Mercedes-Benz in the UK has chosen smart charging company Ohme as its new official home charging partner.
The agreement will see the vehicle manufacturer recommend Ohme chargers to customers who need a home charging solution.
In addition, an Ohme Home Pro charger will be available in Mercedes-Benz showrooms for customers to view.
Ohme’s dynamic smart chargers can connect with the national grid in real time and automatically adjust its charging for drivers to take advantage of all the times of low price charging with smart off-peak tariffs, not just set times.
The company also offers drivers the option to charge their car when renewable energy generation on the national grid is at its highest, further lowering their CO2 impact.
Ohme is the official charger provider for Motability Operations as well as for housing developers Harron Homes and Hollins Homes.
It was recently named by outside investors as a ‘gigacorn’ – a company that has the potential to get rid of one gigatonne of CO2 from the atmosphere per year.
Jason Allbutt, Head of Product and Planning from Mercedes-Benz said, “We are delighted to announce that we will be partnering with Ohme as our recommended home charger supplier.
“Ohme’s technological innovation and excellent approach towards customer service and professionalism align with the core values of Mercedes-Benz.”
David Watson, CEO of Ohme said, “Mercedes-Benz has one of the strongest premium line-ups of electric vehicles. This collaboration with Mercedes-Benz underlines Ohme’s position as one of the UK’s fastest-growing and most dynamic smart charging companies in the UK.
“We’re looking forward to introducing Mercedes-Benz customers to the benefits of smart charging and supporting its network of agents.”
