In 2016, Franklin launched its ‘LiFe’ charging network, establishing the brand as an integral part of the UK’s rapidly merging EV technology infrastructure. Franklin Energy works closely with strategic location partners to deploy charging points and is also at the forefront of innovation around smart charging including vehicle 2 grid and demand side frequency response.
Franklin Energy’s USP is its ability to be manufacturer agnostic through the firms cloud based back office platform which has been integrated with over 60 different types of charging points from across Europe. This places Franklin Energy in the position of being the first to market new technologies such as wireless inductive charging and high powered charging ahead of competitors. Franklin Energy was the first UK charging point operator to enter into a pan European roaming agreement and offers true roaming across its ‘LiFe’ charging network today.
During 2019 Franklin Energy launched in Republic of Ireland with a number of location partners and the firm plans to position itself as a major charging point operator in this market.
