Vaylens simplifies EV charging for fleet operators

By / 3 months ago / Tech, UK News / No Comments

Vaylens, the charging management software brand recently launched by the Kostal Group, is simplifying how fleet operators manage and monetise EV charging with the launch of its latest suite of solutions.

The new software solutions help fleet operators streamline their charging infrastructure

Designed specifically for the unique needs of the fleet sector, the full suite includes a dedicated fleet charging module, a regulation-ready card payment terminal, and solutions that help operators manage all charging stations. Each solution can be deployed individually or as part of a fully integrated charging infrastructure solution.

Developed to meet the specific needs of the fleet sector, they will help fleet operators who have transitioned all or part of their fleets to electric vehicles, facilitating the charging of their vehicles.

By centralising control of charging and payments, the solutions enable fleet operators to optimise costs, ensure compliance with regional requirements, and deliver a seamless future-proof charging experience.

The fleet charging module streamlines fleet operation costs by providing operators with complete visibility into all charging session data, whether onsite, at home or on the road. It also automates home charging reimbursements and ensures efficient reporting to cut the time spent processing mileage expenses.

The VaylensPay card payment terminal reduces infrastructure costs by serving multiple charging stations from a single terminal. It’s designed to be cost-effective and regulation-ready, and provides an enhanced user experience from within the Vaylens platform.

The community charge solution allows fleet operators to manage all charging stations while specifying preferential tariffs for office employees and visitors. From contracts to billing, everything is handled automatically.

The launch follows the Association of Fleet Professionals’ recent announcement that it’s commissioning a platform for its members to share EV charging infrastructure across their depots.

Russell Olive, UK director at Vaylens, said: “Range anxiety, the complexity of charging tariffs and the inability to report and measure EV usage, is a big issue in the fleet industry. It is holding the industry back from transitioning to a fully electric fleet. But this doesn’t need to be this way. Our new solutions help make the transition seamless, taking the burden of technology away from fleet operators, so they can focus on what they do best – running their businesses.”

Launched in 2024, Vaylens is the new name of the Compleo Charging Software division within the Kostal Group. Its division operates with 99.9% uptime, covering over 700,000 charging sessions, and offering reliability and ease of integration, making it simple for fleet operators of all sizes to adopt electric mobility.
