Power that does not depend on the grid
A 200 kWp canopy generates through the day and a 600 kWh battery carries the evening peak. The DisCo connection is backup, not supply.
How the hub worksCharging that works when you get there.
We build solar-backed fast charging in Lagos, Abuja and Port Harcourt, and check every public charger in Nigeria every 30 seconds, so you never drive to a dead port.

Three things have to be true before a charge stop works.
The charger has power, the port is free, and the payment goes through. Most operators own one of those. We run all three.
Payment the way you already pay
Card, transfer or USSD into a naira wallet. One rate across the network, and the receipt lands in your account the moment you unplug.

Find a chargerSolar by day. Battery by night. Open either way.
Nigerian grid power is not a background detail here, it is the design constraint. So every hub we build, in Lagos, Abuja and Port Harcourt, generates what it can, stores enough to run a full evening, and treats the grid as the thing that might not turn up.
This site runs on the same cycle. Use the switch in the header and watch where the current comes from.

Home / Charging network
A network built for Nigerian power, not textbook power.
Solar generation, battery storage and a grid connection used only as backup. That is what makes a charger that is open when you arrive, on every site we run in Lagos, Abuja and Port Harcourt.
How the flagship hub is put together.
The site generates its own power during the day and stores enough to run a full evening of charging without drawing from the grid. When the DisCo supply drops, which on these corridors it does, the battery carries the load and nobody at the forecourt notices.
Everything on site is monitored remotely, port by port. If a unit stops answering, it is flagged on the map as faulted rather than left showing as available, and a local crew is dispatched.
- 200 kWp solar canopy over the charging bays
- 600 kWh lithium iron phosphate battery storage
- 300 kW inverter with microgrid control
- Grid connection retained as backup supply
Our chargers.
Every EasyCharge unit has two cables, so two cars charge at once and you are not waiting on the driver in front of you finishing.
Rapid, 120 kW
Our flagship bays. Most cars go from 20% to 80% in roughly half an hour, depending on what the vehicle will accept.
- CCS2 and GB-T cables
- Contactless and wallet payment
- Suits long-range cars and vans
Fast, 50 to 60 kW
Partner sites at malls and offices, where an hour of charging happens while you are doing something else anyway.
- CCS2 or GB-T depending on site
- Good for a top-up, not a full charge
- Usually covered parking
Destination, 22 kW
Hotels, apartment blocks and workplaces. Slow by design, and the cheapest way to fill a battery overnight.
- Type 2 socket, bring your own cable
- Full charge in a long stay
- Often free to guests
What we hold ourselves to.
A charging network is only as good as its worst week. These are the standards we publish and report against.
99% uptime
Measured per port, not per site. A site with one working port out of ten is not a working site.
Honest status
A port shows as available only after it answers a live check. Ports we cannot reach are marked offline, never hidden.
One published rate
The price per kWh is on the map, in the app and on the screen before you plug in. No connection fee, no minimum spend.
Response times
Faults are triaged within an hour of being detected, and a crew attends within 24 hours on our own sites.
Accessible bays
New sites are laid out with space to open a door fully beside the bay, level approach and lighting that works at night.
See what is available right now.
The map covers our sites and every other public charger we can reach in Nigeria.
Home / Pricing and payment
One rate. No connection fee. A receipt every time.
You pay for the energy you take and nothing else. The price is on the map before you set off and on the screen before you plug in.

How paying works.
The rate is the same at every EasyCharge rapid site, in Lagos, Abuja and Port Harcourt. Top up a naira wallet in the app, or tap a card at the charger. Either way the session ends when you unplug, the wallet is charged for the exact energy delivered, and the receipt lands in your account.
Partner sites set their own rate. Whatever it is, you will see it on the map and on the charge screen before the session starts.
- Card, bank transfer or USSD top-up
- Contactless card payment at every EasyCharge unit
- Plug and charge for enrolled vehicles, no app needed at the post
- Roaming accepted from partner networks
What a typical charge costs
Small car, 20% to 80%
About 24 kWh, roughly ₦12,000, around 25 minutes at 120 kW.
Family SUV, 20% to 80%
About 45 kWh, roughly ₦22,500, around 35 minutes at 120 kW.
Delivery van, 30% to 90%
About 40 kWh, roughly ₦20,000, around 40 minutes at 120 kW.
Times are indicative. Charging slows as the battery fills, and every vehicle has its own limit.
Receipts, records and VAT.
Every session produces a record with the site, the date, the energy delivered and the amount charged.
In your account
Receipts appear in the app immediately after a session and stay there. Download any month as a PDF or a spreadsheet.
For businesses
Fleet accounts get one consolidated monthly invoice, with a line for every session, broken down by driver and vehicle.
If something looks wrong
Tell us the session and we will check the meter reading on the port. Overcharges are refunded to the wallet within two working days.
Questions about a charge or a payment?
Support is open around the clock, every day, and a person answers.
Home / Find a charger
Every public charger we can reach, with the status it actually has.
We list our own sites and everyone else's. A port shows as available only once it has answered a live check, so the map tells you what you will find when you arrive.
Schematic view. Sample data shown while the network is being commissioned; the live map runs in the EasyCharge app.
What the statuses mean.
Available
The port answered a check in the last 30 seconds and has no session running. Drive to it.
Charging
A car is plugged in. The session will usually finish within the hour at a rapid port.
Offline
The port is not answering. It may have no power or no connection. We do not know that it works, so we do not say that it does.
Faulted
The port reported an error, or failed a check repeatedly. On our own sites a crew is already on the way.
Charging data for your product.
The same feed behind this map is available as an API for maps, carmakers and fleet software.
Home / Drivers
Everything you need for a first public charge.
Charging an electric car is simpler than filling a tank, once you know what the connectors mean and how long a stop really takes.
Your first charge, in five steps.
-
Check the map before you set off
Look for a port marked available, and check the connector matches your car. Availability changes, so glance again as you get close.
-
Park so the cable reaches
Charging ports sit in different places on different cars. Pull in so your port is on the same side as the unit, and leave the bay clear for the car beside you.
-
Start the session
Tap your card on the reader, or start it from the app. Enrolled cars using plug and charge start on their own as soon as the cable is in.
-
Plug in firmly
Push the connector all the way home until it clicks and locks. The screen shows the power flowing within a few seconds.
-
Stop, unplug, go
End the session on the screen or in the app, and the cable unlocks. Your receipt appears in your account straight away.
Work out what a charge costs.
Put in your battery size and how full it is. We will estimate the energy, the price and roughly how long you will be standing there.
Energy you will take--
What it costs--
Roughly how long--
An estimate, not a quote. Charging slows once a battery passes about 80%, and cold or very hot batteries accept power more slowly. Your car may also cap the speed below the charger's rating.
Which connector does my car use?
Nigeria sees cars from Europe, China and the used import market, so there are three plugs in common use.
CCS2
The rapid standard on most European and many Chinese cars. Two large DC pins below the normal socket.
GB-T
The Chinese DC standard, found on a good share of imported vehicles. Our units carry both CCS2 and GB-T cables.
Type 2
The slower AC socket used at hotels, offices and homes. You bring your own cable for these.
Questions and answers.
Do I need the app to charge?
No. Every EasyCharge unit takes a contactless card. The app is worth having because it holds your receipts, shows live availability and lets you top up a wallet at a lower effective cost.
What happens if the power goes out while I am charging?
At our own sites, nothing. The battery takes over and the session continues. At partner sites the session stops safely, the cable unlocks, and you are only billed for the energy that was delivered.
The map said available but the port was dead. What now?
Report it from the app or email support. We re-test the port immediately and mark it faulted if it fails, so the next driver is not sent to it. That feedback loop is a large part of why our data is better than a static list.
Why does charging slow down near the top?
Every battery tapers as it fills, to protect its life. Going from 20% to 80% is usually quick; the last 20% can take as long again. For a journey stop, 80% is normally the sensible place to unplug.
Is there a fee for staying plugged in after charging?
Not today. If bays become congested we will introduce an idle fee at busy sites, publish it clearly, and warn you in the app before it starts running.
Can I charge a plug-in hybrid?
Yes, if it has the right socket. Most hybrids charge on AC only, so a destination unit suits them better than a rapid bay.
How do I get a receipt for expenses?
Receipts sit in your account after every session and can be downloaded by month. Business accounts get one consolidated invoice instead.
Still stuck? Message us.
Support is open 24 hours, every day, including while you are standing at a charger.
Home / Host a charger
Your car park, our chargers, no capital from you.
We fund, install, operate and maintain the equipment. You provide the space and the grid connection point, and take a share of every kilowatt-hour sold.
What hosting involves.
We host sites in Lagos, Abuja and Port Harcourt, and most work the same way. We survey the site, agree a bay layout and a revenue share, handle the DisCo interconnection and the civils, and install the units. From the day they energise, they are ours to run and yours to earn from.
Where the supply is weak, which is common, we size solar and battery storage to the site rather than walking away from it. That is the part most operators cannot do.
- No capital outlay and no maintenance liability
- Revenue share on every session, paid monthly
- Typical timeline of 10 to 16 weeks from survey to energisation
- Your site appears on our map and in partner navigation apps
Sites that work well
Shopping malls
Dwell time of an hour or more, and charging brings drivers who then spend inside.
Hotels and serviced flats
Overnight destination charging, often offered to guests as an amenity.
Filling stations
Forecourt space, existing traffic and staff already on site around the clock.
Depots and yards
Fleet charging by night, public charging by day, on the same hardware.
Offices and business parks
Predictable weekday demand and space for slower, cheaper units.
How the process runs.
Site survey
We look at available power, parking layout, traffic through the day and where cables can run. You get a written view of what the site can support.
Commercial terms
A revenue share or a fixed rent, a term length, and clear responsibilities on both sides. No exclusivity over the rest of your estate.
Design and approvals
Electrical design, DisCo interconnection where needed, and any permits for groundworks or signage.
Build and energise
Civils, cabling, unit installation and commissioning, scheduled around your trading hours.
Operation
We monitor every port, dispatch repairs, handle driver support and pay your share monthly with a full session report.
Tell us about your site.
Send the location and rough parking count and we will come back with what it could support.
Home / Fleets and logistics
One account, every vehicle, one invoice at the end of the month.
Electric vans and ride-hailing cars only save money if charging is predictable. We give fleet managers the control and the numbers to make that true.
Cards and access for drivers
Issue a card or an app login per driver. Sessions are authorised against the fleet account, so nobody is paying out of pocket and claiming it back.
Consumption you can audit
Energy, cost and duration by driver, by vehicle and by site. Spot the van that charges twice as often as the rest of the fleet.
Credit terms
Established logistics operators can charge now and settle monthly, instead of pre-funding a wallet before every shift.
Depot charging
We install and run chargers at your yard, with solar and storage where the supply is unreliable, on the same account as public charging.
Priority bays
Reserved capacity at our hubs during agreed windows, so a shift change does not turn into a queue.
Route and availability data
Feed live charger status into your own dispatch or telematics system, so vehicles are not routed to a dead port.
Built around how fleets actually run.
A fleet does not charge like a private driver. Vehicles come back in waves, the depot supply is limited, and every minute a van spends waiting is a delivery not made.
For fleets running across Lagos, Abuja and Port Harcourt, that means one account covering all three. So we plan charging around your shift pattern: slow overnight charging at the depot where it is cheapest, rapid top-ups on the road when a route runs long, and a single set of numbers covering both.
- Shift-aware depot charging schedules
- Public network access on the same account
- Monthly invoice with a line per session
- Cost per kilometre reporting by vehicle
Getting started
Tell us the fleet
Vehicle count, types, routes and where they sleep at night.
We model the charging
What can be done at the depot, what needs the public network, and what it costs per month.
Set up the account
Driver cards issued, reporting configured, credit terms agreed.
Run vans, taxis or trucks?
Send us the fleet size and the routes and we will model what charging would cost you.
Home / Charging data and API
Anyone can list a charger. The hard part is knowing it works right now.
We collect every public charger feed in Nigeria, put them in one shape, and test them before they reach a driver's screen. That checked feed is available to license.
How the feed is built.
Operators report status in incompatible formats, and some report online for ports that have been dead for months. Three stages fix that.
Collect
Partner networks over OCPI 2.2 or their own APIs, our hubs over first-party telemetry, and private sites at hotels, malls and depots.
Normalise
Every source arrives in a different schema. We map them all onto one record per port, refreshed on a 30-second cycle.
Verify
Any port claiming to be online is re-tested before it is published. Stale and unreachable ports are marked, never quietly dropped.
What each record contains.
Enrichment is the product. A carmaker shipping vehicles into Nigeria needs to know that the connector fits, the tariff is current, and the port answered a few minutes ago.
- Status per port: available, charging, offline or faulted
- Connector type and rated power
- Current tariff per kWh, and any parking condition
- Opening hours, access notes and on-site amenities
- Location, approach and accessibility detail
- Historical availability, so you can see which sites are reliable

Home / About us
We build the chargers, and we tell the country which ones work.
EasyCharge Technologies is a Nigerian charging company, operating in Lagos, Abuja and Port Harcourt. We operate our own solar-backed sites, run the accounts and payments behind them, and publish live status for every public charger in Nigeria.
Why we started with data.
Most people who give up on an electric car in Nigeria do not give up because charging is expensive. They give up because they drove to a charger and it was dead, and nothing on their phone had warned them.
So we built the map before the hub. It covers other operators' chargers as well as our own, because a driver does not care whose logo is on the unit. They care whether it works.
The charging sites came next, designed for the power situation that exists rather than the one the design manual assumes: solar canopy, battery storage, and a grid connection treated as a backup.
What we run
Charging sites
Our own hubs and partner sites, operated and maintained by us.
Driver and fleet accounts
Wallets, cards, invoicing and support, in naira, settled locally.
The national charger map
Live, checked status for public chargers across the country, licensed on to other platforms.
How we work.
Say what is true
If we cannot reach a port, we say it is offline. An honest map is worth more than a long one, and drivers can tell the difference within a week.
Build for the grid we have
Generation and storage on site is not a green add-on here. It is the difference between a charger that opens every day and one that does not.
One published price
No membership tiers, no connection fees, no surprise at the end of a session. The rate is on the map before you drive.
Where we are heading.
The first hub on the Lekki corridor is the template, not the destination.
Now: the map
Live status across partner and independent chargers in all three cities, with the driver app in beta.
Next: the flagship hub
Ten 120 kW ports under solar canopy with battery storage, open around the clock.
Then: Abuja and Port Harcourt
Hubs of the same design in both cities, sites along the routes that carry the most traffic, and depot charging for fleet partners.
Alongside: the API
Charging data licensed to carmakers, map platforms and planners, extending across West Africa.
Work with us.
Site owners, fleet operators, charging networks and platforms that need our data: we would like to hear from you.

Reporting a broken charger?
Tell us the site name and, if you can, the port number printed on the unit. We re-test it straight away and update the map so nobody else drives to it.
Before you get in touch.
Two things solve most support requests faster than we can.
The charger will not start a session
Unplug fully, wait ten seconds and reseat the connector until it clicks. If the screen still shows an error, try the second cable on the same unit first, as the fault is usually on one arm only.
You have been charged the wrong amount
Open the receipt in your account and check the energy delivered against the amount. If they do not match the published rate, send us the session reference and we will check the meter on the port. Overcharges are refunded within two working days.
