Our story

Built by EV drivers,
for EV drivers.

VoltNeighbours was born from a simple frustration: too many EVs, not enough chargers. We're building the infrastructure layer that turns every driveway into part of the solution.

Our mission

Peer to Peer. Powering Together.

We believe the energy transition shouldn't depend on waiting for the government or the grid. It should be powered by neighbours helping neighbours — people who already have what others need.

VoltNeighbours is building one of the UK's first peer-to-peer EV charging marketplaces: a platform where charger owners earn passive income and EV drivers find affordable, convenient charging close to home.

How it started

A problem we lived ourselves.

Our founders switched to electric vehicles and quickly discovered the same problem millions of UK drivers face: if you don't have a driveway, reliable home charging is almost impossible.

Meanwhile, neighbours with home chargers were leaving them idle for 22 hours a day. The supply existed. The demand existed. The connection didn't. So we built it.

Driver needs a charge

No driveway. No home charger.

Matched to a local host in minutes.

Host earns. Driver charges.

Sustainability

Every shared charge is a step forward.

22hrs

average daily idle time for a home charger

Shared charging infrastructure reduces the need for new public charge points, cuts grid strain, and makes EV ownership viable for the 2.4 million UK households without off-street parking.

By unlocking existing capacity, VoltNeighbours accelerates the UK's path to net zero — without waiting for new infrastructure to be built.

What we stand for

Community-first, always.

Neighbourly trust

Every host and driver is verified. Ratings, reviews, and community standards keep the network safe and reliable.

Genuine sustainability

We measure our impact in tonnes of CO₂ avoided and miles enabled — not just signups. Real progress, not greenwashing.

Fair economics

Hosts set their own rates. Drivers pay less than public chargers. We take a small platform fee — everyone wins.

Safety & reliability

Insurance-backed sessions, 24/7 support, and transparent dispute resolution. Charge with confidence.
