All systems are operational and most chargers and Equalizers are online.
However some chargers may still be offline and has not been able to reconnect, please read through the updated guide below if your charger is offline.
Some devices may also sporadically be unavailable and feel more βsluggishβ from time to time.
We may still need to deliberately force offline mode on some chargers to maintain system stability. This state may be necessary over the next few days before we have the first of the long term improvements ready.
We are working in parallel on our long term efforts to find permanent solutions to the challenges we have been faced with lately.
LED blinking? π¦ If the LED is blinking once you plug in your vehicle then you can use any Easeekey/RFID tag to start charging. The key-tag does not have to be in your Profile or does not need to have been used before. Any RFID key should work, you can use your access badge, wireless visa, a Phone with NFC or similar. For those of you who are unable to use your chargers while our cloud is offline, we suggest using public charging stations or emergency chargers π
Do you have a schedule? β± The schedule set for your charger is not possible to disable other than from the Easee app. It is not possible to turn off this schedule from the WiFi interface. The car will start charging when the schedule is set to start.

A fix has been implemented and we are monitoring the results.
Posted Dec 17, 2020 - 09:06 CET
Update
We now have all systems operational, Operator environments, Easee app, Easee portal and API is up and running.
Some customers may still be lagging behind for certain operators as the systems have intentional delays built in to not overload the systems.
We are closely monitoring everything to ensure that everything is stable ππ¨βπ»βοΈ
We are still monitoring all functions and working on getting the historic data up.
We will issue a new update later on progress β€οΈ

Update
We are slowly bringing the system back to life so many of you will probably notice that things are starting to work again. The system is still not completely restored but we are going to work in a gradual and controlled manner bringing everything back.
The system is now running on optimized systems which have been implemented over the last few days. We are more optimistic now and expect better stability on this optimized system. We have several other initiatives that have been started to ensure future proof and scalable solutions both online and offline.
We are working together with all operators in bringing back all systems. Some of you may still not be able to charge because of the current state where we are gradually bringing things back.
The app you are using to control your charger may still have instabilities and not reflect the real-life status of the charger or Equalizer. Connection status may vary between displaying as online or offline.
We will let you know more as soon as we have more information, we thank you all for your patience in this situation β€οΈπ

We have now deliberately brought the system down to avoid overloading it.
Most chargers should now allow offline charging based on the steps below.
We will monitor the system before enabling them in a controlled manner again.

Thank you for all your trust and support during the last week. This has been a tough week for all of us β€οΈ
We are currently in a situation where we almost have all systems operational, however we cannot guarantee that it will remain that way continuously over the next few days. Statuses in your app may at times be wrong and the system might feel slower than normal. We are closely monitoring everything to maintain control.
We have clearly underestimated our massive growth and cloud capacity. We feel your frustration towards the situation and the consequences that follow. This is not good enough β we are working day and night to solve the ongoing challenges with our cloud β getting closer to a future proof and scalable solution.
We have a specific plan on how to get the world balanced again β and fix this!
We are now making changes to the offline behaviour for all chargers so that you should be able to charge even if our cloud is not responding as it should.
At the same time we have our whole team working on the future-proof and scalable solution.

Update
We are working together with external industry experts on fine-tuning our cloud and we have good progress here. At the same time, we are working on an Β«off the shelfΒ» cloud solution made for the rapid growth we are experiencing, in order to prevent that this ever happens again.
We are working day and night and we hope to be able to get things back up and running as soon as possible. We thank you all again for your patience, this is not something we take for granted. An update will be issued as soon as we know more πβ€οΈ

Monitoring
We have now updated enough chargers to be able to bring back systems to their normal operation as well.
We have just started activating OCPP services, APIΒ΄s, Easee app and Easee Portal. We are starting to bring back services in a controlled manner.
The online and offline state in the Easee app and portal may be wrong at times but this will get better over time.
We are not 100% back yet and some things may not work as it should but we are getting very close πβ‘οΈβΊοΈ
Posted Dec 13, 2020 - 23:35 CET
Update
Over the weekend we have prepared a new firmware version for the chargers which is more "friendly" on our cloud, both in its behaviour on how It connects to the cloud and also how intense it is on updating live data which is not needed.
We have been gradually letting in more and more chargers all day while at the same time updating their firmware. This has been done in a controlled manner while closely monitoring the cloud systems.
We are now getting close to having all devices connected again. Once all chargers have been updated and as long as everything is stable we will gradually start activating all services again.
The positive results we have seen today means that we are in a much better position now than we have been in a long time β‘οΈπβ€οΈ
We will keep you all informed as soon as we know more! π
Posted Dec 13, 2020 - 22:42 CET
Update
We are currently updating around 50% of the chargers to a new version which is βkinderβ on our cloud π
This is a forced update so cars currently charging will stop charging to install the update.
Your chargers may also reboot during this process.
We will issue a new statement on the situation we are in soon.
Even though some chargers are online no apps or systems will work until we enable those services again.
We were not able to restore the systems with all the parallel attempts we had today. Currently it seems like we need to utilize the weekend to work on deeper architectural changes to our cloud services on order to restore the system properly π π§°π·ββοΈ
Everyone in Easee and our dear partners are working together with us on solving this issue.
We understand that many of you are frustrated, we are and will be doing everything we can to never end up in a situation like this again. At the same time we are working on the sideline to make plans for how our products can continue to work as well as they potentially can in situations like this in the future.

Update
We are still working on trying to stabilize our system to be able to bring back all devices. We are experiencing a high load on our services as we are trying to bring back devices online. We are making progress but it is going slower than we hoped for. We hope to bring back all devices today but we cannot guarantee anything at current point of time.
We will give you another update soon when we know more.
