Plug Me In Partners with Landis + Gyr
Overview
We’re excited to announce the selection of Landis+Gyr to support our commercial EV Charging offering, signing a contract for the provision of INCH Duo and INCH Pro charging stations.
Plug Me In Partners with Landis + Gyr
The chargers offer additional functionality to the Plug Me In range of AC chargers, with the option of tap and go card payment terminals. The new charging stations will be offered as part of Plug Me In’s comprehensive service package for business and fleet owners looking to make the switch to electric vehicles and offer seamless payment without the need for an app.
Plug Me In is at the forefront of commercial EV adoption, supporting forward-thinking business and fleet owners making the move to electric vehicles. The EV Charging range was selected based on durability, ergonomic properties, and broad integration possibilities including Contactless payment support. Integration with market leading EV charging management software, the package will provide insight into drivers’ charging habits, manage charge point access, enable tariff-setting and manage payment options, including contactless payments, to generate additional revenue.
To prepare for the rollout of the new offering, Plug Me In’s expert installation team undertook EV charger installation and configuration training with Landis + Gyr, understanding the charging station’s unique capabilities and specifications for seamless deployment.
The partnership is an evolution of Landis+Gyr’s existing relationship with Plug Me In’s umbrella company, Calisen Group. The relationship sees Landis+Gyr provide a flexible volume of SMETS2 (Smart Metering Equipment Technical Specifications Generation 2) smart meters to support independent UK energy suppliers through Calisen’s Meter Asset Provision services. The expanding partnership reflects the continued commercial adoption of electric vehicles as the UK phases out internal combustion engines ahead of the 2035 ban.
Of the partnership, Mark Coley, Head of Market Development comments: “It is an exciting opportunity for Landis+Gyr to support Plug Me In’s UK EV Charging ambitions through an extension of our existing metering partnership. The partnership provides Plug Me In’s installers access to a comprehensive portfolio of EV charger products enabling installation across workplace and fleet charging infrastructure needs. But most important is the possibility to really optimise use and deliver on ROI through high utilisation rate.”
Andrew Stead, Commercial Director for Plug Me In adds: “Landis+Gyr’s INCH Duo and INCH Pro charging stations are a strong addition to our commercial offering. With the increased ease of payments, these models offer an efficient option for business owners and fleets looking to commercialise their charging infrastructure, and help us make the entry into fleet electrification a seamless process with an attractive commercial proposition.”
