UK-based start-up Hypervolt, founded in 2021, is innovating electric vehicle (EV) charging technology to enhance the national electricity grid. Their core technology, Ultragrid, collects over 100,000 data events daily from each charger, enabling automated coordination of energy use and vehicle-to-grid capabilities.

This allows EVs to charge during low-demand periods and return power to the grid when needed. Hypervolt's chargers are designed for durability and aesthetics, with a focus on software for predictive maintenance and customer support without subscription fees.

The company aims to empower households to actively participate in energy trading, potentially saving or earning thousands over time. Hypervolt collaborates with major energy firms like Octopus Energy and EDF, positioning the UK as a leader in energy innovation. The company plans to expand its technology to commercial sites and public infrastructure, while maintaining a long-term vision for sustainable energy solutions.
