The products

Six formats. One rule for every site.

Cars rest in different places for different lengths of time. A charger on a travel route has twenty minutes; a wallbox in an apartment garage has all night; a scooter rail on a promenade has the length of a coffee. IVVOA builds six formats so that the power, the price and the welcome match the place, and so that every one of them is unmistakably the same brand.

One rule

Power matched to how long people actually stay.

High power DC where the car has to be back on the road soon. AC where it will rest for hours. Compact points for two wheels where a car would not fit. The complimentary allowance, where screens and sponsors fund it, and the rate shown before plug-in work the same way at every format, and the four charger states look and read the same from a Hub screen to a Spark cap.

The charger family

Four pieces of hardware carry the whole network.

DC pillar
A slim graphite pillar about 1.8 meters tall, a tall portrait screen that shows a calm landscape between sessions, a thin burgundy strip down one edge, a small wordmark on the head, one cable in a side holster, and a card terminal so that no account is ever compulsory.
AC wallbox and pedestal
Graphite body, a small wordmark, a status light in the four brand states. In shared garages a burgundy stripe along the wall and white bay numbers on the floor; in the open, slim pedestals under a small solar carport.
Spark rail, post and dock
A graphite rail with a burgundy top for scooters and bicycles; a rounded post with a burgundy cap for mopeds and motorcycles; a dock of four to eight points on one supply and one foundation, under solar where there is a roof. Sockets carry vehicle pictograms, never numbers.
The canopy
Dark solar panels edge to edge, a burgundy fascia with the reversed wordmark, a cream soffit with recessed lights, a warm white edge line, one charger at the head of every bay.

The app and the card

One account across every format. Or no account at all.

Behind every IVVOA format sits one account: one identity, one wallet, one history, the allowance visible as it runs and the paid rate shown before it begins. A rider who charges a scooter at a Spark rail in the morning and a car at a Hub at the weekend uses the same app and the same card. And a bank card at the pillar works as well, so that no application is ever compulsory.

Clean energy you can see

Solar on every roof the site allows.

The solar roof is not only for the Hub. A small carport over a residential site, a run of panels along a fleet depot, a pergola over a Spark dock at a resort: wherever a site can carry one, it generates on the spot and shows where the clean energy comes from. Where it cannot cover a site’s demand, renewable sourcing covers the rest, where it is technically and commercially sound. Solar also opens doors. A landowner who would not host a row of chargers will often host a roof that earns its keep.

Charger status

Four states. Same colors, same words, everywhere.

Every charger, every screen and the map in the app show one of four states. You learn them once and read them from across a car park.

    Ready to plug in.

  • Charging

    A session is in progress.

    Your allowance is flowing. Nothing to pay yet.
