The Mobility House

Website

The Mobility House (TMH) is a technology & operating company with a focus on EV charging services. Our goal is to help create a zero-emission energy and mobility future. Our technology enables reliable and efficient charging of electric vehicle fleets and vehicle-grid integration using intelligent charging, energy management and storage solutions.

We strongly believe that moving towards an electric transportation and energy future will require deep integration between the energy and transportation industries. We have shown that by aggregating decentralized energy storage assets (either stationary or “batteries on wheels” – aka EVs) and controlling their charging / discharging we can reduce the cost of charging for customers and create value for utilities and grid operators (e.g. mitigation of transmission or distribution constraints; enabling higher renewables penetration).
