Strategic integration strengthens interoperability across the vehicle charging ecosystem,
delivering a more accessible charging experience for fleet operators and drivers.

LONDON, UK — Paua, the leading vehicle charging and payments platform for fleets, and
ECOFACTOR, a rapidly expanding (new to the UK) CPO and hardware manufacture with
significant presence in Slavic and EU countries, today announced a collaborative partnership
to integrate their platforms and deliver a more seamless, accessible charging experience for
fleet operators and drivers.

The relationship was developed through the EV Café community, with EV Café playing an instrumental role in bringing Paua and ECOFACTOR together through its industry networking and events programme, including the CV Show 2026. Those conversations created the foundation for both companies to recognise a strong alignment in their vision for fleet electrification and the opportunity to collaborate in delivering greater interoperability and accessibility for commercial EV charging.

The integration will enable Paua’s fleet customers to access ECOFACTOR’s growing
network of charge points through the Paua platform, expanding the breadth and reliability of
charging options available to fleets as they scale their electrification journeys. The
integration reflects both companies shared commitment to interoperability as a cornerstone
of the transition to electric mobility. Through this integration, Paua and ECOFACTOR are jointly addressing one of the most persistent challenges facing fleet operators today: fragmented access to charging
infrastructure. By connecting their respective platforms, the partnership will:

  • Expand fleet drivers’ access to a broader, more reliable network of charge points
    across the UK.
  • Reduce complexity for fleet operators managing charging across multiple networks
    and locations.
  • Deliver a more connected and straightforward charging experience, from
    authentication to payment.
  • Strengthen the wider charging ecosystem through open collaboration between
    innovative EV companies.

Scott Edy, Global Geo Director, ECOFACTOR, commented:

“Great partnerships create better experiences for drivers, and that’s exactly
what this collaboration with Paua is about. By working together, we’re making
EV charging more accessible, connected and straightforward for fleets, while
continuing to strengthen the wider charging ecosystem alongside
ECOFACTOR’s growing network across the UK and beyond.”

Niall Riddell, CEO and Co-founder, Paua, added:

“The transition to electric transport will only succeed through collaboration. No
single business can build the future alone. Partnerships like this show what
can happen when innovative companies across the EV ecosystem come
together with a shared goal of making charging simpler, more accessible and
more connected for fleets.”

— Niall Riddell, CEO and Co-founder, Paua

PAUA x ECOFACTOR integration arrives at a pivotal moment for UK fleet electrification.
With government targets driving accelerating EV adoption among commercial fleets,
operators are increasingly seeking charging solutions that are both scalable and simple to
manage. ECOFACTOR’s network continues to grow in scale and geographic reach, while Paua’s
platform provides fleet operators with unified visibility, control, and payment capabilities
across multiple charge point networks. Together, the two companies shape a powerful
combination that puts driver experience and operational simplicity at the centre.
