Other commonly asked questions

How do grid services and flex charging work?

waEV-smart participates in flexibility services designed to help balance demand on the UK electricity grid. Charging can be intelligently shifted to lower demand periods or times where more renewable energy is available, helping reduce grid strain while still ensuring your vehicle is charged when needed.

How do I contact waEV-charge support?

Support options are available directly within the waEV-smart app menu, including FAQs, Live Chat and additional support resources.

How secure are waEV-charge EV chargers?

The waEV-charge EV chargers can only be operated once the unique RFID waEV-Card is swiped or ev.energy smart charging app is activated therefore you’re fully protected from unauthorised use.

What if my firmware update fails?

Please ensure your charger is connected to WiFi, your phone remains nearby during the update and you wait the full 5 minutes after confirmation. If issues persist, please contact waEV-charge support.

Am I eligible for flex charging rewards?

Customers must have a compatible waEV-charge charger, a SMETS2 smart meter installed and communicating correctly, an eligible dual rate electricity tariff and a compatible charging setup connected to waEV-smart.
