What eStation does

eStation is a Dublin-based turnkey EV charging solutions provider founded in 2015, operating exclusively in the Republic of Ireland across all 26 counties. The company supplies, installs, and supports AC and DC EV chargers for residential, commercial, fleet, hospitality, and public-sector customers, pairing hardware with a proprietary cloud-connected management platform. Underlying technology includes SIM-enabled smart chargers (enabling remote diagnostics without local Wi-Fi), dynamic load management to balance electrical demand across multiple charge points and defer costly grid upgrades, and an integrated software stack spanning the eStation Management Software (PC/tablet/smartphone dashboard with usage tracking, kW consumption reports, and automated reimbursement) and the eStation Network App (iOS/Android, Google Maps navigation, real-time station status).

The product portfolio operates in four interlocking layers: hardware supply and installation, software/SaaS (management platform plus network app), the EV Fuel Card module that replicates legacy fuel-card functionality for corporate EV fleets (consolidated billing, home/work/public reimbursement across 95% of Irish public charge points), and services including advisory/consultancy (site surveys, grant application support), tiered SLAs and maintenance, and SEAI grant administration. eStation is a SEAI Approved Charge Point Operator and holds Triple ISO Certification (ISO 9001, 14001, 45001) achieved in September 2025.

eStation makes money through five revenue streams: hardware sales and installation (one-time revenue on each charge point), SaaS subscriptions for the management software (monthly recurring), advisory and consultancy engagements, transaction/access fees for public charging network usage, and tiered SLA managed-services contracts. Go-to-market is enterprise-led: a direct field-sales team engages corporate fleet managers, facilities managers, and property developers on multi-site deployments; channel partnerships with Irish leasing companies (notably Ayvens since 2019) and car dealerships (including Nissan Ireland as Electric Mobility Operator) deliver leads at scale; mid-market and residential customers are served via inside sales. Named customers span DHL Express and DHL Global Forwarding (280+ vehicle fleet rollout across multiple Irish hubs), An Post, Nissan Ireland, Ayvens Ireland, McCarthy Commercials (Ireland's first Volvo truck charging project), Folens, Enercon, Hultafors, and Louis Fitzgerald Hotel. The company has roughly 13 employees, no disclosed external funding, and operates from Churchtown Business Park, Dublin 14.
