FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Outlet Launches “Reserve Charge” at Emerge Miami, Introducing a Distributed EV Charging Network Powered by Everyday Hosts
Miami, FL — April 22, 2026 — Outlet today announced the launch of Reserve Charge at the Emerge Conference in Miami, unveiling a next-generation EV charging platform that transforms residential and commercial properties into on-demand charging nodes.
Built to address one of the biggest barriers to electric vehicle adoption—access to reliable charging—Reserve Charge introduces a host-powered network model, enabling EV owners to share existing charging infrastructure and create a scalable, decentralized energy grid.
A New Model for EV Charging
Unlike traditional fixed charging stations, Reserve Charge leverages existing residential and commercial chargers to rapidly expand network coverage without the cost and delay of new infrastructure buildout.
Through the platform:
- Hosts list available chargers and earn income from unused capacity
- Drivers locate and access charging nearby
- Outlet manages access, payments, and network optimization
Hosts can charge EVs and other powered devices, expanding the platform’s utility beyond vehicles while maintaining a simple, accessible experience.
Designed for Rapid Deployment
Reserve Charge operates using a time-based billing model (per minute / session), simplifying pricing and reducing regulatory complexity often associated with energy resale.
The platform is also hardware-agnostic, working with existing charging setups so hosts can join and begin earning without installing new equipment.
Live Pilot Demonstrates Real-World Demand
Outlet has launched a commercial pilot in Brooklyn, New York, featuring a Level 3 (DC fast charging) host location serving Uber drivers on demand.
The pilot validates:
- Strong demand in dense urban environments
- Immediate use from rideshare and fleet drivers
- The effectiveness of a distributed, host-powered charging network
Backed by Breathing Lion
Reserve Charge is backed at the seed stage by Breathing Lion, a firm focused on supporting scalable, high-impact infrastructure and technology platforms.
“EV adoption is accelerating, but infrastructure is struggling to keep pace,” said a representative from Breathing Lion. “Outlet’s model unlocks existing assets to create a faster, more flexible path to scale.”
Building the Future of Energy Access
As demand for electric mobility continues to grow, Reserve Charge positions Outlet at the forefront of a new category of infrastructure—one that is:
- Distributed
- On-demand
- Built on existing assets
By combining a host-driven network with a scalable platform, Outlet is laying the groundwork for a more accessible and efficient energy ecosystem.
