What Hangar19 does
Hangar 19 Ltd is a UK-based engineering solutions company headquartered in Chelmsford that has been developing electric vehicle charging technology since 2009. The company builds and operates the Hubeleon Device Management System, a proprietary software platform designed to administer, monitor, and control diverse intelligent assets across energy, eMobility, and integrated transport applications. Under the Hubeleon brand, the company sells charge point controllers, communications modules, a CPMS (charge point management system), the Hubeleon Duo V2G AC bi-directional charge point, the Trio/TrioX socket extender, the HRMM remote maintenance module, a Bluetooth access module, and a wireless charging billing engine. It also operates the EV Living Lab, a real-world test environment for trialling EV-related hardware and software, and offers engineering services spanning concept, prototyping, small production runs, and consultancy.
The company monetizes through three primary channels: professional engineering services (product development support, technical problem-solving, consultancy), hardware sales of Hubeleon products, and a recurring CPMS subscription service operated under the Park & Recharge sub-brand, which manages 1,291 charge points across 40 different charger models for commercial and residential car park operators. Customer segments include UK local government and public sector fleet operators, charge point operators, EV charging hardware manufacturers, energy management companies, and an aging-driver accessibility segment developed through the Transport Pathfinder programme with the Design Age Institute. Distribution is direct via enterprise sales, supported by branded product websites (Hubeleon.com, Park & Recharge) and grant-funded project partnerships with Innovate UK, DESNZ, and UKRI.
The company operates from the UK with stated activity in Europe and the Middle East, and runs a portfolio of grant-funded R&D projects covering V2G (V2VNY, EV-elocity, ENVINCE), wireless charging (WICET), grid integration (GreenSCIES, ADVENT), network resilience (GRACE), accessibility (Transport Pathfinder, BAMBI), and socket extensibility (NetX). Hangar 19 is privately held with no disclosed institutional investors, no disclosed external equity funding, and a headcount of 1-10 employees.
