ElectricFish, a national leader in developing the next generation of distributed energy infrastructure, announced a partnership with Emobi, the largest EV charging roaming and JustPlug infrastructure in North America. Through this partnership, ElectricFish becomes a charge point partner on Emobi’s platform, establishing Emobi as the digital infrastructure for fleet charging depots and public chargers. ElectricFish’s technologies provide rapid charging without the need for grid improvements.
The collaboration tackles two significant obstacles to widespread EV adoption: grid infrastructure constraints and charging speed by fusing ElectricFish’s microgrid-scale energy storage and rapid charging solutions with Emobi’s unique JustPlug technology. Emobi’s JustPlug solution strengthens security with encryption and certificate authentication while improving interoperability with current infrastructure. With unified data management across several systems, the technology makes it possible for 80% of current cars and chargers—which do not have conventional Plug & Charge capabilities—to enjoy seamless automatic charging. Through patented power electronics design and battery integration, ElectricFish’s 350Squared technology reduces up to 90% of expensive grid improvements while delivering 133% faster EV charging than conventional hardware.
This partnership comes as charging infrastructure has to expand quickly to meet expected demand increases. Long grid upgrade procedures frequently limit traditional deployment strategies; some deployments can take up to two years, and infrastructure upgrades might cost $100,000 or more. The combined solution not only gives operators better security and allows drivers to use the system more efficiently through interoperability, but it also enables Plug & Charge features without needing expensive hardware changes, thus overcoming these challenges.
“This partnership exemplifies our commitment to future-proofing EV infrastructure as we expand beyond public charging into fleet charging depots,” stated Lin Sun Fa, CEO of Emobi. “ElectricFish’s approach to solving grid constraints complements our JustPlug technology’s ability to eliminate compatibility barriers across both public and fleet use cases. The same protocols we use today for JustPlug will also power vehicle-to-grid communication, ensuring our infrastructure can adapt as the industry evolves.”
“ElectricFish is transforming the EV charging experience by delivering the speed, reliability, and convenience drivers expect—without the delays and costs of grid upgrades,” stated Anurag Kamal, CEO of ElectricFish. “Our 350Squared units bring the simplicity of gas station fueling to EV charging: ultra-fast sessions, seamless authentication, and grid-independent resilience. By partnering with Emobi, we’re enabling public and fleet drivers to plug in and power up in minutes and securing charging while operators maximize utilization and revenue opportunities.”
With planned installations in Detroit, Redwood City, and Oakland, California, the firms will start exhibiting their integrated solutions and show off how JustPlug-enabled ElectricFish charging stations can provide smooth, grid-independent charging experiences. Emobi and ElectricFish are paving the way for the global expansion of charging networks that facilitate EV adoption for drivers and fleets by integrating technologies that can scale quickly without overtaxing current infrastructure.
