Nerava and Mōdal Partner to Make a Safer, Smarter Charging Experience for EV Drivers

In July 2026, Mōdal Group and Nerava launched Soket Club, a connected charging platform powered by Nerava.  

Soket Club is designed to create a safer, smarter charging experience for electric vehicle (EV) drivers. The platform allows users to connect their vehicles, verify charging sessions, monitor charger reliability, track charging history, receive detailed session insights, and access safety-focused benefits. The goal is to give drivers greater visibility and confidence every time they plug in. It is connected to the EVject ecosystem. EVject, producer of a safety breakaway connector, was founded by Mōdal Group. 

Together, Mōdal and Nerava are laying the foundation for a trusted intelligence layer for EV charging. By combining innovative hardware, connected software, and verified data, the partnership aims to improve safety, transparency, and reliability across the growing electric vehicle charging ecosystem.

Nerava supports the experience with its consent-based software infrastructure which powers the platform. Nerava verifies charging sessions, detects anomalies, maintains charging histories, enables safety-related data sharing, and creates a trusted record of charging activity through a verified charging session ledger.

The partnership represents more than just a driver-focused app. As Mōdal continues to introduce next generation hardware solutions, EVject devices have the potential to serve as physical endpoints within Nerava’s verified charging network. This approach combines software intelligence with hardware generated data, creating multiple ways to understand and validate charging behavior.

As EV adoption accelerates, charging safety is emerging as both a hardware and software challenge. EVject addresses the physical side of the equation with its patented breakaway charging adapter, allowing drivers to safely disconnect and depart in emergency situations. Soket Club complements this protection by providing a connected digital experience that gives drivers deeper insights into every charging session.

“Soket Club extends our mission beyond physical devices. Together with Nerava, we can give drivers a connected experience around their vehicle, charging sessions, and Mōdal devices while creating a foundation for sponsor-funded safety and loyalty programs,” said Kreg Peeler, Inventor and Chairman of Mōdal Group. 

James Kirk, Founder and CEO of Nerava, agrees. “Charging behavior becomes useful when drivers can connect once, grant clear consent, and turn each session into a verified event. Mōdal brings trusted hardware and distribution. Nerava provides the connectivity, consent, and infrastructure that make those events useful to drivers and partners,” said Kirk.

Nerava Network, The Consented Network for Verified EV Charging Behavior

Nerava Network describes itself as a network for verified EV charging behavior, designed to transform charging sessions into actionable data that can benefit drivers, businesses, utilities, fleets, insurers, and charging infrastructure providers.

At the core of the platform is a verified charging session ledger. Drivers connect their vehicles through partner applications, provide consent for data sharing, and allow Nerava to verify charging sessions using consented vehicle data and other supported charging evidence. Each charging event is then recorded as a permissioned, verifiable record that can be used for reporting, rewards programs, analytics, and other services.

Nerava aims to address a growing challenge within the EV industry: fragmented data across automakers, charging networks, and individual apps. By creating a neutral platform of record, the company seeks to provide a clearer picture of how, when, and where EVs are being charged. This information can help merchants better understand EV customer behavior, utilities manage charging demand, fleets track vehicle usage, and insurers build programs based on verified charging activity rather than estimates.

Nerava’s Sponsored Missions and Benefits Built on Verified Charging

Nerava allows brands, merchants, utilities, insurers, and charging partners to fund programs and initiatives based on consented, verified charging behavior. Benefits may include badges, charging benefits, merchant experiences, prize entries, or contributions to a cause. Partners receive reporting governed by consent and contract rather than unrestricted access to driver data. As public charging infrastructure expands and EV adoption continues to rise, companies are increasingly looking beyond the charging hardware itself and focusing on enhancing the driver experience during charging sessions.

Nerava’s EV charging rewards program transforms charging downtime into an opportunity for rewards, local commerce, and customer engagement. Because EV drivers often spend 15 to 45 minutes at a charging station, Nerava helps connect them with nearby restaurants, coffee shops, retailers, and other businesses while they wait. Drivers can earn cash rewards for verified charging sessions while merchants gain targeted access to customers who are already nearby.

Mōdal, a Transportation Technology Company Focused on Developing Innovative Solutions For the EV Transition

Mōdal is a transportation technology company focused on developing innovative solutions for electric vehicles, autonomous vehicles, recreational vehicles, and connected transportation systems. Founded by a team of engineers and technology professionals, the company is dedicated to improving safety, convenience, and efficiency for drivers through a combination of hardware, software, and intelligent mobility technologies.

The company is best known for EVject. The technology addresses a unique safety concern for electric vehicle drivers by providing a patented breakaway charging connector designed to let a driver unlock the charging connection and depart without exiting the vehicle during an emergency. The connector separates during departure and protects both vehicle and charging equipment.

In addition to EVject, Mōdal is developing several products aimed at simplifying vehicle ownership and transportation. RocketSocket is an automated connection system intended to make EV charging and RV hookups easier and more convenient. OneHitch is designed to streamline the trailer hitching process by integrating the coupler, electrical connection, and safety components into a single intelligent system. The company has also introduced Raktical, a line of utility-focused accessories created for Tesla Cybertrucks.

Mōdal is further expanding its technology portfolio through Mission Control, a digital platform that brings vehicle data, travel information, and connected services together in a single interface. By combining mechanical engineering, software development, electrical systems, machine learning, and data analytics, the company aims to create smarter transportation experiences for drivers.

How the Mōdal and Nerava Partnership Could Accelerate EV Adoption

As electric vehicle adoption continues to grow, the industry faces a challenge that extends beyond vehicle availability and charging infrastructure. Drivers need greater confidence in the charging experience itself. Concerns about charger reliability, charging safety, data transparency, and overall convenience remain barriers for many consumers considering the switch to electric.

The partnership between Mōdal and Nerava addresses these challenges by combining innovative charging hardware with intelligent software and verified data infrastructure. Together, the two companies are creating a more connected and trustworthy charging ecosystem that has the potential to make EV ownership easier and more appealing.

As the EV market continues to mature, partnerships that integrate hardware, software, and data will play an increasingly important role. The collaboration between Mōdal and Nerava represents an important step toward building a smarter charging network that benefits drivers, businesses, and infrastructure operators alike. By improving confidence in charging, and streamlining fragmented data for personal and enterprise use, the partnership is helping lay the foundation for broader EV adoption and a more connected electric future.
