How to Leverage DeCharge

DeCharge is more than just a charging network. It is a platform that empowers individuals, property owners, entrepreneurs, and community builders to participate in and profit from the electrification of the world. This section provides a comprehensive overview of how different stakeholders can leverage DeCharge based on their context, capacity, and goals.

Whether you want to earn passive income, monetize idle land, power your fleet, or contribute to a decentralized energy movement, DeCharge offers a role tailored to your situation.

Key Ways to Leverage the DeCharge Ecosystem

1. Deploy and Earn Purchase and install a DeCharge Mini, Beast, or Titan family (Titan Mini or Titan) charger at your location. Each session generates revenue for the host, calculated based on energy usage, uptime, and other real-world metrics.

2. Join Delegated Deployments No property? No problem. Participate in delegated deployments where you help fund the installation including high-power Titan Mini and Titan units in logistics hubs, and DeCharge handles the site, setup, and operations. You receive a share of the session-based rewards based on your ownership stake.

3. Provide Real Estate Have unused parking space, storefronts, or commercial real estate? Partner with DeCharge to convert your underutilized land into an EV charging site. We provide the hardware, setup, and maintenance. You earn a portion of the revenue without operational burden.

4. Promote and Earn Become a community promoter or regional ambassador. Help DeCharge identify high-demand areas, onboard new hosts or investors, and assist with early adoption. Get rewarded via referral bonuses and early access to new devices.

5. Run a Local EV Business For entrepreneurs in emerging EV markets, DeCharge hardware can be bundled with services like EV rentals, local battery swaps, or charging-on-demand businesses. Use the device as a business enabler, not just a revenue source.

6. Create Microgrids and Edge Networks Advanced users and developers can integrate DeCharge nodes into solar microgrids, energy storage solutions, or autonomous fleet systems. The chargers support smart routing, local telemetry, and upcoming integrations for programmable logic.
