“Renault E-charge Home” is born: the package of integrated and all-inclusive charging solutions, developed by Renault together with collaboration of Enel X, the global business line of the Enel Group that offers services to accelerate innovation and drive the energy transition. The new solutions are available among the accessories of the Renault electric range, for an integrated experience in the vehicle purchase process at the Dealership: choice of the tailor-made solution, financing of the amount together with the vehicle and, finally, customer support in all phases.
With Renault E-Charge Home customers will be able to choose between three different “turnkey” packages, which vary according to the power of the Enel X Pro Cellular JuiceBox: "E-Charge Home 3" with 3,7 kW JuiceBox, "E-Charge Home 7" with 7,4 kW JuiceBox and "E-Charge Home 22” with 22 kW JuiceBox. The Enel X JuiceBox Pro Cellular is the smart home charging station, equipped with dynamic power regulation to avoid overloading the electricity grid and to enable smart charging functions.
Thanks to the WI-FI and Bluetooth connection, it is possible to plan and monitor the recharging operations remotely via the'JuicePass app of Enel X. In addition, the E-Charge Home solutions include numerous services designed with Enel X to assist the customer in all phases of the customer journey: home inspection to verify the adequacy of the electrical system and the supply of electricity, and provide advice on any necessary interventions, increases in contractual power, condominium authorizations; installation of the JuiceBox and connection to the electricity meter; remote technical assistance through a dedicated Contact Center; two-year warranty and extraordinary maintenance.
The “E-Charge Home” solutions are compatible with all electric and plug-in hybrid models from the Renault E-TECH range: Twingo E-Tech Electric, Zoe E-Tech Electric, Kangoo E-Tech Electric, Master E-Tech Electric, Captur E-Tech Plug-in Hybrid and Mégane E-Tech Plug-in Hybrid. For example, the Renault Zoe with a 7,4 kW JuiceBox performs a full charge in one night and with a 22 kW JuiceBox in three hours. Renault Twingo Electric with the 7,4 kW JuiceBox performs a full charge in four hours and with the 22 kW JuiceBox in less than two hours. At the launch of "E-Charge", customers will have access to an exclusive offer on the vehicle at the heart of its 100% electric range: Renault Zoe E-Tech Electric.
