About
At JOLT Charge, we are on a mission to make our cities cleaner and pioneer the shift to a zero-emissions future. We believe that electric vehicles will play a pivotal role in this global transition, but they require deep investment in infrastructure to truly support widespread adoption. That is why we are building a large-scale, global network of free and fast electric vehicle charging stations. We aim to accelerate the adoption of electric car ownership by making charging more convenient, fast, and affordable for everyone. What makes our approach truly unique is that our network is powered using 100% green, renewable energy, ensuring that every charge contributes positively to the environment. Our innovative business model combines state-of-the-art EV charging technology with digital out-of-home advertising. By integrating charging units into digital advertising screens, we can display targeted ad campaigns while customers charge their vehicles. The revenue generated from these advertisements helps to cover the cost of providing free charging to our users and supports the rapid expansion of our network across Australia, New Zealand, Canada, the UK, and the United States. We provide drivers with approximately 45km of free range every single day, which significantly eases the financial burden of EV ownership and saves families over $1,100 per year on energy bills. We are a team of enthusiastic, clever, and driven individuals who want to move the needle and have a profound impact on the future of electric vehicles. We partner closely with local councils, governments, and businesses to deliver reliable charging networks, especially for those EV owners who do not have the benefit of overnight charging at home. By expanding access to convenient, kerbside charging across the places people already visit—like shopping centres, grocery stores, and urban hubs—we are removing the friction from EV adoption one charge at a time. We are excited to be leading the way forward, building the vital infrastructure needed to power our roads, address range anxiety, and help get more people behind the wheel of an electric vehicle.
