Grid-independent EV and bus charging with onsite battery storage
Jule manufactures battery-backed EV and bus charging systems designed to operate independently of grid constraints. The tech stack reveals a manufacturing-operations hybrid: industrial control layers (PLC, Siemens, Allen-Bradley, LabVIEW, ARM) paired with modern cloud infrastructure (Kubernetes, Docker, PostgreSQL, AWS) and enterprise resource planning systems (SAP, NetSuite, Odoo). Current hiring and project velocity signal a transition from startup to operational scaling—ERP implementation, SOX compliance, inventory reconciliation, and production-delay remediation are active pain points alongside product development.
Jule designs and deploys modular energy hubs that combine EV/bus charging with onsite battery storage, eliminating dependence on grid availability at the point of charge. Founded in 2009, the company has installed over 70 MW of power across North America, with a dozen operational deployments in Ontario, Manitoba, and Michigan, plus 30 additional sites in development across Canada and the United States. The organization operates as a hardware manufacturer and charging network operator, supporting both private and public fleet electrification. At 51–200 employees, the company is balancing product innovation (next-generation charger and storage systems) with operational maturity (ERP transition, SOX readiness, supply-chain optimization).
Jule runs React and Go for software, PostgreSQL for databases, Kubernetes and Docker for deployment, and AWS for cloud infrastructure. Industrial control relies on Siemens, Allen-Bradley, PLC, and LabVIEW. ERP systems include SAP, NetSuite, and Odoo.
