As 2025 winds down, we are looking back at a year that genuinely felt like a turning point. Voltshare kept growing, all while sticking to our mission: making electric vehicle charging easy and accessible all over the UK.

It’s been a big year! Voltshare was Highly Commended for Best SEIS Investee Company at the EISA Annual Awards. That kind of recognition makes all the late nights and big ideas feel worthwhile, honestly.

We kept rolling out our pay-as-you-go charging solutions at more hospitality sites. Since this time last year, monthly transactions by our users have more than doubled! Heading into 2026, the focus is still on helping venue partners, drivers, and local communities while pushing for cleaner transportation. There’s a lot left to do, but the momentum’s real.

2025 Highlights and Major Achievements

Our integrated EV-charging platform continued growing this year, with the network of hospitality venues growing and a bunch of new features rolling out to improve the charging experience for owners and drivers. We also achieved B Corp certification this year, highlighting our ongoing commitment to sustainability.

Key Milestones Reached

That EISA Awards recognition was a nice nod to voltshare’s business model and growth. It also showed that sustainability-minded hospitality venues and holiday rentals are seeing real value in the platform.

Across the UK, our charging infrastructure expanded, bringing the pay-as-you-go model to more places. Each new spot meant more revenue for venue owners and easy charging for EV drivers. The focus stayed on reliable chargers and a simple mobile app.

New Features and Platform Upgrades

The mobile app got a serious upgrade, with faster payments, better reliability, and easier reporting for venue owners. Scheduling features let venues make the most of peak times, while real-time monitoring helped sort out tech hiccups fast. Integration between hardware, the app, and backend systems got a lot tighter too.

User Growth and Community Expansion

The network of hospitality venues and holiday rentals using voltshare grew a lot this year. More regions now have access, and existing markets deepened. The number of active users climbed as more EV drivers found out how convenient charging at their accommodation could be.

Venue partners really leaned into the pay-as-you-go model, seeing steady repeat business from happy drivers. Voltshare’s reputation in sustainable hospitality kept growing as venues caught on that EV charging is basically a must-have now.

Community Support and Engagement

Growth this year was fuelled by users, smart collaborations, and partnerships that made the EV charging ecosystem a bit stronger. The B Corp badge means a lot, as we're trying to do business the right way, especially in hospitality.

Notable Contributions from Our Users

Hospitality venue owners gave feedback that directly shaped platform improvements and charger features. Many reported higher guest satisfaction after installing voltshare chargers, with reviews often mentioning EV charging as a highlight.

The app’s gotten better, thanks to suggestions from users. Payments are smoother and session monitoring is easier. Holiday let operators saw more booking enquiries after advertising EV charging, especially during busy seasons!

Community members have promoted sustainable travel by sharing voltshare locations on social media and travel sites. That kind of grassroots support helps smaller venues stand out by offering modern amenities that eco-conscious travellers look for.

Collaborative Projects and Events

Voltshare joined forces with hospitality associations and local business networks to build EV charging corridors in popular tourist areas. These efforts made long-distance electric travel a bit less intimidating.

Workshops for hospitality businesses covered the nuts and bolts of EV charging, including installation, pricing, and how to talk to guests about it.

We also worked with schools on charging solutions for staff and visitors, showing that our model works beyond just hotels and pubs.

Expressing Our Appreciation

Voltshare’s progress this year is thanks to the users, installers, and team members who’ve put in the work and believed in the mission. It’s not just about the tech, it’s about people making it happen.

Thank You to Our Users

Honestly, a huge thank you to every driver using the network this year. Hospitality venues, schools, and destinations that installed our EV charging solutions have made charging more accessible all over the UK.

The pay-as-you-go model has made life easier for venue owners, and the app’s enabled thousands of charging sessions, allowing users to find charging points by location, availability, and price. Customer feedback has led to real improvements, and reviews keep mentioning our incredible customer support team.

Recognition of Team Efforts

The voltshare team’s been all in, everyone from customer service to technical specialists. Our B-Corp certification shows a real commitment to environmental responsibility and sustainable business.

Partnerships with local installers have kept standards high and built stronger community ties. The team’s collaborative approach has helped voltshare genuinely invest in the places it serves.

Looking Ahead: Voltshare's Vision for the Future

The plan is to keep expanding sustainable mobility infrastructure and roll out new features that’ll benefit venue partners and EV drivers in the coming year.

Strategic Goals for Next Year

In 2026, we want to continue ramping up our presence in hospitality and education. We plan to build out infrastructure and install more charging points across the UK. There’s a clear push to deepen ties with local communities and businesses, because EV charging is about more than just plugging in cars. It’s about supporting environmental goals and making business sense, too.

Schools are a big focus, and our simplified charging infrastructure is designed to make things easier for educational institutions looking to go greener.

Planned Feature Introductions

The company’s set to launch new driver-facing features on its app, aiming to make charging simpler. Users will get easier payment options and live info about charger availability.

Venue partners are getting more control too. New management tools will let them handle their charging setups with less hassle, and reporting will be sharper.

On the tech side, voltshare’s working to make the hardware more reliable and even easier to install. We’re trying to cut down the setup headaches for venue operators without sacrificing the performance everyone’s come to expect.
