The ChargeNode App

The mobile app that helps your customers

As a charging customer, you always have free access ChargeNodes mobile app for iOS and Android. Here you can easily activate charges, see a map view of ChargeNode's public charging points and receive ongoing information on charging status. Here we can also inform and help service. If your business is connected to ChargeNode, you can easily switch between private and business charging. It is also possible to easily charge without the app via an assigned RFID tag.

Web Payments

Pay without an app by scanning the QR code on the charging outlet and entering payment card information. Support for ApplePay/GooglePay makes this an easy and attractive option for retail customers such as passing tourists.

Roaming

With ChargeNode roaming services, your charging locations become part of a larger ecosystem. The platform connects external charging networks and apps, so more drivers can easily find, start and pay their charge - regardless of operator. For you, this means higher utilization, increased revenue and full control over prices, terms and follow-up in the same portal as the rest of the charging store. Easy for the driver, profitable for you.

Payment terminal

Public charging points with a power exceeding 50kW must offer payment by physical payment terminal. We offer a fully integrated payment terminal through our dating Adyen - with our intuitive interface for selecting the charging outlet and charging status.

Invoice

Collect all your charges on one invoice with our business account. Easy for those of you with pool or staff cars.

Leasing companies

ChargeNode integrates the payment solution with many leasing companies such as Ziklo Bank, Autoplan, Leaseplan, Bilreda, etc.

Automatic Payout

Automatic payment by self-invoice

ChargeNode handles the payment with the charging customer and refunds the facility owner via a self-invoice, completely without administration. All you have to do is post the invoice.

Smart power control

Vehicle charging can quickly become the biggest item on your electric bill - unless it's managed smartly. ChargeNode gives you the tools to control exactly how and when power is distributed, so you charge to the maximum without overloading the property and reducing your costs.

AutoCharge

Med AutoCharge In the ChargeNode platform, charging starts automatically as soon as the car is plugged in.

No app, no RFID card and no extra steps for the driver - identification and payment take place seamlessly in the background. The result is a faster, more intuitive charging experience that reduces friction, increases usage and makes your charging locations even more attractive to both returning and casual drivers.

RFID Tag

Med RFID Tag In the ChargeNode platform, charging starts quickly and reliably with a simple snap.

Ideal for repeat users, company cars and places where simplicity and reliability are crucial. Each charge is automatically linked to the right user or vehicle, providing clear follow-up, smooth charging and full control in the portal - even when app or connectivity is not an option.

Queue priority

Prioritize individual outlets for mission-critical operations such as pool cars, service cars to ensure that the cars are always prioritized for charging so that operations do not stop. When priority sockets are not active, available power is distributed to the other outlets to constantly maximize the charging capacity of the entire system.

Power scheme

Optimize your charging system with smart power schedule

With a dynamic power schedule, you get full control of the plant's maximum power - adapted to the daily load and network cost.

Advantages of power scheme:

  • Reduce power peaks and reduce the cost of power subscriptions
  • Avoid overloads in plant and transformer
  • Control charging smartly at peak pressure - without compromising user experience
  • Adapt to network agreements and tariff zones (e.g. high and low cost time)

The result: lower costs, more stable operation and more sustainable use of the grid - ideal for real estate, business and depot charging.

Power Optimization

Smarter charging with departure time and peak shaving

Charging all vehicles at full power at the same time is neither energy efficient nor economically sustainable. By instead prioritising charging based on the vehicle's departure time, we can use the available power in a smarter way - without anyone standing with an empty battery.

Advantages of Departure Time Controlled Charging:

  • The right energy for the right car at the right time: Those who go first get priority over available power
  • Lower power costs: More even load leads to lower power peaks and network charges
  • Less need for grid reinforcement: Power can be distributed evenly throughout the day
  • Safety for the user: You are guaranteed to get enough charge until you go - no earlier than necessary
  • Sustainable resource utilization: Ideal for multiple simultaneous chargers on limited capacity

This type of dynamic steering is particularly suitable for residential, business and depot charging - where vehicles stand for a long time but do not need to be charged directly.

Load Balancing

Our backend load balancer all OCPP compliant hardware to protect the property's main fuse against overload while maximizing the total power available for the electric vehicle charging. We can balance the load statically against a fixed power budget or dynamically, which means that the power budget for charging in real time is relative to the power output of the property. We support both DLM (Dynamic load management) and ALM (Adaptive Load Managment) standards.

Operation and monitoring

ChargeNode proactively monitors your entire infrastructure and makes sure you can act before your users even notice a problem.

System Notifications

Proactive operational monitoring

With our intuitive alarm setting module, you can keep full track of the operating status of your charging infrastructure. The system analyzes error codes, classifies alarms automatically and suggests actions - so you can act quickly and efficiently.

  • Prioritize alarms according to impact and need for action
  • Suggested actions directly in the interface
  • Filter, customize, and automate alarm management
  • Reduce unnecessary downtime and service downtime

Smarter service starts with the right insights - at the right time.

Monitoring & Alarms

Real-time monitoring of OCPP traffic

In addition, you monitor the session data of the charging points, see limits for example uptime, automatically generate alarms and suggest action.

Integrations

ChargeNode connects your charging business with the outside world - other operators, your financial system and the Swedish electricity market.

OCPI - API

Our backend is integrated with an OCPI-compliant API that enables standardized and secure communication with other systems and e-mobility actors. It makes it easy to exchange data with external platforms - without exposing our entire infrastructure.

Benefits of our OCPI API:

  • Interoperability: Communicate with other operators, EMSPs and roaming platforms via established standard
  • Access to key features: Get information on charging points, availability, pricing, sessions and transactions
  • Secure and controlled access: Only approved features exposed - no interference with sensitive business logic
  • Future-proof: We follow the development of OCPI and adapt our support to the needs of the industry

Our API is the obvious interface for creating seamless charging across network boundaries — without compromising control or data security.
