Paua and Powerverse partner to simplify home EV charging for fleets

By Eve

Paua, a UK EV charging payment platform for businesses, has partnered with Powerverse to give its customers access to Powerverse's network of compatible home chargers and installation services. Through Powerverse, Paua can now support home charging reimbursement for a wider range of charge points, including Cord, WaEV, KEBA, Injet, Teltonika, go-e, Sevadis, Garo, Stevie and EVTEC. The partnership, reported on 9 November 2026, combines Powerverse's charger sourcing, installation and connected energy platform with Paua's fleet payment and reimbursement technology.

Why it matters

Fleet managers may need to install equipment in hundreds or thousands of homes while collecting reliable charging data and reimbursing drivers, so a single route covering hardware, installation and reimbursement could reduce administrative load. For procurement teams and CPOs, the wider list of supported charge point brands may also widen the hardware choices available for home charging programmes.

Openreach and Allstar expand home, public and shared depot charging for 7,000 electric vans

Openreach has partnered with EV payment specialist Allstar to widen charging access for its 7,000-strong electric van fleet, where around one in three engineers cannot charge at home. Allstar Homecharge pays work-related home charging costs directly to drivers' energy suppliers, while public charging is being concentrated through fewer strategic charge point operators and Allstar Co-Pilot helps engineers find approved locations. The partnership is also developing commercial and shared depot access through partners including First Charge and Voltempo, offering larger bays, high-speed charging and bookable slots payable with existing cards such as Allstar Chargepass.

Why it matters

A large UK fleet is consolidating public charging onto fewer operators and seeking depot sites with larger bays and bookable high-speed charging, which signals what fleet buyers will favour in procurement. Operators serving commercial vehicles with card-based payment and booking have a clear route into this demand.

TellusPower and Zūm deploy bidirectional chargers for US electric school bus fleets

TellusPower is supplying bidirectional chargers to transportation-as-a-service startup Zūm, which is credited with deploying the first fully electric school bus fleet in the US, a 75-strong fleet in Oakland Unified School District for the 2024 to 25 school year. A more recent project with San Francisco Unified School District uses the same hardware, which Zūm white-labels. TellusPower CEO Mike Calise told EV Infrastructure News that the chargers act as a "power router", linking idle bus batteries with the grid, buildings and battery storage for up to 5MW of theoretical cumulative capacity.

Why it matters

Fleets with fixed duty cycles, such as school buses and refuse trucks, are being positioned as dispatchable energy assets, which could change how depots are specified and how bidirectional hardware is procured. The white-label arrangement also shows hardware vendors reaching the market through fleet service providers rather than selling direct.

Moto reports 96% customer satisfaction across its motorway services network

Independent research found satisfaction across Moto's network reached 96%, up from 94% in 2023 and 93% in 2022, while 95% of all visitors to motorway services were fairly or very satisfied. Five Moto sites (Rugby, Sawtry, Kinross, Pease Pottage and Donington Park) scored 99%, and the lowest scoring sites reached 90%. Moto CEO Ken McMeikan said the company has invested more than £260 million in its services over the last five to six years.

Why it matters

Motorway service areas are key host locations for rapid and ultra rapid charging, and sustained operator investment in site quality shapes the dwell experience that charge point operators rely on. The figures give procurement teams a benchmark when assessing host partners, though the excerpt provided does not detail the charging element.
