How a Leading IoT Platform Transformed Their Electric Charging Station Connectivity Offer With Telna
Electric Vehicles Are on the Rise, Creating Opportunities for IoT Platforms
Electric vehicle (EV) adoption rates are showing no sign of slowing down. By 2030, EVs are anticipated to account for around 30% of all new car sales globally.
As access to fully electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles becomes more mainstream, charging stations need access to global machine-to-machine (M2M) connectivity. Unfortunately, this task is often complex and requires negotiation with individual mobile networks while also navigating country-specific regulations.
Our client, an IoT platform, is keen to capitalize on this growing market by providing connectivity to electric charging station manufacturers. They needed a partner to help these manufacturers access seamless global connectivity, without the complexity.

The Solution
Scaling Globally Made Easy
We provided our client with reliable, secure cellular connectivity.
This was achieved through a multi-IMSI SIM giving stations access to multiple networks and simplifying connections to mobile apps and charging management backend systems. This solution ensures chargers remain online and accessible, significantly enhancing the overall user experience.
Additionally, it enables our client, and their customers, to easily expand globally, without having to negotiate network agreements.
Multi-Layered Security Payments
Convenient, secure billing is a top priority for EV drivers. We ensure security with multiple layers of protection from third-party access. SIM use at the charging station is restricted by an IMEI lock to prevent malicious devices from connecting.
Our fully managed cloud network gives CSPs like our customer the confidence to handle sensitive information through a mobile app and charging network backend. Traffic from the charging stations to the provider’s network is contained in a private environment, ensuring it cannot be accessed via the public internet.
