  • Support for Automotive OEMs, Utilities, and More: This partnership is designed to support large-scale electrification programs for automotive OEMs, utilities, and hardware manufacturers.

The collaboration aims to provide homeowners seeking to electrify their properties with transparent pricing and quick access to licensed electricians, ensuring safe and efficient installation processes.
