Actavo Strengthens Electric Vehicle Charging Offering

Dublin-based Actavo has expanded its offering in the electric vehicle (EV) charging market with a brand new division.

The international infrastructure operations partner has launched Actavo HomeCharge, its first-ever direct-to-consumer offering which specialises in the installation of electric vehicle (EV) chargers in homes.

The new service is available to customers nationwide and leverages Actavo's over 40 years of experience in managing In-Home installations for leading brands, as well as its expertise in installing EV charge points in Ireland and the UK.

All of the chargers offered by the company are smart EV chargers, which allow consumers to manage their car charging from a mobile app and avail of the best tariffs. In addition, all of the EV chargers in the Actavo HomeCharge product range qualify for the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (SEAI) grant of up to €600 for home charging units, which is available to homeowners regardless of whether they currently own an electric car.

This is an exciting opportunity for the company in the rapidly growing market for Electric Vehicle chargers. We will be leveraging the talent and expertise of one of the country's largest and most experienced in-home installation teams, in our first-ever direct-to-consumer offering.
