How SparkCharge’s Fleet Charging Solutions Work
SparkCharge currently offers several service models that let fleets get charging up and running quickly without relying on permanent infrastructure:
Mobile Battery Charging: A flexible DC fast charging unit (80–300 kW) delivered directly to fleet locations. Operators can choose from full-service, hybrid, or self-managed models.
Off-Grid Power Hub: A higher-capacity (180–500 kW) microgrid-powered system for large-scale charging at remote or underserved sites.
Permanent EV Infrastructure: A turnkey, long-term solution that begins with mobile services and transitions to permanent grid-connected infrastructure. Planning, permitting, and installation are included.
All solutions are designed to be integrated with existing chargers and software systems and are backed by 24/7 customer support.

New Funding Will Support EV Fleet Expansion and Partnerships
“Electric fleets are becoming the standard, but charging access is still a roadblock,” said SparkCharge founder and CEO Josh Aviv. “Our goal is to remove that friction and help fleets charge up without the delays or cost of traditional infrastructure.”
The company reports having delivered over 4 million kWh of power and eliminating the need for more than 500,000 gallons of gasoline. In the past year, SparkCharge supported events like the 2025 Masters Tournament and expanded fleet services to all 50 U.S. states. The company also recently entered a strategic partnership with Pioneer Power.
CFO David Piperno added that SparkCharge also secured non-dilutive financing through CSC Leasing to fund future equipment needs.

Why Investors Are Backing Mobile and Off-Grid EV Charging
“As EV adoption grows, charging infrastructure is still the bottleneck,” said Ed Jean-Louis, CEO of Monte’s Fam. “SparkCharge brings the power directly to where it’s needed most, helping fleets make the transition on their terms.”
Gerald A. Michaud, president of Horizon Technology Finance, called SparkCharge’s mobile tech “a smart alternative to slower, costlier fixed charging options.”

According to a Cox Automotive survey, 87% of fleet owners expect to adopt EVs within five years. Those already operating EVs said they’re likely to buy more. Still, lack of charging infrastructure remains a top concern.
SparkCharge aims to ease that concern by delivering power where and when fleets need it, without waiting on construction or grid upgrades.
