Blink and SemaConnect announce interoperability making EV Charging more accessible
Blink Charging Co., a leading owner, operator, and provider of electric vehicle (EV) charging equipment and services, and SemaConnect, a leading provider of EV solutions to the North American commercial market, announced the signing of an interoperability agreement. The two-year, renewable deal will commence in 2021.
Blink and SemaConnect customers will be able to seamlessly roam between charging networks without the need for additional cards or accounts. The agreement will serve to increase range confidence for Blink and SemaConnect members by expanding available charging infrastructure utilising the interoperability agreement, to more than 15,000 units, located at apartment buildings, workplaces, hospitals, universities, municipalities, and retailers. The interoperability between two leading EV charging providers will create a seamless charging experience for the companies' members.
“This is an important milestone for Blink,” said Brendan Jones, COO of Blink. “We have long advocated for the adoption of equipment and network interoperability to create a nationwide infrastructure of chargers that are more convenient and reliable for customers. We believe this partnership will be beneficial to our members and customers and we look forward to building on this collaboration to further expand our EV charging footprint.”
“We are excited to collaborate with Blink to bring more charging options to our customers and build a larger and more user-friendly network for EV drivers nationwide,” said Mahi Reddy, CEO of SemaConnect, Inc. “This is what we envisioned when we set out over a decade ago. To develop a national network of chargers where members are free to roam with one account.”
