Exploren Hits 5,000 Installed Charge Ports Across Australia and New Zealand
Exploren is proud to celebrate a major milestone: Over 5,000 EV charge ports are now powered by the Exploren platform across Australia and New Zealand.
This achievement marks years of growth, innovation, and collaboration. What started as a bold idea to improve EV charging accessibility has evolved into one of the region’s leading software platforms for managing EV infrastructure. With the recent acquisition of Engie’s high powered DC public charging network by EVSE Australia there will be even more sites transitioning onto the Exploren platform, adding to the pace of progress.
While the number is significant and a huge achievement for Exploren, this milestone is about more than quantity. It represents the quality of the charging experience we enable for drivers, site owners, and installers across Australia and New Zealand.
A Smarter Network, Built for Reliability
Exploren powers the EV charging experience behind the scenes. Our software connects drivers to chargers, enables operators to monitor usage and performance in real time, and provides the tools to maximise uptime, efficiency, and service.
Why does this matter? Because a charger that doesn’t work when needed is more than just an inconvenience. It creates a barrier to EV adoption. That’s why Exploren is built to:
- Deliver live status updates to drivers
- Provide real-time alerts to operators if a charger goes offline
- Enable remote fault detection and diagnostics
- Ensure smooth billing, session tracking, and tariff control
This intelligent layer keeps chargers available, accessible, and reliable. While our hardware partners and installation experts handle the physical infrastructure, Exploren ensures everything behind the screen runs effortlessly. It creates a better experience for drivers, site owners, and fleet managers alike.
