Peblar Home Plus phase-out, what you need to know

The Peblar Home Plus is currently being phased out and is no longer part of our active product portfolio. While it is no longer available for new orders directly from Peblar, existing units remain fully supported. Below you’ll find everything you need to know about what this means for ongoing use, support, and maintenance.

 

Why this change was made

This phase-out is part of a broader strategy to simplify our product portfolio and better align it with user needs. Moving forward, we are focusing on two distinct product lines:

  • Peblar Home for residential use (e.g. privately owned or privately leased vehicles)
  • Peblar Business for both residential business-linked scenarios (e.g. company cars) and commercial applications (e.g. offices, workplaces, parking areas)

In parallel, we have introduced the Peblar Business Cable (available in 5m and 7.5m), featuring upgraded internal components and ISO 15118 readiness, making it more suitable for forward-looking use cases. 

Note: The Peblar Home Plus is not ISO 15118-ready. If you are looking to prepare for features like vehicle-to-grid (V2G) or other bidirectional applications, we recommend opting for the Peblar Business Cable instead. 

This portfolio update enables us to offer a clearer product structure for both partners and end users, while continuing to fully support all existing Peblar Home Plus installations.

 

Availability and installation

The Peblar Home Plus is no longer available for new purchases at Peblar. However, if units are still in stock at some distribution partners, they can be installed and used as normal. There are no changes required for installation or operation.

 

Firmware updates

All Peblar Home Plus units will continue to receive the same firmware updates as our other chargers. This includes security improvements, new features, and ongoing compatibility with our systems.

 

Technical support

We will continue to offer technical support for Peblar Home Plus chargers. There is currently no planned end-of-support date; the Peblar Home Plus remains in line with our product lifecycle and service policies.

 

Safety and compliance

The Peblar Home Plus remains completely safe and compliant with current regulations. There are no concerns regarding continued daily use, and no action is needed from users.

 

Looking ahead – future technologies & compatibility

As electric mobility evolves, technologies like ISO 15118 and bidirectional charging (such as vehicle-to-grid) are gaining momentum across the industry. While the Peblar Home Plus does not support these features, our Peblar Business product line is being developed with hardware readiness in mind for upcoming standards.

That said, being hardware-ready does not mean these features are available today. The software, ecosystem, and regulatory frameworks still need to mature. Providing hardware regulations and standards do not drastically change, certain features may be unlocked via software updates when bidirectional use cases become more viable for consumers.

If you are considering future-proof solutions, particularly with interest in ISO 15118, we recommend opting for the Peblar Business.
