A Canterbury-based EV technology which circumvents the peak 6 o'clock charging surge has just received a funding boost. Christchurch startup Evnex is bridging the gap between the electric car owner and the electricity industry.

The team at Evnex has developed and is now installing a fast at-home re-charge unit, which sets timings for when electricity is plentiful and cheap.

Evnex has recently raised $2.7 million in a seed round led by technology investor Movac and Sir Stephen Tindall.
