Pioneer believes that its use of SparkCharge’s equipment is poised to revolutionize the EV charging industry with a pioneering edge-to-grid EV charging hub concept, which Pioneer believes should set a new industry standard for speed and innovation, while lowering delivery costs. By boosting recharging efficiency, Pioneer aims to elevate customer reach and satisfaction, enabling the company to serve a growing customer base, which will drive up demand exponentially for additional e-Boost units to support this accelerating growth.
Leveraging Pioneer's expertise in energy distribution and microgrid solutions, this partnership is expected to introduce a first-of-its-kind, mobile Distributed Energy Resource (“mDER”) that enhances edge-to-grid capabilities. Pioneer anticipates that this mDER offering will be particularly impactful for large customers seeking long-term, affordable and sustainable energy resilience. Moreover, the benefits of this solution are expected to extend to rural, disadvantaged and disaster recovery communities, where reliable and resilient energy access is crucial. Pioneer believes this is a game-changing solution that will dramatically accelerate EV adoption timelines, thereby enabling customers to achieve sustainability goals with unprecedented ease.
Furthermore, e-Boost and SparkCharge are committed to driving innovation in the mobile EV charging sector, leveraging their combined expertise in IoT technologies, extensive EV charging datasets and advanced analytics. By harnessing these capabilities, they aim to design and develop products that are not only more effective and efficient but also more sustainable, which would set new standards for the industry.
