Transforming Streetlights into EV Charging Hubs


he impact of this partnership is more than technical—it’s symbolic. This short video, filmed at a now-disabled oil refinery, showcases how we’re transitioning from old energy models to cleaner, future-ready solutions.
Watch the transformation in action here! It’s a powerful glimpse into how technology can drive meaningful change.

At Omniflow®, we’re confident and optimistic about our revolutionary partnership with Galp Electric, where we’re introducing a solution capable of redefining how urban spaces can support cleaner, more sustainable mobility solutions. Together, we’re promoting an innovative way to transform existing streetlight poles into smart charging hubs for electric vehicles (EVs), tapping into the potential of over 300 million streetlights worldwide that could support EV charging infrastructure, combining efficiency, sustainability, and smarter infrastructure.


Why This Solution Makes Sense for Cities and Operators

Retrofitting Traditional Poles: A Smart and Sustainable Approach

Our retrofitting process involves maintaining the existing streetlight poles and replacing only the luminaire with our innovative solution. This approach minimizes waste and reduces installation costs while upgrading urban infrastructure for modern needs. The award-winning design of our luminaire allows it to house multiple services, making it a future-proof choice for cities.


Benefits of Retrofitting with Omniflow:

  • Cost Savings: Municipalities save on material and labor costs by reusing poles.

  • Environmental Impact: Less waste and lower carbon footprint by avoiding full pole replacements.

  • Streamlined Deployment: A faster installation process reduces disruption in public spaces.


Additional Services Possible with Omniflow’s Solution:


For municipalities and EV charging operators, our solution brings a range of practical benefits:

  • Cost-Effective Expansion: By leveraging existing streetlight infrastructure, we reduce the need for new installations, making EV charger deployment faster and more affordable.

  • Optimized Energy Use: Our system integrates renewable energy and improves efficiency in street lighting, freeing up power capacity for EV charging.

  • Better Urban Mobility: Smart hubs address the critical lack of charging options in dense urban areas, where cars are often parked for long periods during the day.


Solving Key Challenges in Urban Streetlights EV Charging Hubs

One of the biggest hurdles for EV adoption in cities is access to convenient and affordable charging infrastructure. Private chargers are often not an option for urban residents, and many vehicles sit idle during work hours. Our solution directly targets these challenges:

  • Charging Where It Matters: We enable smarter use of city infrastructure by turning idle parking spots under streetlights into charging stations.

  • Massification and Sustainability: Cities can deploy these hubs quickly while meeting their sustainability goals with renewable-powered lighting and charging.
