"We’d explored various digital signage software to pair with the Hydra Apollo to make it easy to update content but also offer great advertising features," said Steven South, CEO, Hydra EVC. "Pairing the Hydra Apollo with a top-class digital signage software was key to making the product an attractive ‘all-in-one’ proposition to customers so by offering embed signage made absolute sense! It’s a great product and offers brilliant content management tools as well as Analytics which is very important for this type of product."

The Hydra Apollo positions itself as a product to maximize return on investment for EV charging networks. This is made possible by doubling the revenue streams, combining the fees raised from EV charging with valuable advertising revenues on the screen.
