Democratizing access to electric vehicle charging points
Making it possible for everyone to buy and sell electricity from each other can help democratize how electric vehicles recharge, making these green cars more accessible to all drivers. Solutions include making charging points more widely available, including a mobile app that allows users to easily pay and manage electric credit, as well as determine where the closest and available charge station is located.
Start-up Meshcrafts was born out of a student enterprise project with founders from the Norwegian University of Life Sciences and the University of Oslo. The company aims to democratize access to EV (electric vehicle) charging points, allowing drivers to charge their vehicles with minimal hassle, using smartphone apps to access energy with easy payment options.
