    Why is this happening now?

    The last year has brought a significant shirt to the EV charging industry. Companies like Enel X Way and EVBox have scaled back in North America to focus on other core markets or business lines. Shell Recharge has now joined the list with the announcement to shutdown the Shell Sky™ CPMS in the US and Canada on April 30, 2025. Shell’s prioritizing its owned charging network rather than providing software services for third-party networks.
     
    All of these changes amount to one thing: businesses need reliable alternatives. That’s where Noodoe comes in. Because we’re doubling down on our North American focus and have committed to supporting businesses through this transition. Unlike Shell or Enel X Way, we designed our dedicated EV charging management solution for long-term customer success.

    Why Shell Recharge Customers Need a New EV Charger Management System

    The discontinuation of Shell Recharge’s CPMS Shell Sky™ on April 30, 2025, presents migration challenges because many businesses rely the software. It manages their EV charging networks or services. Without a proactive migration plan for your EV chargers, you risk:
    • Disrupted charging services for customers.
    • Inability to monitor or control EV chargers effectively.
    • Lack of revenue generation.
    With Noodoe EV OS, you can overcome these challenges by leveraging a charging point management system (CPMS) designed with three goals in mind. You want reliable operation, scalable structure, and ease of use. Noodoe EV OS is OCPP 1.6 and 2.0.1 compliant. So, it integrates with an extensive range of charging stations. It’s a software answer you can rely on after April’s migration from Shell Recharge.
