Problem
Public EV charging stations often charge 3–4 times the cost of residential electricity, and many suburban and rural areas lack sufficient public infrastructure, forcing drivers to plan trips around scarce, expensive charging options.
Solution
EdnaCharge operates a marketplace that links electric‑vehicle owners with residential charging stations. Drivers can view a real‑time map of nearby home chargers, compare prices, and instantly book a session, paying residential electricity rates instead of premium public rates. Homeowners list their chargers, set pricing and availability, and earn passive income while EdnaCharge handles reservations, payment processing, and insurance coverage. The platform’s real‑time availability data expands charging access in underserved areas and reduces overall charging costs for EV users.
Target Audience
Primary customers are EV drivers in suburban and rural regions seeking affordable charging, and residential homeowners who have existing Level 2 chargers and want to monetize idle capacity.
