About the project:

Electric Miles is a cleantech company developing the world’s most intelligent
Internet of Energy (IoE) electric vehicle charging solution.
We connect EV and home batteries with the best computer intelligence to help users
save energy costs, be more efficient, and reduce overall energy.
Using the power of artificial intelligence and machine learning, our platform selects the most intelligent charging schedule combining low tariffs, vehicle journey needs, and a low carbon footprint, and automatically initiates and terminates vehicle charging to reduce user inefficiency that drives up costs.
The National Grid is facing increasing and significant stress due to the massive electrification of our transportation fleets. The various grid companies offer flexibility contracts to demand side aggregators such as Electric Miles to solve this problem.

Why join the fastest growing EV startup

Motoring is on the verge of a massive transformation.

By 2030 it’s estimated that there will be nine million electric vehicles –EVs on the UK’s roads. Charging them will put a significant strain on the National Grid
It’s predicted peak demand will increase by about a third. It’s critical we manage EV charging to protect the Grid from an electricity crisis.

From June 2022, the UK government has mandated that every charger sold must be Smart and pre-set to not charge at peak time, Charger Manufacturers will have to comply or face hefty fines. In the midst of this change – the EV driver is left confused, inundated with apps that still don’t fundamentally solve their problem.

Electric Miles is uniquely positioned to take advantage of this revolution. Come join us to solve one of the greatest challenges this decade. We have signed contracts for over 50,000 chargers on our platform in the next 3 years. We have a great team of 15 with vast experience and expertise in Energy, Software, and Venture Building. We are a member of the government’s EV task force and we won an award for being the most innovative EV product in the UK. As a result, we are in a great place to be the leader in SMART charging and Grid flexibility Management not just in the UK but across the world.

We recently closed our Seed funding round with 3 rounds previously closed and have growth projections to have 500k users globally to help scale EV charging.
