Irish-British startup Go Eve said it has secured UL 2202 certification for its DockChain EV charging system and begun US production in Michigan, marking a key step toward expanding its scalable DC fast-charging solution across North America.
DockChain uses a patented “daisy chain” design that allows a single Level 3 DC fast charger to power multiple charging points, cutting infrastructure costs and reducing queuing for fleet operators, workplaces and public networks. The company said its system can deliver DC charging performance at costs comparable to slower Level 2 setups.
“DockChain rewrites the economics of DC fast charging,” Go Eve CEO Hugh Sheehy said. “It enables more parking bays to access rapid charging from a single power source, allowing faster deployment at lower costs.”
Production is underway in Dearborn, Michigan, through a partnership with Goodwill Integrated Solutions. “This technology has the potential to redefine EV charging infrastructure,” said Karl Schneider, vice president at Goodwill Integrated Solutions.
Go Eve, a spin-out from University College Dublin and Imperial College London, is raising $3.5 million to support its North American expansion. The company said it is also working with partners including Uptime, Mid Cour and the Merlin Group to target fleet operators.
The UL 2202 certification, verified by Intertek with Listing Number 5033241, confirms DockChain’s compliance with electrical protection, fire safety and thermal performance standards, placing Go Eve among established players such as ABB and Tesla.
