Yoshi Mobility joins CALSTART to accelerate the advancement of EV charging technologies
Yoshi Mobility has announced a strategic partnership with CALSTART, a national nonprofit focused on clean transportation development. This collaboration comes after Yoshi Mobility's fuel division was acquired by EZFill Holdings (NASDAQ: EZFL) last month, allowing the company to focus on non-fuel fleet services and electric vehicle solutions.
The partnership aims to develop and demonstrate cutting-edge EV charging technologies, accelerate market adoption, and collaborate on policy initiatives. Yoshi Mobility currently provides EV charging solutions to major OEMs, autonomous vehicle companies, and rideshare operators, serving enterprise customers managing hundreds of light-duty vehicles requiring up to 1 megawatt of energy daily. The company offers gap-charging options for fleet operators without utility grid access, along with on-site preventative maintenance and virtual vehicle inspections for partners like Uber and Turo.
Yoshi Mobility ha annunciato una partnership strategica con CALSTART, un'organizzazione no-profit nazionale focalizzata sullo sviluppo dei trasporti puliti. Questa collaborazione arriva dopo che il dipartimento carburanti di Yoshi Mobility è stato acquisito da EZFill Holdings (NASDAQ: EZFL) il mese scorso, consentendo all'azienda di concentrarsi su servizi per flotte non legati al carburante e soluzioni per veicoli elettrici.
La partnership mira a sviluppare e dimostrare tecnologie innovative di ricarica per veicoli elettrici, accelerare l'adozione nel mercato e collaborare su iniziative politiche. Attualmente, Yoshi Mobility fornisce soluzioni di ricarica per veicoli elettrici a importanti costruttori di veicoli originali (OEM), aziende di veicoli autonomi e operatori di rideshare, servendo clienti aziendali che gestiscono centinaia di veicoli leggeri che richiedono fino a 1 megawatt di energia al giorno. L'azienda offre opzioni di ricarica alternative per gli operatori di flotte senza accesso alla rete elettrica, insieme a manutenzione preventiva in loco e ispezioni virtuali dei veicoli per partner come Uber e Turo.
Yoshi Mobility ha anunciado una asociación estratégica con CALSTART, una organización sin fines de lucro nacional centrada en el desarrollo del transporte limpio. Esta colaboración se produce después de que la división de combustible de Yoshi Mobility fuera adquirida por EZFill Holdings (NASDAQ: EZFL) el mes pasado, lo que permite a la empresa centrarse en servicios de flotas no relacionados con combustible y soluciones para vehículos eléctricos.
La asociación tiene como objetivo desarrollar y demostrar tecnologías avanzadas de carga de vehículos eléctricos, acelerar la adopción en el mercado y colaborar en iniciativas políticas. Actualmente, Yoshi Mobility proporciona soluciones de carga de vehículos eléctricos a importantes OEM, empresas de vehículos autónomos y operadores de rideshare, atendiendo a clientes empresariales que gestionan cientos de vehículos ligeros que requieren hasta 1 megavatio de energía al día. La empresa ofrece opciones de carga alternativa para operadores de flotas sin acceso a la red eléctrica, junto con mantenimiento preventivo en el lugar e inspecciones virtuales de vehículos para socios como Uber y Turo.

이 파트너십의 목표는 최첨단 전기차 충전 기술을 개발하고 시연하며, 시장 채택을 가속화하고 정책 이니셔티브에 협력하는 것입니다. 요시 모빌리티는 현재 주요 OEM, 자율주행 차량 회사 및 승차 공유 운영자에게 전기차 충전 솔루션을 제공하고 있으며, 하루 최대 1메가와트의 에너지를 필요로 하는 수백 대의 경량 차량을 운영하는 기업 고객을 지원합니다. 이 회사는 전력망에 접근할 수 없는 플릿 운영자를 위한 갭 충전 옵션과, Uber 및 Turo와 같은 파트너를 위한 현장 예방 유지 보수 및 가상 차량 검사 서비스를 제공합니다.
Yoshi Mobility a annoncé un partenariat stratégique avec CALSTART, une organisation à but non lucratif nationale axée sur le développement de transports propres. Cette collaboration intervient après l'acquisition du secteur des carburants de Yoshi Mobility par EZFill Holdings (NASDAQ: EZFL) le mois dernier, permettant à l'entreprise de se concentrer sur les services de flotte non liés aux carburants et sur les solutions pour véhicules électriques.
Ce partenariat vise à développer et à démontrer des technologies de recharge de véhicules électriques de pointe, à accélérer l'adoption sur le marché et à collaborer sur des initiatives politiques. Actuellement, Yoshi Mobility fournit des solutions de recharge pour véhicules électriques à de grands OEM, des entreprises de véhicules autonomes et des opérateurs de covoiturage, servant des clients entreprises gérant des centaines de véhicules légers nécessitant jusqu'à 1 mégawatt d'énergie par jour. L'entreprise propose des options de recharge aux opérateurs de flotte sans accès à un réseau électrique, ainsi qu'un entretien préventif sur place et des inspections virtuelles de véhicules pour des partenaires comme Uber et Turo.
Yoshi Mobility hat eine strategische Partnerschaft mit CALSTART angekündigt, einer nationalen gemeinnützigen Organisation, die sich auf die Entwicklung von sauberem Verkehr konzentriert. Diese Zusammenarbeit erfolgt, nachdem die Kraftstoffsparte von Yoshi Mobility letzten Monat von EZFill Holdings (NASDAQ: EZFL) übernommen wurde, was dem Unternehmen erlaubt, sich auf nicht-kraftstoffbezogene Flottenservices und Elektrofahrzeuglösungen zu konzentrieren.
Das Ziel der Partnerschaft ist die Entwicklung und Demonstration fortschrittlicher EV-Ladetechnologien, die Beschleunigung der Marktakzeptanz und die Zusammenarbeit bei politischen Initiativen. Yoshi Mobility bietet derzeit EV-Ladelösungen für große OEMs, Unternehmen für autonome Fahrzeuge und Mitfahrdienste an und bedient Unternehmenskunden, die Hunderte von leichten Nutzfahrzeugen führen, die täglich bis zu 1 Megawatt Energie benötigen. Das Unternehmen bietet Ladeoptionen für Flottenbetreiber ohne Zugang zum Stromnetz sowie vor Ort durchgeführte präventive Wartung und virtuelle Fahrzeuginspektionen für Partner wie Uber und Turo an.

Insights
The partnership between Yoshi Mobility and CALSTART, while appearing promising for EV charging technology development, has minimal direct impact on EZFill Holdings' (EZFL) current operations and stock value. After acquiring Yoshi Mobility's fuel division last month, EZFL's exposure to this partnership is tangential at best. The collaboration primarily benefits Yoshi Mobility's non-fuel operations, which are no longer part of EZFL's business model.
For context, EZFL's micro-cap status (
The only potential relevance lies in understanding the broader industry transition towards EVs, which could impact EZFL's long-term strategic planning for its fuel delivery business. However, given the current early stage of EV adoption and EZFL's focus on traditional fuel delivery, this partnership announcement has negligible impact on investment considerations.
The partnership will continue to develop and implement innovative EV charging solutions
Last month, Yoshi Mobility's fuel division was acquired by EZFill Holdings (NASDAQ: EZFL) so the company is now focused on non-fuel fleet services and enabling an electric future. The partnership between Yoshi Mobility and CALSTART leverages the latter's extensive experience in clean transportation development and Yoshi Mobility's innovative approach to EV charging and mobility technologies. By joining forces, the two organizations will work together to:
- Develop and demonstrate cutting-edge EV charging technologies
- Accelerate market adoption of these emerging technologies
- Collaborate on policy initiatives to support continued EV charging innovation
"This partnership is one of many steps we're taking towards a broader rollout of our mobile EV charging solutions," said Bryan Frist, CEO & Co-Founder of Yoshi Mobility. "By collaborating with CALSTART, we're not just developing these new technologies - we're working together on where they can be most quickly deployed to fill gaps in the EV charging ecosystem."
To date, Yoshi Mobility has provided EV charging solutions to major OEMs, autonomous vehicle companies, and rideshare operators across the country. Its enterprise customers consist of large EV operators managing hundreds of light-duty vehicles requiring up to 1 megawatt of energy per day. The EV charging solutions provide a turnkey gap-charging option for EV fleet operators who do not have a way to get connected to the utility grid to charge their vehicles. Yoshi Mobility also provides on-site preventative maintenance for fleets and virtual vehicle inspections for partners like Uber and Turo.
CALSTART's proven track record of driving innovation in clean transportation since 1992 provides a robust framework for this collaboration. The nonprofit's comprehensive approach - spanning technology development, market acceleration, policy work, and member support - aligns with Yoshi Mobility's commitment to innovative mobility solutions.
"We're excited to welcome Yoshi Mobility to our team of clean transportation leaders," said Jared Schnader, Vice President of Members Services at CALSTART.
