dragonize Builds E-Truck Charging Network on chargecloud OS

dragonize has built a closed B2B depot charging network for heavy electric trucks on chargecloud OS, a hardware-agnostic charge point management system handling authorization, tariffing and audit-proof billing across every charging point.

dragonize has built a closed B2B depot charging network for heavy electric trucks on chargecloud OS, a hardware-agnostic charge point management system that has run in the e-mobility market since 2016. A brand of PamSun GmbH, a subsidiary of the TST Group, dragonize covers the full lifecycle of depot charging — planning, construction, ongoing operations and billing — and has already signed its first logistics members beyond founding company TST. The operational backbone comes from chargecloud OS, embedded in the dragonize DepotOS software bundle, which handles authorization, tariffing, control and audit-proof billing for every charging point in the network.

Highlights

  • dragonize operates as a closed, curated B2B network that lets member logistics companies share private and semi-public depot charging stations for heavy electric trucks.
  • chargecloud OS, active in the market since 2016, serves as the hardware-agnostic CPMS handling authorization, tariffing, control and billing across the network.
  • The platform is OCPP 2.0.1-compatible and supports OCPI roaming via Hubject, Gireve and the chargecloud partner network.
  • dragonize DepotOS unifies charging planning, reservation, route planning, monitoring and billing in a single central platform, with chargecloud OS embedded as the management and billing layer.

A Closed Network Built Around Logistics Operations

dragonize is structured as a curated, closed B2B charging network for heavy e-trucks, letting members share and use private and semi-public depot charging stations instead of running fragmented standalone setups. The company frames the model as predictability over dependency: rather than stitching together multiple separate solutions, members work from one integrated software system that connects planning, operations and infrastructure.

That system is the dragonize DepotOS, which brings charging planning, reservation, route planning, monitoring and billing together in a single central platform. The ecosystem is aligned to the processes, language and requirements of the transport sector, and spans depot charging from planning and construction through to ongoing operations and billing.

What Does chargecloud OS Handle in the Network?

chargecloud OS sits inside the DepotOS bundle as the operational and technological backbone for managing and billing charging stations. As a hardware-agnostic charge point management system, it runs the network’s core charging functions on an automated basis configured for depot operations:

  • Authorization, tariffing and control of every charging point in the dragonize network, fully automated.
  • Audit-proof billing that tracks each charging session through to the final invoice.
  • Unified control and live monitoring that, the company says, keep charging points highly available regardless of the hardware manufacturer.
  • OCPP 2.0.1 compatibility with OCPI roaming enabled via Hubject, Gireve and the chargecloud partner network.

chargecloud COO and CRO Oliver Adrian framed the goal as removing operational friction from depot charging. “Logistics companies need a system for building and expanding their charging infrastructure that works reliably and scales with their organization. With our chargecloud OS, we provide dragonize with exactly that foundation: a hardware-agnostic, fully automated backend that reduces operational complexity in depot operations. Because dragonize with chargecloud inside means: when the truck arrives at the charging station, everything else runs automatically,” Adrian said.

A Backend Built to Scale

chargecloud has been active in the market since 2016 and, the company says, has established itself on stability and reliability in a competitive segment of e-mobility. For dragonize, that established track record provides a technical foundation that runs in the background to secure operations and support growth, with new locations and network members integrated without system changes.

dragonize positions the partnership as a requirement-driven match. “dragonize was developed from real-world practice – with the ambition that charging infrastructure should work just as predictably, reliably and economically as every other part of depot operations,” said Katrin Herda, Managing Director behind the dragonize initiative. “Meeting that standard requires a technology partner that understands and can deliver on the requirements of logistics.”
