Otovo and InCharge Energy Join Forces to Bundle Solar, Storage and EV Charging Service

Commercial properties in the United States that install solar arrays, battery storage and EV chargers often end up juggling a separate maintenance contract for every piece of equipment. Otovo, which supplies behind-the-meter energy services to households and businesses, and InCharge Energy, a specialist in installing and servicing EV charging hardware, have now teamed up to collapse that fragmented vendor list into a single relationship.

Under the arrangement, the two firms will market each other’s preventive maintenance programs, while field work stays in-house: each partner dispatches its own technicians rather than subcontracting to the other. Otovo’s Endurance platform sits at the center of the operation, meaning a job that starts with either company is logged, assigned and closed out against one shared site record.

William J. Berger, Otovo’s CEO, framed the tie-up as a response to how customers actually buy energy equipment. In his view, the fact that assets originate from different systems should not force a site owner to coordinate multiple vendors, and routing work orders through Endurance gives them a single point of contact and a single contract instead of a patchwork of agreements.

InCharge Energy CEO Rich Mohr stressed the human side of the equation, noting that hardware on its own cannot keep critical energy infrastructure running and that skilled field personnel are what make the difference. He said both companies have invested heavily in technical staff and electrical service capabilities and intend to keep doing so as these systems grow more central to customers’ operations. Pairing InCharge’s InControl software with Endurance, he added, should give field teams deeper insight into asset condition and support a more proactive style of managing chargers, solar, storage and the supporting electrical infrastructure.

The partnership reflects a broader trend in the EV charging and distributed energy space, where operators are looking for fewer service contracts and better visibility across mixed equipment fleets. By aligning their service networks rather than merging, Otovo and InCharge aim to cover commercial customers across the US without asking them to choose between solar expertise and charging know-how.
