Smart charging can remove a key barrier to mass EV adoption

By Michelle Froese | February 27, 2024

EV charging technology company HeyCharge is announcing an end to unreliable smart EV charging, removing the last significant barrier to the global growth of electric vehicles.

Unlike current smart EV charging, HeyCharge is enabling charging without an internet connection for both the charger and the user through entirely local, cryptographic communication. The company’s technology creates a 100% reliable EV charging universe free of no-to-low connectivity and network provider downtime.

“Before HeyCharge, smart EV chargers provided a frustrating user experience in low or no internet connectivity environments,” said Chris Cardé, HeyCharge CEO. “Our mission is mass EV inclusivity, which means EV charging needs to be reliable everywhere from lower level parking garages to remote regions. We’re excited to lead the no-internet EV charging revolution.”

The HeyCharge technology is hardware agnostic — meaning that EV charging sites can deliver internet-free, reliable service in HeyCharge branded chargers, or installed inside EV chargers manufactured by other companies.

“HeyCharge ‘inside’ significantly reduces cost for hardware, installations and maintenance and provides the best user experience available on the market today,” said Robert Lasowski, chief business development officer at HeyCharge.

HeyCharge was founded in 2020 by former Google technologist Chris Cardé (now HeyCharge’s CEO) along with the company’s chief business development officer, Robert Lasowski. Lasowski was formerly with the R&D and innovation teams at BMW Group, Sixt and Munich Re Group.

The company is headquartered in Munich, Germany with offices located in the United States and engineering in the Ukraine.
