EV Connect begins partner program for EV charging station deployment

EV Connect has announced a new partner program that it says will simplify charge station deployment, improve the ownership experience for site owners and ensure both charge station and charging network interoperability, as well as enhance the EV driver experience.

The company says the program is the industry’s first and most comprehensive integrated hardware-software partner program for EV charging, and is designed to fortify technical, business, and support relationships with charging station manufacturers. Additionally, the program aims to bundle turnkey EV charging solutions into comprehensive offerings that simplify the selling, buying and management process of EV charging for drivers and site owners. Industry leaders BTCPower, EVBox, and EVoCharge are premier partners of the program.

Through the new EV Connect Manufacturer Portal, the company says manufacturers can now view their charging stations’ performance and health from a central dashboard. The Manufacturer Portal also gives insights into deployed products by pulling field data back into manufacturers’ respective engineering cycles on an ongoing basis. With technical training on charging stations, the company says hardware partners allow EV Connect’s support team to review diagnostics and performance data, triage problems remotely, and ensure optimum station uptime.

Class 8 orders strong in February

Even when seasonally adjusted, ACT says preliminary order numbers for February are up 5% over January.

ACT-Class-8-Feb-truck-orders

According to the latest numbers from ACT Research, preliminary North America Class 8 net orders were 27,700 units, up 600 units from January and 16% from a year ago. With the fourth-largest seasonal factor of the year at 8%, seasonal adjustment reduces February’s Class 8 intake to 25,600 units, up 5% from January.

“Weak freight and carrier profitability fundamentals, and large carriers guiding to lower capex in 2024, would imply pressure in U.S. tractor, the North American Class 8 market’s largest segment,” said Kenny Vieth, ACT’s president and senior analyst. “While we do not yet have the underlying detail for February order volumes, Class 8 demand continuing at high levels again this month suggests that U.S. buyers continue as strong market participants.”
