FORD, MICROSOFT TEAM UP TO HELP ELECTRIC VEHICLE OWNERS RECHARGE

MORE EFFECTIVELY, AFFORDABLY

The two companies are teaming up to implement the Microsoft Hohm energy management application for Ford’s electric vehicles. Ford is the first automaker announcing the use of Hohm, starting with the Focus Electric next year. Hohm will help owners determine when and how to most efficiently and affordably recharge battery electric vehicles (BEV) and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV). It also should help utility companies manage the added demands of electric vehicles on the electrical grid.

FORD FOCUS ELECTRIC

The Focus Electric will be the first Ford vehicle using the Microsoft Hohm energy management application via a joint

solution from Ford and Microsoft Hohm. Ford is the first automaker announcing the use of Microsoft Hohm.
