Problem
Electric vehicle (EV) owners often face challenges in finding available charging stations, especially in residential areas or when traveling. Existing public charging infrastructure may be insufficient or inconvenient, leading to range anxiety and hindering EV adoption.
Solution
Watt Share provides a platform that connects EV owners who have private chargers with other EV drivers seeking charging options. Hosts can list their chargers on the platform, specifying availability, pricing, and charger details. Chargees can then search for and book charging sessions at nearby private chargers through the Watt Share application. The platform handles reservations and payments, simplifying the charging process for both hosts and chargees. By enabling shared EV charging, Watt Share increases charging accessibility and promotes wider EV adoption.
Target Audience
The primary users are EV owners who want to earn money by sharing their home chargers (hosts) and EV drivers who need convenient access to charging stations (chargees).
