Driving Green
First product · Tesla smart charging

Plug in. We'll do the rest.

We're launching smart charging first. When live, it'll shift every charging session to the cheapest, cleanest hours of the night - without touching your car's app, your charger, or your daily routine. Your Tesla full at 7am, for around 60% less.

01
You plug in at home.

Whatever time you get back. The car talks to Driving Green over the cloud - no extra hardware, no wiring changes.

02
We wait for the cheap hours.

Most nights that's between 1am and 5am. Prices drop, the wind picks up, and the grid has spare capacity.

03
You wake up charged.

At your target state of charge, at your target time. If plans change you can override in one tap.

What you'd save

Charging a Model 3 at a flat-rate Irish retail tariff (~34c/kWh) costs about €1,290 a year. Smart-charged on the night-rate window of a Day/Night or smart Time-of-Use tariff (~17c/kWh), that drops to around €640. The cheapest retail hours track wholesale price and carbon intensity, both of which are lowest in the small hours.

Today's price curve · Ireland

Charging at 2am vs 6pm isn't a small difference.

Irish wholesale electricity has one of the biggest peak-to-off-peak spreads in Europe - 3–4× the gap of most EU countries. The chart below is today's curve. We charge your car along the green dots, not the amber ones.

What this means for your car

Cheap when the wind blows.

Overnight wind regularly supplies 40–60% of Irish electricity, and the cheap hours match the clean ones. We pick the green window automatically.

  • ~60% lower cost by charging in the cheapest 4 hours instead of standard rate.
  • ~73% cleaner charge. Off-peak Irish grid carbon ~100 gCO₂/kWh vs 380+ at peak.
  • Nothing to install. We talk to your car directly - works with or without a smart wall charger.
