About Koulomb
Named after the SI unit of electric charge, Koulomb has a simple vision:
> to be the best EV charging company in the country
We provide a premium fast-charging experience for EV customers in motion through top-of-the-line equipment, customer service, and a clean, well-lit, and safe charging environment.
You can charge up your EV in 15 minutes or less with our fast chargers, conveniently located in the places you like to go.
Our mission is to execute the highest quality customer experience – our guests drive our decision-making in everything we do. Our super-fast chargers are powered by locally sourced renewable energy, so you can feel good about where the energy supplying your vehicle is coming from.
We have invested heavily in proprietary monitoring technology above and beyond what’s currently in use in the market, allowing for real-time data on usage, energy supply, outages, and troubleshooting. This means we have immediate insight into any mechanical or environmental issues and can resolve them right away, ensuring the reliability of our chargers.
Koulomb is based in Monroe, North Carolina, and is building a network of fast chargers throughout the Southeast – a region known to suffer from inadequate EV charging options.
Our Background
Koulomb was launched in 2021 by a successful utility-scale solar developer and electrical company (Pure Power Contractors) with the idea that we could do better than what’s currently on the market for EV charging. Availability of chargers and finding chargers that actually work is a common challenge for EV drivers. After driving around the Southeast US in our own EVs and seeing so many machines broken or in disrepair and knowing we could fix them ourselves, we thought why not build our own network and do this the right way?
Our start-up roots and group of in-house of experts allow us to execute installs quickly. Our partners can feel confident that our leadership team has been working in the renewable energy and electrical industry for more than 20 years. We understand the industry, have the right connections to the best equipment vendors, and can facilitate the complex needs of a project buildout of any size.

How We Work
-
Building Along Designated Alternative Fuel Corriders
Koulomb focuses on relieving the unplanned range anxiety for EV drivers who are traveling long distances but do not have the battery life to reach their destination. Koulomb purchases land and partners with property owners along important travel corridors to ensure it can provide solutions to drivers where they need them most. -
Partnership for Public Locations
EV drivers need regular access to a charge as they go about their daily business. Plans change, emergencies occur, and frankly, drivers can forget to charge. Koulomb partners with property owners to install its chargers in high-traffic locations customers are already visiting. Charging stations are accessible to EV drivers 24/7. -
Long-term Operation and Maintenance
Koulomb’s model of install and ownership of the chargers is key to avoiding stranded assets across the EV charging landscape and ensures reliability. We provide a turnkey charging solution to property owners where they can host chargers, earn revenue, and avoid the headaches of installing and maintaining the chargers themselves. When customers know they can rely on Koulomb to have a premium charging experience, it reinforces the brand promise and their choice to go electric. -
Partnership with local DOT, state, and highway authorities
With the passage of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, Koulomb plans to engage various DOTs and state and local government officials to best deploy its EV charging assets. We are excited that our governing bodies expect the help of private investment to help the U.S. on this important journey.
