In a bold move to redefine the electric vehicle (EV) ownership experience, Nissan has partnered with Octopus Energy—widely recognized as the UK’s number one energy provider—to launch the next-generation Nissan Charge app. This collaboration signals a major leap in Nissan’s commitment to digital innovation and electrification, aiming to make charging more intuitive, accessible, and cost-effective for EV drivers across Europe.
At the heart of the upgrade is the integration of Octopus Electroverse, the award-winning EV charging platform. Thanks to this synergy, Nissan drivers now have seamless access to over 1 million charge points from more than 1,200 charging operators, including well-known names like IONITY, Allego, Aral pulse, and TotalEnergies.
Available now on both the Apple App Store and Google Play, the revamped Nissan Charge app is more than just a facelift. It’s a powerful tool for the modern EV driver—delivering real-time charger availability, advanced filtering options by speed or plug type, and exclusive pricing through participating networks.
What’s more, the app is growing fast. With 500 new chargers added daily, the platform is quickly becoming one of the most comprehensive EV charging solutions in Europe.
“The new Nissan Charge app is an important step in our mission to make electric driving seamless and accessible,” said Soufiane El Khomri, Director at Nissan Energy. “By introducing future-ready features, we’re not only helping drivers connect to Europe’s vast charging network, but we’re also laying the foundation for EVs to play an active role in the energy system of tomorrow.”
The sleek, user-friendly interface ensures that drivers can create an account in minutes, link payment options like Google or Apple Pay, and even request a free Nissan Charge card to get started. But Nissan’s vision stretches far beyond convenience. The app is part of the brand’s broader MyNissan energy and mobility ecosystem, tying into larger goals like the EV36Zero initiative and the rollout of next-gen EVs, including the all-new MICRA and LEAF.
Looking ahead, Nissan Charge will introduce even more cutting-edge capabilities, such as Plug & Charge (PnC) for secure, automatic charging sessions, and Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) functionality. V2G will allow EVs to stabilize the grid and even feed electricity back into the system—potentially lowering home charging costs and contributing to a more sustainable energy model.
“For the first time, Electroverse’s technology has been integrated into another brand’s charging app—and we’re thrilled to see that debut with Nissan,” added Matt Davies, Director at Octopus Electroverse. “As EVs become mainstream, drivers want a charging experience as smart as their vehicle. By bringing our cutting-edge technology into the Nissan Charge app, we’re delivering the best of Electroverse—simple access to 80% of all chargers across Europe, money-saving discounts, and quick, hassle-free payments.”
As EV adoption accelerates, digital tools like Nissan Charge will be essential in bridging the gap between vehicles and the evolving energy infrastructure. With this launch, Nissan and Octopus Energy are proving that the future of electric mobility is not only electrifying—it’s also intelligent, integrated, and driver-first.
