Fully integrated fleet management, maximum data sovereignty and state-of-the-art cyber security
Juice Technology AG, manufacturer of charging stations and software, leader in mobile charging stations for electric vehicles, is introducing a new API for the JUICE EV FLEET SOLUTION, an interface developed specifically for electric vehicle fleets. It enables companies to seamlessly embed their charging infrastructure into existing ERP, financial or management systems. The automated processing of charging data creates the basis for efficient and audit-proof billing processes.
Data flow from the charging infrastructure to the company software
Companies that have their own management systems generally prefer to handle the charging management of their electric vehicle fleets internally rather than outsourcing it to external service providers. API interfaces enable direct machine access to charging stations and charging data. The new Juice API now gives companies the opportunity to integrate the JUICE BOOSTER 3 air mobile wallboxes directly into their systems and manage them centrally. This streamlines administrative processes, minimises sources of error and increases operational reliability.
A milestone for professional fleet management
For Christoph Erni, CEO and founder of Juice Technology, the new API is a decisive step forward: “Our development team implemented this technologically sophisticated solution with the utmost precision in an impressively short time. Until now, user administration, device management and charging data evaluation were carried out exclusively via the j+ pilot app, which is available for the JUICE BOOSTER 3 air on mobile devices or in a browser. With the Juice API, it is now also possible to access devices and charging histories via a client application that can be seamlessly integrated into the enterprise software of our fleet customers.”
Easy integration thanks to OpenAPI
The API provides all the information relevant to centralised charging station management. This includes device data and the complete charging history with authorisations, date, amount of energy charged and the accrued costs from the stored tariff model.
Since the API is based entirely on OpenAPI standards, implementation in target systems is greatly simplified. Companies only need to develop a client application that connects to the interface, retrieves data and processes it in their own system.
Bank-level cybersecurity
The Juice API was designed from the ground up for maximum data security and strict compliance requirements based on zero-trust principles. Stefan Hölzl, project manager of the API development team, explains: “Our solution follows the OWASP Top 10, a widely recognised reference for the most critical security risks in web applications. It provides robust defence mechanisms against unauthorised access and tampering, is built on a consistently secure architectural design and ensures the integrity of all processed data. As part of our security roadmap, we continuously review and optimise these configurations.”
Instead of passwords, short-lived digital keys are used, which are automatically generated for each request and immediately cryptographically verified. User-specific data isolation ensures that access is strictly limited to the user’s own devices and loading data.
Data processing is also subject to the highest security standards: the API only accepts parameterised database queries, thus reliably preventing typical manipulation attempts that can occur with classic web applications. Since the system works without sessions and cookies, risks such as hijacked user sessions or attacks via fake requests are also eliminated.
The technical basis of the API is entirely cloud-based. It runs on a modern, automatically scalable infrastructure that allows updates during operation and processes application services separately from one another. This ensures high stability and protects sensitive loading data according to the same security principles used in the financial and healthcare sectors.
Who is the API designed for?
With the new API, Juice is adding a strategically important component to its JUICE EV FLEET SOLUTION. The modern and highly secure interface is aimed at companies and operators of large fleets who want to seamlessly integrate their charging infrastructure into existing ERP or financial systems and automatically process charging data for billing purposes – without relinquishing control over their data. The API meets high standards of compliance, data security and efficiency and lays the foundation for professionally scalable station and fleet management.
JUICE EV FLEET SOLUTION
The fleet solution at a glance:
The JUICE BOOSTER 3 air provides a solution for every charging situation – be it via a wall socket at home, using an existing wall charger or at public charging stations while on the road. With the JUICE BOOSTER 3 air, charging becomes uncomplicated and transparent. The JUICE EV FLEET SOLUTION offers numerous benefits:
- One solution for all scenarios: The JUICE BOOSTER 3 air covers all charging situations, regardless of whether these involve wall sockets or charging stations with or without cables.
- No installation required: Employees can simply charge from the very first day. Operation is a breeze via the app, and local load management is also included.
- Accurate measurement: The JUICE BOOSTER 3 air not only serves as a charger, but is primarily a precision current meter, which measures the charged kWh with reliable accuracy (in MID quality).
- Clear evaluation and billing: The backend provides a comprehensive overview of the charging data for the entire fleet. The charging processes are accurately recorded and included in the monthly bill. At the end of each month, fleet managers receive a clearly arranged bill detailing the charging costs for all drivers along with a separate cost overview for each employee.
- Accurate charging allocation: Along with the JUICE BOOSTER 3 air, employees can be provided with charge cards. This enables easy and accurate distinction between private and business-related charging costs.
- Company retains device ownership: No installation is necessary, meaning that no dismantling is required either. This also eliminates any potential costs for the company in the case of departing employees.
- Affordable charging at home: At-home charging is much more cost-efficient and timesaving than relying on public charging stations. Charging can take place at night when electricity is cheaper. There is no need to travel to a public charging station, which also eliminates the waiting times that would otherwise produce additional costs for the company. Employees can wake up to a freshly charged battery every morning without any additional effort required on their part.
- Conservation of vehicle batteries: A high proportion of AC charging extends the service life of the battery. This in turn increases the residual value of the vehicle.
- Shipping by Juice: To further reduce the effort involved, Juice can also send the devices to the employees on behalf of the company.
Billing service overview:
- Basic: Charging receipts – ongoing user management and reviews & delivery of quality-assured charging receipts in digital form – up to 20 users: flat rate EUR/CHF 100,– / EUR/CHF 5,–/user:in/month
- Plus: Reimbursement service – additional monthly reimbursement service for each individual driver, consolidated invoice for all users, CSV data extracts – up to 20 users flat rate EUR/CHF 200,– / EUR/CHF 10,–/user/month
- Service: Fleet Management – additionally, onboarding of the JUICE BOOSTER 3 air into the fleet account, management of end users and documentation to the company's fleet management
