- HeyCharge secures EUR 2.5 million from the European Innovation Council to scale SecureCharge FLEX across Europe.
- The project enhances EV charging platform capabilities with dynamic load management, demand response, and V2G capabilities.
HeyCharge has secured significant financial backing from the European Innovation Council to accelerate innovation in the EV charging platform space. The EUR 2.5 million grant supports the company?s SecureCharge FLEX initiative, aimed at strengthening energy intelligence, grid integration, and cross-border deployment. This funding milestone reinforces the growing importance of scalable, software-driven charging infrastructure across Europe.
European Innovation Council Backs SecureCharge FLEX
The European Innovation Council selected HeyCharge under its Accelerator program, awarding EUR 2.5 million to advance the SecureCharge FLEX project over a 24-month period. The funding enables further development of advanced functionalities within the company?s EV charging platform while preparing for broader commercial deployment.
Through this initiative, HeyCharge aims to enhance system intelligence and operational efficiency while aligning with evolving European regulatory and certification standards.
Advanced Energy Management and V2G Capabilities
The SecureCharge FLEX project focuses on integrating advanced energy management tools directly into the EV charging platform. These enhancements are designed to optimize electricity consumption, improve grid stability, and maximize charging efficiency.
Key Technology Enhancements
The funded development roadmap includes:
- Dynamic load management to balance energy distribution across multiple charging points
- Demand response integration to support grid flexibility
- Expanded V2G capabilities enabling bidirectional energy flow between vehicles and the grid
By embedding these features, the EV charging platform becomes more adaptable to fluctuating energy demand and renewable integration requirements.
Multi-Country Pilots and Pan-European Rollout
Over the next two years, HeyCharge will deploy large-scale pilot projects across multiple European countries. These pilots are designed to validate performance, operational resilience, and interoperability under real-world conditions.
The company will also complete multi-country certification processes required for a pan-European commercial rollout. This structured approach ensures regulatory compliance while positioning the EV charging platform for broader market penetration.
With support from the European Innovation Council, HeyCharge strengthens its role in advancing intelligent, scalable charging infrastructure across Europe.
