlessly locate the nearest power truck, view its charging capacity and status, and arrange on-the-spot charging

Challenge: Integrating real-time data from various sources and ensuring a consistent, secure, and scalable user experience across both applications for balancing the needs of diverse users, from EV owners to fleet managers

Services: Discovery phase, Solution implementation, Cloud & DevOps expertise, Full-stack engineering Mobile and Web Development, Testing Services
