Who We Are

At nectar, we are re-defining electric vehicle charging for multi tenant buildings. We have built a system that requires no costly electrical upgrades and cures the pains of shared charging. We are revolutionizing the charging experience for both building owners and drivers with Charging as a Service.

EV drivers reserve charging at the push of a button. Behind the scenes, each building’s dedicated movable battery charges the cars wherever they are parked delivering 40-60km of range with a 5 minute charge.

During building off hours we enable asset managers to profit from their unused garage assets by offering charging services to non-tenants.

Come join us to build the future of electric vehicle charging!
