Evolt Charging Selects AMPECO to Scale Its UK EV Charging Operations

Evolt Charging manages more than 10,000 charge points across the UK on behalf of its customers, collectively serving 400,000 EV drivers and processing over three million charging sessions annually. Their customers include leading EV charging networks like ChargePlace Scotland, the country’s national network, making Evolt one of the most operationally complete and advanced EV charging businesses in the UK.

Today, we’re pleased to share that Evolt Charging has selected AMPECO’s EV charging management platform to power e.Connect+ — the next generation of its e.Connect network management software, delivering greater functionality, scalability, and performance for charging network operators and B2B clients across the UK.

A Full-Service Business Built on Quality

Since Justin Meyer set up SWARCO’s EV charging division in 2010, Evolt Charging has grown into a business that covers every stage of the charging lifecycle. From site design and consultancy through to hardware supply, installation, network management software, and 24/7 driver support. Evolt takes full accountability for the charging networks it manages.

Behind that breadth is a deliberate approach to service quality, backed by a team of industry-qualified engineers and support staff. It is a people-first operation, and every technology decision the company makes is judged against a straightforward question: does this make our people more effective at delivering value to our clients? That question drove the decision to choose AMPECO.

An Inflection Point and an Evaluation With a Clear Outcome

Fifteen years of sustained growth bring new demands. Evolt Charging today serves public sector networks, charge point operators, commercial fleets, transport hubs, and B2B clients — each with different operating models, system integration requirements, and expectations of the platform. Meeting all of them simultaneously, at the reliability standard the company has built its reputation on, called for a significantly more capable software foundation. UK operators face growing pressure to differentiate on software — moving beyond hardware deployment into fleet management, smart charging, EV drivers and B2B services.

“After 15 years supporting the UK EV market, we’ve seen the expectations placed on charging solution providers increase significantly. Our business offers a wide range of innovative charging solutions and services which provide specific functionality for the different strategic market sectors we serve. That diversity is one of our key strengths, but it demands a platform capable of accommodating different operating models and system integration requirements simultaneously.”

Evolt led a comprehensive market evaluation with exacting criteria: out-of-the-box platform depth, hardware compatibility, a flexible API architecture, long-term development capability, EV charging domain expertise, and a clear shared vision for the platform’s direction. AMPECO’s combination of platform capabilities and track record made the case compellingly.

“AMPECO stood out as the clear partner for us, demonstrating the technical depth and long-term development capability aligned with how our business, our customers’ needs, and the wider market are evolving. This is the platform we need to support the next stage of our growth.”

AMPECO’s experience across 190+ charging network operators in 70+ markets brings deep familiarity with the operational complexity Evolt manages — and the technology partnership enterprise operators require. As a pure-play software company, AMPECO’s sole focus is on improving the platform. Not just a vendor, but a technology partner with the domain expertise to work alongside Evolt’s team long-term.

A Platform to Run On — and an API to Build With

The strategic case was clear. For Terry Fowles, Head of Software Engineering at Evolt Charging, the selection came down to an impressive strength: AMPECO’s API architecture — and what it makes possible for his team.

“A strong developer experience and an API-first platform are what allow us to integrate new capabilities at pace and keep meeting evolving customer and stakeholder expectations.”

That flexibility is central to how Evolt Charging is approaching e.Connect+. AMPECO delivers the operational foundation that a network of this scale and complexity requires — from charge point connectivity, billing, and payment infrastructure to driver experience, real-time monitoring, and regulatory compliance. Where Evolt’s B2B clients need capabilities specific to their operations, AMPECO’s API gives Evolt’s engineering team the freedom to extend and customize: bespoke dashboards, a branded client portal, and advanced reporting tailored to how each individual network runs.

The platform’s hardware-agnostic approach supports the variety of Evolt’s charge point portfolio without locking in a hardware vendor. Dynamic load management gives depot and commercial environments the control they need. Multi-operator setup lets the company manage distinct client networks within a single platform instance.

Over the past year, AMPECO has embedded AI across its own engineering and support operations. That capability is now part of the platform Evolt will run on — automated session diagnostics, real-time fault detection, root cause analysis, authorization tracing, and fleet-wide pattern recognition. For a network processing three million sessions a year, that means one-click diagnosis instead of manual cross-referencing — and issues surfaced before they reach a driver.

AMPECO’s weekly product release cadence means e.Connect+ isn’t a static build: features shaped by operator feedback worldwide ship continuously. On top of that, Evolt’s engineering team can extend the platform independently — using the API layer without waiting on AMPECO’s roadmap. That combination — deep integration, a platform that adapts to the operator’s business, and a commitment to long-term collaboration — is how AMPECO works with operators at this scale.

New Markets, Stronger Propositions

With e.Connect+ powered by AMPECO, Evolt Charging enters the next phase with the software infrastructure to serve each segment on its own terms — public networks, charge point operators, B2B clients, depot operators, and everything in between.

The heavy-duty charging sector — bus depots, e-truck corridors, and large-scale commercial fleets — demands advanced load management and real-time operational data that Evolt can now reliably deliver. Existing B2B clients who already rely on Evolt for hardware, installation, and maintenance now have a compelling reason to consolidate their software layer under the same roof.

For Evolt’s operations and support teams, the platform change means better visibility at every stage — from real-time charge point health to faster issue resolution across the network.

“It is a great honour to support Evolt, a leader in the UK’s EV charging space. Working with such an experienced operator helps us stay laser-focused on solving the pain points of large-scale providers and developing features with a real impact at scale. At AMPECO, we provide more than just a solid platform with industry-leading security and reliability; we empower Evolt to enhance and customize our technology with the unique selling points they need to stay ahead of the competition.”

With AMPECO as its platform foundation, Evolt Charging will bring the same operational standard it has built in public charging to the fleet, heavy-duty, and commercial sectors — and deepen the technology-led services it offers to network operators across the UK.
