*Up to £15/month available to participants with a half-hourly smart meter (SMETS1 enrolled in DCC, or SMETS2). Equivalent to approximately 750 miles per month at £0.08/kWh and 0.250 kWh/mile. Earnings vary with charging frequency and grid demand.
waEV-smart is a free app that turns your home EV charging into a small monthly income. Instead of you having to remember to set timers and chase cheap rates, waEV-smart does it for you - automatically charging your car when electricity is cheapest and the grid needs the help most. You don't change your routine or your supplier. You just plug in when you get home and wake up to a charged car. We pay you for the bits in between.
Our app works with a wide range of tariffs, including fixed and variable options from major providers like British Gas and Scottish Power. Please note, it does not integrate with intelligent controlled tariffs like those offering real-time pricing adjustments.
and more...
That's the whole effort. No schedules, no apps to tap, no thinking.
We optimise charging in the background - pulling power when it's cheapest for you and most useful for the grid. Your car is ready when you need it.
Your earnings build up in your waEV-smart account. Withdraw to your bank, or use them however you like.
Yes. Manual charging is still available when needed. Once your vehicle is plugged in, a Boost option will appear on the main Dashboard screen. Selecting Boost will immediately begin charging outside of your smart schedule.
waEV-smart allows you to automatically schedule charging during off-peak periods, optimise charging around your energy tariff, connect compatible EVs directly, monitor charging sessions and history, earn rewards and manage your charger remotely.
No. Vehicle integration is optional. However, integrating your vehicle allows waEV-smart to read the vehicle state of charge directly, meaning you can set a target battery percentage rather than selecting a specific kWh amount.
