Northe – making EV-driving seamless and carefree across the globe

Interview with David Fauné, Co-Founder and CEO: Driving an electric vehicle should be a flawless experience, according to Northe. The company was founded in Stockholm by David Fauné, Stefano De Colli, and Tamas Hess in 2020. David and Tamas had been working together at Tech Buddy, and they realized that charging an electric vehicle is not simple. According to them, there was a need for a one-stop platform for all types of EVs.

”We are the only charging platform to summarize the complete charging activity, regardless of which operator you have been charging with” says David Fauné.

Payments and administration in the EV landscape are big issues, especially for companies with commercial fleets. Northe has created a platform to address these issues; a solution to simplify charging for both companies (B2B) and drivers (B2C). Northe Business takes care of administration, and consolidates all charging activities and the reporting – typically for EV operators, leasing firms, car rentals, or taxi companies. Northe Driver enables private as well as business drivers to charge their vehicles and access a wide network of different charging operators across Europe.

”Northe’s vision is to simplify the transition from fossil fuel-driven cars to electric ones, and create a seamless experience for all drivers. We want to remove the preconceptions of range limitation.” says David Fauné.

The Northe platform has the possibility to be used in many markets, which is an advantage for businesses, especially for car rental companies. Some of their clients are Avis (car Rental), LeasePlan (Fleet Management), and BRING (Logistic) – the Swedish and the Norwegian Post office. Northe has connected with a large network of public, semi-public and private partners in order to expand over the world. Today, Northe is available in 18 countries, making it easy to travel.

”We are growing at a fast pace, and we know that we can handle the growth as the company is built that way from the start” says David Fauné.

Northe recently launched a payment solution, Northe Property,  a charging solution designed for property owners. Northe Property offers charging for residents, visitors, and employees. Another feature being worked on is ”plug and charge”, meaning that you can plug in anywhere, and the charger knows who you are and where to charge.

”This is a major change in behaviour and the way to charge will be completely revolutionized. We are here to drive that innovation” says David Fauné.

Vision:

Electrification, digitalization and innovation is what we do. These three components are key in order to reach our global sustainability targets for coming years. Our technology will be invaluable for the transformation from fossil driven vehicles to electric, our platform will connect the ”mobility industry” with the ”charging industry” and facilitate millions of charging sessions through the most seamless and future proofed way. 

Challenge:

 Electric vehicles are booming. We are approaching the largest change in the mobility area since horse and carriage. To provide electric mobility charging is a key component that is still extremely fragmented and problematic. Our platform makes charging vehicles easier than ever, independent of who you are and what kind of vehicle you are using.
