In a major step forward for electric vehicle (EV) adoption, JCT600 Vehicle Leasing Solutions (VLS) has selected Ohme, the UK’s largest smart home charging provider, as its official EV charging partner. This partnership aims to offer JCT600 VLS drivers access to cutting-edge, reliable, and cost-effective home charging solutions, further enhancing the company’s commitment to a seamless electric vehicle experience.
As one of the UK’s leading leasing and fleet management providers, JCT600 VLS recognised the need for a home charging partner that not only delivers technological excellence but also aligns with its customer-centric values. The result is a partnership with Ohme, whose innovative smart chargers promise a hassle-free charging experience for drivers, regardless of the electric vehicle or energy tariff they use.
A Seamless Home Charging Experience
“Our goal was to find a product that was best-in-class, offered cutting-edge technology, and could be used by all EV drivers, no matter their vehicle or energy tariff,” explained Rebecca Eggington, Head of Customer Experience at JCT600 VLS. “Finding a partner that shares our values was crucial, and Ohme stood out. They provide exceptional support throughout the entire customer journey, and we trust them to look after our clients. The easy installation, smartphone app management, and over-the-air updates ensure a future-proof, seamless experience.”
Ohme’s dynamic smart chargers are designed to automatically connect with the grid in real-time, optimising charging costs by tapping into the greenest and lowest-cost energy tariffs available. Their ability to adjust based on grid conditions allows users to charge their EVs when renewable energy is most abundant, reducing their environmental impact.
Greener and Smarter Charging Solutions
David Watson, CEO of Ohme, expressed his enthusiasm for the partnership, stating, “The UK business car market has already proven highly valuable in the transition to greater e-mobility, and we’re delighted to be named as JCT600 VLS’ official EV charger provider. By combining JCT600 VLS’ extensive expertise in fleet management with Ohme’s position as the leading dynamic EV charging company in the UK, we can help drivers and fleets charge smarter, greener, and significantly lower their operating costs.”
Ohme’s influence in the EV charging market extends well beyond its partnership with JCT600 VLS. The company is the official charger provider for several automotive giants, including the Volkswagen Group, Volvo Cars, Polestar, Mercedes-Benz, and Hyundai in both the UK and Ireland. Ohme’s reputation for excellence was further solidified by being named Best Chargepoint Manufacturer at the 2024 Irish EV Awards.

With the increasing demand for electric vehicles, the integration of reliable and intelligent home charging solutions is essential for the smooth transition to e-mobility. JCT600 VLS’ choice to partner with Ohme signals a strong commitment to delivering the best possible charging experience to its drivers. Ohme’s advanced smart charging technology, combined with JCT600 VLS’ extensive experience in leasing and fleet management, promises to set a new standard in EV home charging convenience, efficiency, and environmental responsibility.
This partnership not only benefits individual drivers but also signals a broader move toward sustainable practices within the business car market. As the UK continues its journey toward electrification, collaborations like that of JCT600 VLS and Ohme will play a pivotal role in ensuring a greener, smarter, and more cost-effective future for all.
