DFS partners with ICASA and TSG for EV payment in Europe
DX Power can provide station operators with improved visibility and control over all EV transactions.
Dover Fueling Solutions is partnering with ICASA Energy Solutions and Technical Services Group (TSG) to offer DX Power, DFS’ EV payment solution, in Europe.
DFS and ICASA established a strategic partnership after years of intensive cooperation. In conjunction with Prizma, DFS’ connected mobility and convenience hub, and the integrated ICASA solution, DX Power can provide station operators with improved visibility and control over all EV transactions and offer flexible payment options.
“DX Power makes it possible for EV chargers to be included in transactions through the point of sale (POS) system and the outdoor payment terminal. This enables customers to pay for EV charging with cash, as well as a traditional bank card, local account and fleet card,” said Raf Tormans, Senior Manager, Product Management, DFS.
“The complexity and the biggest challenge of public EV charging lies in the identification and authentication of the EV driver. The partnership with Dover Fueling Solutions and the successful integration with DX Power allows us to authorize EV charging sessions via both fleet card and bank card, not requiring any subscriptions and providing EV drivers with the freedom to charge anywhere,” explains Steve Vandermeeren, COO/CTO of ICASA.
As part of the DFS and ICASA partnership, the two companies completed a successful DX Power pilot program using TSG. The pilot program was conducted at an AVIA VOLT site in Enschede, the Netherlands. The ability to connect EV chargers to Prizma marks a new milestone for the DFS and TSG partnership in Europe.
