The company originated as a collaboration involving University College Dublin and Imperial College London, emerging from academic research into EV charging infrastructure.[2]

History

Go Eve was founded as a spin-out of University College Dublin and Imperial College London, with early development focused on addressing constraints in EV charging infrastructure.[2][3] The company raised seed funding to support development and commercialization of its technology.[4]

Further funding and expansion plans have been reported as the company sought to scale deployment in Europe and North America.[5]

Installations have been reported at SAP in Dublin, and at Stellantis in Detroit.[6]

Technology

Go Eve's primary product, known as DockChain, is designed to allow multiple electric vehicles to connect to a single DC fast charger by allocating charging sequentially or according to defined policies.[7]

The concept of chaining charging access points to enable multiple vehicles to share a single charging station was described in academic research, where a "DockChain" adapter system was proposed to mitigate "charge point anxiety" by allowing vehicles to connect in a cascaded network.[8] Related intellectual property describing systems for directing power flow between multiple devices in a daisy-chain configuration has been disclosed in patent literature.[9] The commercial system developed by Go Eve applies related principles to high-power DC fast charging infrastructure.

The company has also been granted and has applied for additional patents covering aspects of its DockChain charging system.[10][11][12][13]

The system has been described in national media as enabling a single DC charger to be "multiplexed" or "daisy-chained" across multiple vehicles, reducing infrastructure costs associated with high-power charging.[14]

Partnerships

Go Eve has entered into partnerships with EV charging hardware manufacturers to support deployment of its technology. In 2025, the company announced a partnership with Zerova, a manufacturer of EV charging systems, under which DockChain technology would be integrated with Zerova’s DC fast chargers.[15][16]
