After that, the &#8216;Shell Sky&#8217; will be switched off, and Shell Recharge Solutions stickers will be removed from the charging stations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph \">Shell Sky is a cloud-based software for managing charging stations. It was initially developed by the software startup Greenlots, which Shell acquired in 2019. Greenlots was rebranded as Shell Recharge <a href=\"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/2021\/11\/03\/newmotion-greenlots-rebranded-as-shell-recharge-solutions\/\">at the beginning of 2022<\/a>. Fortunately for existing customers, it is hardware-independent and uses OCPP, an open protocol for connecting and managing charging stations. That means charging stations using the management software can be migrated to other OCPP-compatible software providers, either remotely or on-site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph \">Apparently, Shell also recommends alternative solutions to its software customers. \u201cShell has MOUs with three [charge point management system] CPMS providers and would be happy to make introductions to these companies if interested,\u201d it says in an email to a customer, cited by the US portal <em>Electrek<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph \">The same email also states that Shell Recharge is \u201cfocusing our investments where we have a competitive advantage.\u201d Accordingly, Shell intends to invest in Shell&#8217;s own public charging network, which currently consists of more than 70,000 charging stations worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"ad-space\" >\n      <div class=\"ad-space-block\">\n      <div class=\"adspace not-mobile rectangle-4\" id=\"article-content-1\"><\/div>\n      <div class=\"adspace not-desktop topmobile-2\" id=\"article-content-1-mobile\"><\/div>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph \">ChargeLab, which recently completed the migration of more than 1,400 JuiceBox EV chargers after Enel X Way North America <a href=\"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/2024\/10\/05\/enel-x-way-north-america-ceases-operations\/\">discontinued its electric mobility business in October<\/a>, has already announced support for Shell Sky customers looking for a new charging management system. Pulse Energy is also offering migration support for neighbourhood EV charging stations using Shell Sky software.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph \">\u201cWe applaud Shell\u2019s decision to notify customers at least 90 days before turning off its software,\u201d said Shaun Stewart, ChargeLab\u2019s President. \u201cAt the same time, this remains a short window to complete the steps necessary to migrate to a new back-end. We encourage customers using Shell Sky\u2122 to contact us as soon as possible to start the migration process.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph \">Shell is also currently restructuring its charging business in other ways: Dutch company 50five <a href=\"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/2024\/12\/18\/shell-transfers-home-workplace-charging-business-to-50five\/\">will take over responsibility for Shell Recharge Solutions&#8217; home and workplace chargers<\/a> &#8211; in a total of six markets, including Germany.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph \"><a href=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/2024\/12\/30\/shell-recharge-exits-us-ev-charger-software-market\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">electrek.co<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/chargelab.co\/blog\/shell-recharge-migration\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">chargelab.co <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shell Recharge dice ahora que s\u00f3lo seguir\u00e1 apoyando las estaciones de recarga de terceros hasta el 30 de abril.
