Born from the collaboration between Eurotech and the American company FreeWire Technologies, the mobile stations for recharging electric cars Mobi Charger EV can be moved – servicing more cars - to allow charging at work, at the mall, or in public parks. Eurotech supplies essential technology components: Everyware Cloud, ReliaGate and ReliaCell. Data will be collected from Mobi Charger unit using Everyware Cloud, an IoT (Internet of Things) integration platform that simplifies the management of data and devices, linking them to the cloud securely and reliably. FreeWire will use in real time the information received, to monitor and verify that the stations operate according to the required standards. In addition, it will manage the available power and the energy requirement for charging Mobi EV Charger. FreeWire also chose to install the gateway IoT Reliegate and the mobile network adapter Reliacell inside the Mobi Charger. Reliagate is a low consumption multiservice gateway, designed for bidirectional communication between the stations Mobi Charger and Everyware Cloud. Reliacell is a robust plug-and-play module which ensures a reliable connection to the cellular network.
