Chargepoint Management
Before looking in detail at the chargepoints, Rolec offers the following by way of charger management:
Monta - Monta is Rolec's recommended chargepoint management platform, and is the software that sits behind your charging network to handle everything from payments and access control through to energy reporting and load balancing. In simple terms, it is the system that lets you control who can charge, when they can charge, and what they pay for it - all from a single online portal or app.
For businesses and organisations, the Monta portal gives operators full visibility of their charging network. You can set your own tariffs, schedule price changes at specific times of day, restrict access to certain users or groups, and pull detailed reports on energy usage and charging activity. This makes it well suited to a wide range of applications - from a workplace car park where you want to offer free charging to staff and paid charging to visitors, through to a public car park where you want to generate revenue from passing EV drivers.
For drivers, the Monta app makes finding and paying for a charge straightforward. It shows available chargepoints on a map, allows payment via Google Pay, Apple Pay, credit card, or a pre-loaded team wallet, and sends notifications when a charging session is nearing completion. There are no annual membership fees for drivers - they simply pay for what they use.
Monta operates on a free tier for smaller installations of up to 3 sockets, with an Enterprise tier available for larger or multi-site operations that require advanced features such as load balancing, roaming, and team management tools.
It is worth noting that because all Rolec chargepoints are OCPP 1.6 compliant, operators are not locked into Monta. Rolec integrates with over 45 chargepoint management system partners globally, so if your organisation already uses a preferred platform, Rolec chargepoints can connect to that instead. For locations where a simple contactless payment solution is needed without a full management system, Rolec's Tap & Charge terminal provides a standalone pay-to-charge option that works across a group of chargepoints in a similar way to a parking meter.
The Rolec EVO Smart EV Charger
The Rolec EVO is Rolec's award-winning flagship home EV charger, and their most technically advanced domestic charging unit currently available in the UK. It is suitable for home use and light commercial installations, and is available in two versions: a 7.4kW single phase model for standard home charging, and a 22kW three phase model for superfast charging where a three phase supply is available.
The EVO is a compact, wall-mounted Mode 3 charger with a universal Type 2 socket, measuring 260mm (W) x 260mm (H) x 112mm (D). It can also be post mounted using the optional EVFP0035 mounting post, which conforms with PAS 1899 accessibility standards. It is IP54 and IK10 rated, making it fully weatherproof for permanent UK outdoor installation.
Solar and Smart Charging
The EVO supports solar surplus charging across three modes. ECO mode uses solar energy during the day and scheduled grid power at night. ECO+ mode charges exclusively from surplus solar power for a zero-cost, zero-carbon charge. Charge Now mode delivers maximum charge from the grid at any time. This makes the EVO a popular choice for UK homeowners with solar panels who want to make the most of their renewable energy.
For scheduling and monitoring, the free Rolec EVO app allows users to set charging times, integrate with smart tariffs for off-peak savings, and track energy consumption. It is OCPP 1.6 compliant, so it can also connect to any third-party chargepoint management system for commercial use. Charging can be initiated via plug and go, RFID card (two included), or the app.
Dynamic load balancing is included as standard, with a CT clamp and cable supplied, preventing the charger from overloading the property's electrical supply. PME fault detection is built in, so no earth rod is required. The 22kW model also features three to single phase switching for added installation flexibility. The EVO comes with a 5-year warranty and qualifies for the OZEV EV Chargepoint Grant.
The Rolec Zura EV Charger
The Rolec Zura is a premium smart EV charger designed for both home and business use in the UK.
