\n Welcome to EV Flex! Here’s everything you need to know about our electricity innovation trial. <\/h2>\n
\n

We’re proud to partner with ESB Networks to learn more about EV charging\u202fbehaviour. Together, we can find out how EV owners in the Republic of Ireland can help make shape a more flexible electricity network by plugging in more. Plus, you’ll unlock rewards along the way. Let’s get started!<\/p>\n <\/div>\n

What’s my mission?<\/h3>\n

Just plug in your car a bit more often than usual \u2013 ideally every day if it works for you. The best part? You\u2019ll get paid for it.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s right \u2013 rewards for simply plugging in!<\/p>\n

When you plug in, our clever Ohme chargers can start and stop charging to help balance electricity demand. This “smart charging<\/a>” helps make the network more sustainable, and the more you keep your Ohme charger plugged in, the smarter it gets. Plus, as a thank you, you’ll earn vouchers that can be used at a wide range of retailers.<\/p>\n

Simply put, keeping your car plugged in at home is a win-win for both the planet and your wallet.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n

Who can take part?<\/h5>\n

The trial is invite-only. It’s limited to you and a small number of Ohme drivers in the Republic of Ireland who meet specific eligibility criteria, including managing your charging via the Ohme App. The trial is not open to Ohme or ESB Networks employees, their immediate family, or any other person professionally connected with the EV Flex trial.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n \n <\/div>\n

\n\n
\n \"\"\n <\/div>\n\n \n
What if my car is plugged in but not charging?<\/h5>\n

This still counts! You’ll earn rewards by plugging in more frequently, not charging more<\/strong>. Why? The more you’re plugged in, the more flexibility the network has to operate efficiently. Learn more here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n \n <\/div>\n

\n\n
\n \"\"\n <\/div>\n\n \n
How do I claim my rewards?<\/h5>\n

Every week you plug in, we’ll track your eligible charging sessions and add a reward to your account. At the end of each month, we’ll send you a reward update so you can grab your gift card and start shopping across a wide range of retailers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n \n <\/div>\n

\n\n
\n \"\"\n <\/div>\n\n \n

More plug-ins, more rewards.<\/h3>\n

To earn at least one reward, you’ll need to plug in for more than 6 hours, on 3 separate days of the week. Your Ohme charger just needs to be plugged in to your EV – no charge needed!<\/p>\n

The more you plug-in, the more rewards you can earn:<\/p>\n
