Wallbox and Enode make smart charging easier to build at scale
Energy companies can connect Wallbox chargers to smart charging, home energy and flexibility services through Enode, backed by close collaboration between the Wallbox and Enode teams.
Your customers already have EV chargers at home. Increasingly, those chargers are becoming part of a wider energy service: charging when electricity is cheaper, making better use of energy produced at home and responding when the grid needs flexibility.
Making those experiences work across a growing number of charger brands starts with reliable connectivity.
That’s where Wallbox and Enode work together.
Bring Wallbox chargers into your energy services
Wallbox chargers are available through Enode’s Energy Orchestration Platform. This gives you one way to connect and control Wallbox chargers alongside EVs, batteries, solar and heating from hundreds of other brands.
With Wallbox chargers connected through Enode, you can build services around how and when EVs charge. Shift charging to cheaper hours on a dynamic tariff. Coordinate charging with solar and other devices in the home. Bring Wallbox chargers into flexibility programs alongside other connected devices.
Your team can focus on the energy product and customer experience instead of building and maintaining the underlying device connection.
For Wallbox owners, this opens up more ways for their charger to work with the energy services they use, from smarter charging around electricity prices to participating in flexibility programs through their energy provider.
“At Wallbox, we believe the future of EV charging is intelligent, connected and integrated into the broader energy system. Our work with Enode makes it easier for users to connect their Wallbox charger with the apps and services they already use, helping them charge more efficiently and take greater control of their energy use.”
One reliable integration, built to last
Connecting a charger is the starting point. Keeping that connection reliable as products change and energy services become more advanced requires ongoing work.
Wallbox and Enode work directly together on the underlying connectivity. As Wallbox products develop, the teams can work together to maintain the connection and support the capabilities energy companies need.
That becomes increasingly important as smart charging moves into more demanding use cases. A charging schedule needs current device data to make good decisions. A flexibility program needs chargers to respond when called on. And when you build across many device brands, you need connections you can rely on.
“Reliable connectivity is what turns a connected charger into something energy companies can build around. Working directly with Wallbox helps us keep improving that connection as their products evolve, so energy companies can bring Wallbox chargers into smart charging and flexibility services with confidence.”
Building smarter charging around the devices customers already own
EV adoption is putting more flexible electricity demand into customers’ homes. For energy companies, the opportunity is to coordinate that demand in ways that work for customers, their portfolios and the grid.
Doing that across the market means working with the devices people have already chosen.
By connecting Wallbox chargers through Enode, you can include more customers in smart charging and flexibility services while building on the same platform you use for other energy devices.
For Wallbox, that means its chargers can play a growing role in the energy services its customers choose to use.
