[INQ. NO. 2309M01] Pluglink Inc. (Pluglink) is at the forefront of the electric vehicle (EV) charging revolution, strategically focusing on establishing charging infrastructure within residential complexes, and particularly apartment buildings. Pluglink’s vision is crystal clear: aiming to become the premier player in the Korean EV charging market, prioritizing a seamless user experience. What sets Pluglink apart is its exclusive involvement in the K-RE100 initiative, dedicated to providing renewable energy to EV users, emphasizing the company’s commitment to sustainability solutions.

In response to the global shift toward electric vehicles, South Korea is actively expanding its EV-charging infrastructure, supported by government subsidies. Pluglink is setting itself apart from its competitors through innovative financing methods, combined with government installation subsidies, thus ensuring stable operations and contributing significantly to the growth of the EV-charging network.

Notably, Pluglink utilizes ‘peak shifting’ and ‘load balancing’ technologies, which are particularly effective in scenarios where EV chargers are mandated in buildings with limited power capacity.

Pluglink Connect: Comprehensive management system for charging stations
Pluglink’s groundbreaking ‘Pluglink Connect’ is a comprehensive management system customized for charging stations, setting it apart with its integrated approach, and thus enabling real-time monitoring and site-specific management of EV chargers. What further distinguishes ‘Pluglink Connect’ is its seamless collaboration with business partners, including hardware installation companies and sales agents, making it a versatile solution. Building on this foundation, Pluglink is actively expanding its presence in the EV-charging industry through ‘Pling Biz,’ a Charging-as-a-Service (CaaS) solution.

Outstanding 100% app-based QR code authentication method
In contrast to most Charge Point Operators (CPOs) in Korea relying on RFID card authentication, Pluglink stands out with its 100% app-based QR code authentication method. Furthermore, the company has patented Bluetooth communication technology between EV chargers and apps, pioneering the Plug & Charge (PnC) service, and simplifying the charging process even more than QR code authentication.

With over 35,000 members and a monthly capacity exceeding 2GWh within just one and a half years, Pluglink is on track to emerge as a formidable industry leader, poised to shape a better future for EV-charging.
