Are you determined to save the world and go green? But don’t know where to plug your electric car?

Don’t worry, we have the soolution for you. Meet SOOLUTIONS, a successful Dutch company that supplies you with the most adequate and independent choice of EV charging equipment and accessories, all in the comfort of your home.

While there are many options to select from an electric car, the e-mobility market still needs reliable, easy-to-understand information and execution, enabling consumers to charge their electric vehicles at home, at work, and in public. JIBE empowers this innovative approach through an online Market Platform, which allows easy configuration and purchasing of the required equipment and services while also matching customers with sellers and installers.

What is SOOLUTIONS?

Soolutions help the energy and mobility transition sustainably. They created an ecosystem where suppliers, installers, resellers, and consumers all benefit from the possibilities of the online Market Platform, an interactive, smart web shop. Soolutions has already been the online marketplace for tens of thousands of customers across Europe, and they keep growing, attracting more business in its mission.

The online marketplace is the equivalent of 'Amazon' for ordering and installing home chargers for electric cars. Soolutions gives individuals, and companies access to 25 suppliers and 7installers on the Market Platform. The platform works in a very intuitive way, with customers being able to configure the charging equipment they need while also booking an installer. Meanwhile, business customers such as car dealers, leasing companies, and housing corporations can offer this online decision aid as a white-label service on their platform.

The startup estimates that a market of 100 to150 billion euros is up for grabs in Europe over the next ten years. 'That timespan is comparable to the adoption curve of the washing machine,' says Joury deReuver (Founder of Soolution).

How does JIBE contribute to Soluutions success?

JIBE developed and continuously upgraded the Market Platform for Soolutions, to offer the best user experience. It is highly intuitive, complex, easy to use, and customer friendly. The one-stop shop is acritical gateway between customers, products, and services, enabling a rapid, easy buying and selling process with the most suitable EV solutions available.

Since 2019 JIBE is a partner to Soolutions inbuilding the Market Platform, which revolutionizes the charging of electric vehicles at home and helps vendors and resellers drive through the transition to a fossil-free world. This strong partnership facilitates the energy transition by making sustainable technology accessible, easy to use, and affordable everywhere and at all times for as many people as possible.

The online Market Platform has two interfaces, one for the buyers and the second for the sellers (suppliers, installers, resellers).
