Pinergy, the smart energy provider of 100% clean electricity, has today announced Kearys Motor Group as its latest energy partner. This new partnership sees Pinergy grow its business further in the Munster region with Kearys, one of Ireland’s leading motor dealerships, celebrating 40 years in business.

Kearys Motor Group is one of the largest motor franchise dealers in Cork and sells new and used vehicles across multiple brands including Hyundai, Nissan, BMW/MINI, Renault, Dacia and Carstore, Ireland’s largest used car supermarket. Kearys operates out of 10 dealerships, located in Cork City, Mallow and Midleton as well two Carstores in Dublin and Cork. Importantly, a large part of Kearys’ organisational ethos is in supporting customers to achieve their sustainability goals, making them an ideal partner for Pinergy.

Kearys is leading the charge in Munster for EV adoption and Pinergy will be working with the group to supply commercial EV charging solutions, including offering everyone a free motoring carbon audit. This gives fellow Cork companies the opportunity to address their carbon footprint, particularly in terms of their fleet, tax savings and financial incentives available. Pinergy will add to Kearys’ already established expertise to create further offerings, advice and assistance to Cork and Munster businesses.

Commenting on this latest initiative, Damian Boylan, Pinergy’s Corporate Sales Manager for the Munster Region said, “We are delighted to be able to partner with Kearys Motor Group. They are a fantastic example of a large family business doing their part to support a more sustainable future and helping to educate and provide greener opportunities for their customer base.”

He continued: “It’s important for all of us at Pinergy to promote EV charging solutions and our green initiative throughout the entire country.  We’re very grateful for this opportunity to be able to work with such a well-established Cork business and help to continue to drive EV charging solutions and the green initiative in Cork and the wider Munster region.”

Pinergy’s EV charging product, ‘Pinergy Drive’, offers customers the ability to set up EV charging points from a business or home as part of a complete energy solution package. Using Pinergy’s smart metering technology, business customers can uniquely have separate tariffs for their EV charge point, so they can get complete visibility on their specific EV consumption and separate billings.

Pinergy is working closely with some of Ireland’s most progressive businesses in helping them play their role in creating a sustainable energy future. Pinergy underpins each of its partner technologies with smart energy management software that provides customers with data to more easily monitor and track their energy usage, getting instant real-time visibility on energy consumption & costs.

This announcement follows Pinergy’s recent partnership with Ohme, a specialist provider of innovative smart charging technology for electric vehicles. A first to market with Pinergy in Ireland, the Ohme EV smart charging technology is set to play a significant role in Ireland’s transition to electric vehicles, by helping Irish customers to automatically find the best EV charging tariff available to them through Pinergy Drive’s smart metering technology.
