Evolt Charging has signed a new agreement with Austrian EV charging manufacturer KEBA to become its strategic service partner in the UK.

Under the new partnership Evolt will provide driver, host and field maintenance support for KEBA’s AC & DC charging stations deployed across the UK. 

The partnership builds on Evolt’s strategy to develop a manufacture-agnostic service model, enabling its service and maintenance team to support fleet operators and public charging networks.

Evolt’s nationwide service model is designed to provide a single, accountable service partner across charging infrastructure, “ensuring consistent performance and reducing operational complexity”, it said.

KEBA manufactures a range of AC and DC charging solutions used across commercial and fleet environments, including high-power systems designed for applications such as truck and bus depots.

The agreement reflects “the growing importance of experienced service partners that can support charging infrastructure over its full lifecycle, particularly as fleet electrification continues to scale across the UK”, the companies said.

Justin Meyer, Managing Director at Evolt Charging, said:

“As the EV market matures, operators are increasingly managing mixed estates of charging hardware. Our focus has been on building the capability to support that reality by investing in establishing the UKs largest fully dedicated call centre and field service teams in the EV charging sector, so that customers have a single, dependable service partner regardless of the equipment in place. Working with KEBA is a natural extension of that approach and we are excited about the partnership and where we can take it. 

“At the same time, continuity of service is critical. Charging infrastructure underpins day-to-day operations for many businesses, and our role is to make sure that support remains consistent, reliable and in place for the long term.”

Darren Gardner, Head of eMobility – Western Europe, at KEBA, said:

“Reliable service and maintenance are essential to ensuring charging infrastructure performs as expected over time. Evolt’s proven technical expertise, clear focus on ensuring charger uptime, supported by the significant investment they have made in their operations and processes, make them a strong partner as we support existing and future customers in the UK.”
