Voltric announces charging partnership with Paua

EV subscription firm Voltric has teamed up with Paua to offer its customers access to 20,000 chargepoints across the UK.

Voltric announces the partnership following a 12-month trial with current driver-subscribers who have been using Paua’s single charging card and app platform to access the UK’s largest roaming network of over 20,000 charge point connectors across 20 different networks in one card.

All new Voltric EV drivers will now receive a Voltric charge card powered by Paua with their car and they will use the card to locate, access and pay for their EV charging on a pay-as-you-go basis.

Commenting, Voltric CEO and founder, Julian Mensah said; “It’s great working alongside our friends at Paua – they are the rockstars of the fast-growing EV charging market. Our whole promise to drivers is to put more EVs on the road, protect our environment and simplify how we drive.”

Niall Riddell, founder and CEO of Paua, said: “Voltric and Paua is a great partnership as together we can offer drivers everything, they need to drive electric.

“We are committed to ensuring all electricity used with our network partners is 100% renewable and therefore assure zero emissions giving Voltric customers peace of mind and an easy way to access the UK’s biggest network of public charging points.”

South Wales-based Voltric and Essex-based Paua are alumni of Tech Nation’s Libra 1.0 and Net Zero 2.0, programmes for tech companies and leaders. Gerard Grech, Founding Chief Executive of Tech Nation commenting on the announcement said: “Both Voltric and Paua are great examples of the tech businesses we support through our start-up, growth and scale-up programmes.

“The Tech Nation community shows that working together to innovate produces collaboration which leads to great partnerships such as this one. I wish both Julian and Niall well in this next chapter of growth.”
