Furthermore, Ohme is also part of the House of the Future project at the University of Salford alongside Saint-Gobain, Barratt and Bellway to provide the low carbon homes of the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe are very excited to be introducing the all-new Ohme ePod untethered charger to the market,\u201d explained David Watson, CEO at Ohme. \u201cThe ePod will open up new markets for us and boasts all of the functionality of our award-winning Home Pro but in an untethered package giving customers greater choice than ever before.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new ePod joins Ohme\u2019s highly successful Home Pro smart charger which helped Ohme to be one of the UK\u2019s fastest growing smart charging companies in 2022. The new Ohme ePod features the same technology as the Home Pro for those after an untethered charger without the charging cable attached. Using the class-leading Ohme app, the ePod gives Ohme customers the choice between tethered and untethered for the first time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It means that ePod customers can also take advantage of Ohme\u2019s ability with its smart charging technology to connect with the national grid in real time and automatically adjust its charging for drivers to take advantage of all the times of low price charging with smart off-peak tariffs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Charging a Volkswagen ID. Buzz from zero to 100 per cent with an Ohme ePod on a smart off-peak tariff, such as Octopus Intelligent, could cost just \u00a37.70 compared to more than \u00a326 on the Standard Variable Tariff*.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ohme also offers drivers the option to charge their car when renewable energy generation on the National Grid is at its highest, further lowering their CO2&nbsp;impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ohme is the <a href=\"https:\/\/ohme-ev.com\/ie\/news-and-press\/ohme-official-charger-for-volkswagen-group\/\">official charger provider for the Volkswagen Group in the UK<\/a> as well as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.motability.co.uk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Motability Operations<\/a>, the largest fleet operator in the UK, and has been named as the<a href=\"https:\/\/businessmotoring.co.uk\/business-motoring-awards-2022-the-winners\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> Best Electric Charging Point Provider by Business Motoring<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>* Octopus Intelligent at 10p\/kWh, SVT at 34p\/kWh<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>ENDS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>For press information please contact:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Nat Barnes<\/strong>, Head of PR, Ohme \u2013 nat.barnes@ohme-ev.com<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":1018,"template":"","class_list":["post-1017","news-and-press","type-news-and-press","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.3 (Yoast SEO v27.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Ohme ePod - the new answer for untethered smart EV chargers in 2023 - Ohme EV Ireland<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Ohme celebrates the introduction of the new Ohme ePod untethered charger.
