Wicklow-Based GEV Technologies: Driving Ireland’s EV Charging Future
By Brenda Shanahan, ZeroMission
In Ireland’s fast-evolving electric vehicle landscape, one company is quietly, and quickly, becoming a powerhouse. Wicklow-based GEV Technologies is setting new standards in the EV charging sector, delivering end-to-end infrastructure solutions designed specifically for fleets, large properties, and businesses nationwide.
Winners of the 2024 EV Industry Award for Best Billing & Payment System for Fleets, GEV Technologies offers what it calls “The GEV Advantage”, a complete ecosystem of design, installation, operation, maintenance, and payment solutions. For businesses navigating the complexities of electrification, this one-stop-shop approach removes the friction and accelerates results.
The GEV Advantage: Simplifying EV for Business
GEV Technologies’ offering includes a host of tailored services:
EV suitability selection – helping fleets and businesses choose the right charging mix
Home, office, and depot charging – ensuring infrastructure works wherever vehicles are based
GEV charge and fuel card – streamlining payments and operational tracking
Grid boosting and local management – future-proofing against power supply challenges
24/7 support and breakdown cover – ensuring uptime and reliability
Carbon and usage reporting – delivering the data businesses need to track impact
One of GEV’s most innovative solutions is its home charging management service. Employees charge at home as normal, but GEV pays the electricity bill directly and invoices the employer, creating a seamless, accurate, and auditable cost management process for fleets with home-based drivers.
Scaling Up with Industry Leaders
GEV’s client list already includes some of Ireland’s most recognisable names, Vhi, Kingspan, Pinergy, and Gas Networks Ireland, each leveraging the company’s scalable, future-ready systems.
CEO John Shiel captures the company’s vision:
“Electric mobility is no longer the future, it’s the present. Proactive businesses and property owners are looking to reduce costs and their carbon footprint. To unlock the benefits of EVs, our clients partner with us to introduce and operate innovative, scalable EV charging, payment and energy management technologies that bring real operational savings. Together, we can turn the shift to electrification into a strategic advantage.”
Client Confidence in Action
The results speak for themselves. Rob Murray, Head of Services at Vhi, praised GEV’s professionalism and precision:
“GEV Technologies were instrumental in our switch to electric vehicles, managing installations in employee homes and ensuring clear separation between personal and business charging. They provided a dedicated relationship manager who oversaw the tricky installation process in domestic settings, all while working to our colleagues’ timelines with quality and safety at the forefront.”
The Road Ahead
As more Irish companies seek to lower emissions, reduce operational costs, and meet sustainability goals, GEV Technologies is perfectly positioned to lead the way, combining technical expertise, client-focused service, and a proven track record in delivering reliable, scalable, and cost-effective EV charging solutions.
In Ireland’s electrification journey, the road may be changing, but with innovators like GEV Technologies, the destination is clear.
