Bonnet Secures £920K Funding to Expand EV Charging Platform
Bonnet, a London-based startup that aims to improve the experience of electric vehicle drivers, has secured a £920K ($1.3M) total funding for the business
The funding will be used to support the growth of the ten-strong team at Bonnet as well as expanding the platform’s chargepoint offering and partnerships with network operators
The company provides an app that allows drivers to see real-time data on charger availability and functionality and offers drivers ‘bundles’ of cheaper charging that they can use anyway across the network
Bonnet has aggregated charging points in 1,400 locations across the UK and aims to have integrated with 70% of UK charge points by the end of 2021.
