Driivz, a Vontier company and global leader in smart EV charging and energy management software, announced a strategic partnership with ENAPI, a Berlin-based roaming connectivity platform, to simplify and scale cross-border EV charging. The collaboration will benefit charge point operators (CPOs), e-mobility service providers (eMSPs), and ultimately, millions of EV drivers across Europe and beyond.
By integrating the Driivz Smart EV Charging and Energy Management platform with ENAPI’s OCPI-based roaming broker, the partnership dramatically broadens network reach while streamlining transactions between charging providers. Through this collaboration, Driivz customers gain instant access to ENAPI’s extensive roaming ecosystem, which currently includes 350,000+ charge points connected via eight of Europe’s top 10 eMSPs. EV drivers will enjoy the convenience of charging across multiple networks using a single payment account.
“We believe that interoperability and flexibility are key to the future of e-mobility. Partnering with ENAPI helps us to deliver both – at scale,” said Andy Bennett, CEO of Driivz. “We share the same vision of bringing seamless charging experiences to drivers, no matter where they’re headed.”
Accelerating Roaming Network Expansion
This integration represents a major step toward true global EV charging interoperability. By removing the need for dozens of bilateral integrations, the partnership enables CPOs and eMSPs to expand their footprint more efficiently and reduce time-to-market. For drivers, the result is a more consistent, convenient, and reliable charging experience, regardless of location or provider.

A Shared Vision for Driver-Centric Innovation
Driivz and ENAPI are aligned in their mission to make EV charging smarter, simpler, and more accessible. The partnership enhances real-time communication across networks, reduces transactional friction, and supports the driver expectations of seamless connectivity.
“Our mission is to make EV charging transactions seamless, efficient, and accessible,” said Jakob Kleihues, co-founder of ENAPI. “Partnering with Driivz allows us to accelerate progress on that mission, empowering both CPOs and eMSPs to deliver better service at greater scale.”
Looking ahead, Driivz and ENAPI plan to expand roaming capabilities to North America and the Asia-Pacific region, aligning with emerging ISO 15118 Plug & Charge standards and supporting the next stage of global EV adoption.
Enabling Open, Scalable EV Connectivity
As one of the earliest adopters of OCPI technology, Driivz has been pioneering interoperability since 2015, when it first integrated OCPI into its platform. Today, the system supports hundreds of OCPI 2.21 connections in production, making Driivz a trusted partner for some of the world’s largest charging networks.
This latest partnership builds on Driivz’s established roaming collaborations with Hubject and GIREVE, reinforcing its commitment to an open, hardware-agnostic, and neutral approach to EV charging infrastructure. Expanding roaming not only benefits drivers but also provides utilities and grid operators with improved data transparency and more predictable load behavior-helping to shape the future of smart energy management.
