No, But we cover a huge majority of the actors
Coverage in Belgium
Mbrella Charge has established connections with the vast majority of public chargers in Belgium. This means that as a user, you'll have access to a wide range of charging stations across the country. Our partnerships include major Charge Point Operators (CPOs) such as:
LMS (Last Mile Solutions)
Optimile
Greenflux
Total Energies
Blink (formerly Bluecorner)
Mbrella Charge operates as an e-Mobility Service Provider (e-MSP), focusing on providing you with the best possible charging experience. We establish connections with charging networks in two primary ways:
Direct Connections (OCPI): We have direct peer-to-peer connections with many CPOs, especially in Belgium. These direct connections often result in lower fees and more reliable service.
Roaming Partnerships: For charging stations that we don't have direct connections with, especially abroad, we utilize roaming services. Mbrella Charge partners with Hubject, a leading roaming hub, to expand our network coverage 1. This allows you to use your Mbrella Charge pass at many additional charging points across Europe.
Coverage Outside Belgium
While our focus is on providing comprehensive coverage in Belgium, you can still use your Mbrella Charge pass in many locations across Europe, thanks to our roaming agreements with Hubject. However, it's important to note that coverage may vary in different countries.
How to Check Compatibility
To ensure you can charge at a specific location:
Use the Mbrella Charge app: Our app shows a map of compatible charging stations. If a station appears in the app, your Mbrella Charge pass should be accepted there.
Look for network logos: Many charging stations display logos of compatible networks or payment methods. Look for the Mbrella Charge logo or our roaming partners.
Check before traveling: If you're planning a trip, especially abroad, it's a good idea to check the app for compatible stations along your route.
Types of Charging Stations
Mbrella Charge works with various types of charging stations:
Public AC charging stations
DC fast charging stations (e.g., Fastned, Ionity)
Semi-public charging stations (e.g., office chargers)
Home charging stations (when connected to our network)
Potential Limitations
While we strive for extensive coverage, there may be some situations where Mbrella Charge might not work:
Private home chargers not connected to our network
Some office chargers without proper integration
Charging points not covered by our direct connections or roaming agreements
