Tesla Shares Rise Slightly After Political Clash, But Risks Remain

peaq, the blockchain for real-world applications, announces the expansion of its ecosystem, as PowerPod joins to decentralize electric vehicle (EV) charging. PowerPod is building a decentralized physical infrastructure network (DePIN) of community-owned EV charging stations.

As part of the integration, the project will use peaq as the layer-1 backbone for its DePIN, using it to store charging session data, handle transactions, and reward the users with tokens for powering a more sustainable future of mobility.

Seen as an eco-friendly version, EVs are growing more popular by the day. Deterring this growth is the lack of available infrastructure, especially chargers, with about one-third of prospective EV buyers citing such concerns as the reason they didn’t purchase. The hundreds of thousands of private chargers set up by EV owners could be a massive boon to the industry, closing a vital gap while empowering individuals to earn from their energy assets.

peaq works with industry-leading consortia such as Gaia-x moveID, a €20+ million project led by Bosch, to co-create the future of smart mobility, energy, connectivity, and other important real-world industries. By empowering everyone to own, govern, and earn from the devices and infrastructure they use, peaq is democratizing abundance in the age of AI-driven automation.

PowerPod is building a platform that will enable people to do just that —- open up their EV chargers for fellow drivers to use and earn rewards for providing the charging service.

Besides its app, which will enable these interactions, PowerPod is also working on various hardware devices, including a smart charger adapter, a charger, and a travel adapter that will enable EV owners to charge their vehicles from regular sockets. These devices will make up a DePIN handling charging session data and enabling drivers to pay for the energy.

As part of its integration with peaq, PowerPod will outfit these devices with their multi-chain self-sovereign peaq IDs, enabling them to connect with the blockchain. It will also leverage peaq for data storage and eventually launch its token on the peaq mainnet, set to go live in the coming months. It will also use peaq to set up its rewards mechanism, granting users tokens for interacting with the DePIN.

“The DePIN model is perfect for unleashing the full capacity of the electric vehicle industry,” says Ting, Co-founder at PowerPod. “Through leveraging Web3, PowerPod empowers people globally to contribute to a more sustainable future while also capitalizing on existing charging infrastructure. The DePIN-focused functionalities and economic framework offered by peaq will expedite our development and deployment significantly. We’re enthusiastic about our participation in this dynamic ecosystem.”

“The smart mobility industry has been displaying a lot of excitement about Web3,” says Till Wendler, co-founder of peaq. “It’s thrilling to see PowerPod use the DePIN model to close a vital gap for the electric vehicle market while also giving individuals more ownership in its hardware backbone. We are certain that PowerPod will bring new value and opportunities for the entire ecosystem.”
