Iberdrola bp pulse selects Driivz software to manage its EV charging network in Spain and Portugal

Driivz, a Vontier company, supplies software to EV charging operators. Iberdrola bp pulse, a collaboration between oil giant bp and Spanish electric utility Iberdrola, operates EV charging sites on the Iberian Peninsula.

Now Iberdrola bp pulse has selected Driivz to manage and optimize its network of 2,500 DC fast chargers. The Driivz software platform will provide Iberdrola bp pulse with analytics across its network, delivering real-time visibility into charger availability, uptime, hardware performance and charging patterns.

Iberdrola bp pulse says it will use Driivz’s API-first architecture and energy management platform to support future capabilities including vehicle-to-grid integration and smart coordinated charging.

“This migration is a strategic decision to build our operation on foundations that allow us to grow, innovate and deliver reliability,” said Federico Artes, Technology and Operations Director of Iberdrola bp pulse for the Iberian Peninsula. “In a business where every charger is a revenue-generating asset, you can’t manage what you can’t measure. This partnership will translate into a more reliable network for drivers, a more efficient operation for our team and a smarter grid asset for the energy ecosystem.”

“Networks of this complexity—spanning multiple markets, vendors and customer segments—require a platform built around data and operational intelligence,” said Shiri Levi-Laor, CEO of Driivz. “That’s what Driivz delivers.”
