Global energy giant E.ON has officially featured EV Hover as a key innovation in the race to make electric vehicle charging accessible for everyone—starting with the 40% of households that lack a private driveway.
In a recent feature titled "No driveway? No problem. Scaling up the EV revolution with the Hover," E.ON highlights a critical barrier to EV adoption: the "Postcode Lottery." In the UK alone, approximately 11 million homes rely on on-street parking, making traditional home charging nearly impossible and forcing drivers to rely on public chargers that can be up to seven times more expensive.
The Innovation: Charging "At Height"
E.ON’s innovation team identified the EV Hover as the definitive mechanical solution for terraced streets and high-density urban environments.
The feature details how our sleek, 180-degree swivel arm attaches to the front of a residence at height, allowing the charging cable to "float" safely above pedestrians on the footpath. This allows urban residents to finally access off-peak home charging rates and emerging technologies like Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G).
Built for the Elements
Because urban charging requires equipment that can withstand the rigors of public-facing environments, the EV Hover is engineered for maximum resilience. Built from powder-coated Illinois steel, the arm is 100% weatherproof, ensuring long-term performance in rain, snow, and extreme temperatures. This industrial-grade durability is why E.ON is leveraging our technology to bridge the infrastructure gap.
Why This Matters for Hover Away
This validation from one of Europe's largest energy providers reinforces our core mission: transitioning charging cables from "invisible landmines" on the floor to managed, overhead infrastructure. Whether in a Chicago service bay or a London terraced street, the EV Hover provides the safety and clearance needed to make the green transition viable for everyone.
Every EV Hover unit is backed by our Limited Lifetime Warranty, reflecting our commitment to American-made quality and professional-grade reliability.
