The 'EVIE' lamppost EV charger has been conceptualized by the UK-based Alloy design agency as a solution for the cityscape to help support the shift towards electric cars.
The lamppost maintains a simple and modern aesthetic that would democratize electric vehicle charging stations by making them accessible on roadways rather than requiring drivers to have their own private charging station. The accompanying app would offer real-time location data to let drivers easily find a spot, book it and pay with total ease. The lamppost would provide illumination to the surrounding environment, while built-in cameras would offer drivers a view to their car for peace of mind.
The 'EVIE' lamppost EV charger is imagined alongside the 'EVIE Mini,' which could be installed in parking lots in public areas like around grocery stores or restaurants.
