While some fleets operate with uniform models of electric vehicles and charging assets, it’s far more common - and even strategic - for fleet operators to be working with a variety of OEMs.
This kind of flexibility allows operators to choose the assets that best suit their day-to-day needs and real world use cases. It can also serve as a safeguard if a provider unexpectedly leaves the market.
One potential obstacle that may arise in this scenario, however, is a lack of interoperability between hardware and software. Synop is built to overcome this challenge by ensuring seamless compatibility across diverse charging hardware and telematics systems while actively collaborating with EVSE manufacturers and telematics providers to build robust, reliable connections.
This is, in part, why SparkCharge elected to work with Synop - to help deliver the type of cohesive performance expected from a vertically integrated system while preserving the operational freedom of choosing best-in-class vendors across the ecosystem. Synop and SparkCharge have quickly onboarded a diverse range of hardware providers while achieving this goal and wanted to share our experiences.
A single software solution for a variety of hardware providers
SparkCharge has been offering innovative charging solutions since 2017, most notably pioneering turnkey off-grid Charging-as-a-Service (CaaS) – ensuring EV fleets could be powered whenever and wherever needed. Today, SparkCharge is the world’s largest off-grid EV charging network. These mobile charging capabilities were recently showcased at the 2025 Masters Tournament, where over 300 mobile fast-charging sessions were completed.
With other service offerings including Mobile Battery Chargers, Off-Grid Power Hubs, and Permanent Infrastructure, the company’s vision is “a world where electric vehicle charging is seamless and effortlessly accessible.”
To support them on their path to making that vision a reality, Synop recently onboarded 50 mobile charging ports from varying manufacturers, including brands such as Wallbox and ABB. The integration work was completed quickly and while providing enhanced controls including:
- Seamless Interoperability: SparkCharge was able to quickly and seamlessly add chargers remotely. Providing a single platform to manage a variety of devices.
- Charger Configuration: Deep access to back-end settings, comparison tools, and control over firmware scheduling.
- Reporting: Detailed insights into charger usage, energy consumption, vehicle performance, and emissions, with exportable reports tailored by site, charger, or fleet.
“At SparkCharge, our mission has always been to make EV charging as accessible and seamless as possible—no matter where the vehicle is or what solution is being used," said SparkCharge Founder and CEO Joshua Aviv.
“Partnering with Synop has allowed us to scale faster, streamline operations, and maintain the flexibility our customers rely on. Their platform delivers the interoperability and insights we need to keep leading the mobile charging space.”
Gagan Dhillon, CEO of Synop shared, “SparkCharge has been an incredible partner to work with. Their team is forward-thinking, collaborative, and always ready to experiment with new ways to optimize their operations. It’s been exciting to support their growth and see them take full advantage of what the Synop platform can offer.”
Despite working with a variety of hardware providers, SparkCharge is able to access and manage all onboarded mobile charging units through Synop. Behind the scenes, this requires deep integration with OCPP protocols and precise firmware controls. SparkCharge is also leveraging Synop’s built-in reporting and payment tools to streamline energy management and billing.
SparkCharge is especially excited about Synop’s Nodes feature, which enables them to manage subgroups of chargers within a site. Synop and SparkCharge are collaboratively working to define new functionality which supports this unique use case of mobile units, a variety of hardware types, as well as complex reporting and management structures. Synop’s added layer of control will allow for smarter energy distribution and more efficient deployment of mobile chargers.
We look forward to innovating with partners like SparkCharge around commercial electrification and mobile charging!
