Just Drive! ✅
The tesla fast charger is 20 min drive anyway, being charged while the car is stationary is ideal.
It is very difficult to find a parking spot near our house and the charging stations in our area are often occupied when I get home.
I have an electric car and live downtown. Uze would give me flexibility through the day. Today, there are not enough charging stations in my neighborhood at times when I need them.
Increasing demand for alternative charging solutions
- Electric car adoption goal and challenges
Europe: To reach its goal of being climate neutral by 2050, the EU is taking measures to reduce car emissions, as road transport accounts for one-fifth of EU CO2 emissions. In June 2022, the European Parliament already supported the Commission's proposal to have zero CO2 emissions from new cars and vans by 2035.
EV adoption in Belgium and Europe: growth of EVs in the EU is 10 times faster than available charging infrastructure. Workers and individuals switching to electric vehicles (EVs) are mainly concerned about driving range (53%) and charging time (47%). And, specifically in cities, about lack of home chargers (37%) and limited public infrastructure (45%). These concerns are consistent with European averages, where similar percentages highlight these problems.
Driving range and charging times are the biggest challenges as they affect daily usability and convenience. Limited access to home chargers and public charging stations create uncertainty and unpleasant user experiences, especially in urban areas. - Sustainable urban development, a concern of city residents & cities
Public space is scarce and serves different purposes. Cities do not wish to go back to the days of parking meters. Filling public space with charging stations is not an option. Therefore, cities are looking for alternatives. At the same time, residents, especially young, working families without private parking, depend on public charging. This creates a tension between the vision of cities and the needs of its residents. - Car policy at companies and actionable data for fleet managers
The transition to an electric fleet poses significant challenges for companies, especially in terms of car policies around charging. Fragmented data spread across different CPOs (charging station operators) and eMSPs (charging card providers) makes it difficult for fleet managers to get a clear overview of their fleet. They lack overview and convenient tools to optimally manage their fleet and additional costs.
The solution
With Uze, you can charge anytime, anywhere.
4 pillars:
4 pillars:
- Mobile charging as an answer to the challenge of charging in the city. A private parking spot is the exception rather than the rule. When you do want to charge then you often go into competition with the neighborhood. Uze offers through a simple application and its mobile charging station the ability to turn any parking spot into a charging spot. This way you are guaranteed to be able to charge your car every day.
- Emergency charging. In emergencies, Uze helps you out of a jam. Are you on the side with a dead battery or is the charging station not working due to a technical malfunction? Then Uze will help you out of an emergency.
- The charging card ( 2025 ): With its charging card, Uze offers access to more than 600,000 charging points in Europe and has 99% coverage in Belgium. As a result, in combination with our mobile charging service, an EV driver really always has an option to charge.
- Handy App. Clear insights into your charging behavior at home, work or public. Charging suggestions based on your preferences.
