Problem
Charge point operators and businesses that offer electric vehicle charging often juggle multiple disconnected systems for station management, billing, energy optimization, and network interoperability, leading to operational inefficiencies and higher costs.
Solution
Virta delivers an end‑to‑end software platform that consolidates charge point management, payments, roaming, and smart energy controls into a single cloud‑based suite. The Virta Hub CPMS provides real‑time monitoring, remote firmware updates, and unified administration for heterogeneous charger fleets. Integrated payment and invoicing modules automate driver billing and settlement across markets. Energy‑management tools balance load, apply time‑of‑use tariffs, and support grid services to reduce electricity expenses. Open APIs and standards‑based roaming (e.g., OCPI) enable seamless integration with third‑party services and expansion into new regions, allowing operators to scale profitably.
Target Audience
Primary customers are charge point operators, fleet managers, workplace and retail property owners, and utilities seeking a unified platform to run and monetize EV charging networks.
