Contact the cloud for electricity

 

The Noodoe EV charging stations at the soon-to-be-opened Tom Patterson Theatre are interesting installations. To charge their electrically powered vehicles, drivers use their smart phones to scan a QR code, select their preferred payment method, and charge their car while off enjoying a performance at the nearby theatre.

Noodoe EV is a Taiwanese maker of electric vehicle charging systems has operated in Asia and Europe for the past decade. A few years ago Noodoe EV expanded into North America and has now installed nearly 1,000 EV charging stations in the U.S. at casinos, hotels and shopping malls plus more.

The feature that Noodoe EV most likes to brag about is its use of a cloud-based platform. Does the cloud connection benefit drivers? Yes but it benefits the owners of the Noodoe EV charging stations more. Noodoe EV provides the parking lot owners with the charging stations with a wealth of information: how long does the average user charging their car, how much power is used during an average charge and how much profit is being made from each charging unit.

Noodoe EV like to brag that its technology transforms parking lots into "hands-off revenue generators."
