PIONIX
PIONIX initiated EVerest, a user-friendly charging software solution which is developed, distributed, and maintained by a growing open source community.
The Problem
The EV charging software ecosystem is experiencing significant growth due to the global shift towards electric mobility.
​
However, the current EV charging ecosystem faces challenges in providing a seamless, standardized, holistic and user-friendly experience for EV owners. Multiple providers offer individual, patchwork solutions that lack interoperability. In order for the EV market to continue to grow and meet customer expectations, these challenges must be addressed.
The Solution
PIONIX solves these challenges with its open-source platform, EVerest, which provides a standardized and shared framework to facilitate a more cohesive charging experience. EVerest is a multifaceted software suite designed to operate charging stations and enable compatibility. By utilizing the Open Charge Point Protocol (OCPP), EVerest can seamlessly connect to existing Charging Point Operator (CPO) backends without being tied to specific hardware.
The Linux Foundation has recognized the company's innovative approach, positioning PIONIX as a key player in the evolving EV charging market.
