Join The Trial!

 

Be among the first to experience hassle-free EV charging with Save-a-Space – where your charger waits for you, not the other way around.

How EV charger reservations work

Charging your EV has never been this simple. With the Save-a-Space app, you can now pre-book your EV charger alongside your parking space – all in one smooth experience. All powered by our smartly managed EV charger reservation solution called Reserve & Charge.

Reserving your EV charger means:

Secure your EV charger in advance

Pick your preferred time and location using the Save-a-Space app

Pay for everything in one app

Booking, parking, and charging – everything is paid for directly in the app

Park, plug in and charge

Go straight to your assigned bay, connect your vehicle, and start charging right from the app
