Business growth through sustainable mobility

Clever is developing their business in private and publicly accessible charging stations, and the company is experiencing exponential growth. This development puts significant demands on their backend systems. However, the electric vehicle industry still needs to mature with better communication protocols, fragile firmware implementations in charging stations, and occasionally poor connectivity. This results in overall very low data quality, which is why Clever wants a new CPMS (backend system).

Context& and Clever have started the development of a new CPMS, where Context& has used Azure technologies to provide a framework to connect IoT sensors to each charging station to provide data insights for software implementations. 

This has reduced the time it takes to complete installations by up to 20%, while users are not affected by the software updates that Clever implements several times a day. 

With Data Lake, Clever now stores charging station data and can easily use the stored data for reporting, refunds, and billing transactions. 

With Context&'s solution, Clever has minimized errors, disruptions, and inefficiencies and has accelerated its business growth. Clever has obtained a scalable and secure system that is stable, easy to maintain, and flexible regarding further expansions and integrations.

Since 2017, Clever's annual revenue has increased by more than 700%, and with about twice the staff, they now have almost seven times more customers today than they did a year ago. The number of new customers during March 2020 was equivalent to the number of new customers in one day in March 2021.
