UK parking services provider Parkopedia and Canadian EV roaming hub operator ChargeHub will integrate ChargeHub’s network of 80,000 charging stations in the US and Canada into Parkopedia’s Payment Platform. This will enable charger activations and payments by means of a single sign-on account on participating charge site operators.
The collaboration is designed to address the challenge of locating chargers, an issue of concern to 92% of US EV drivers, according to the Parkopedia 2023 Global Driver Survey. It also aims to provide drivers with combined parking and charging data to improve their charging experience and limit the risk of receiving parking fines while charging.
“North American drivers can now benefit from a streamlined charging experience with access to an additional 80,000 chargers in key locations, combined with frictionless transactions, addressing the main pain points highlighted by EV drivers in our 2023 Global Driver Survey,” said Hans Puvogel, Parkopedia COO.
