Off-Ramp Collectives LLC Announces Strategic Infrastructure Partnership with Murcia Group International

Off-Ramp Collectives LLC — Strategic Infrastructure Partnership with Murcia Group International

Off-Ramp Collectives LLC has signed a Letter of Intent (LOI) with Murcia Group International LLC, establishing a strategic construction partnership that strengthens the company's ability to execute future deployment of its grid-resilient EV charging destinations as capital becomes available.

Murcia Group International brings extensive experience delivering high-power EV charging infrastructure for nationally recognized charging networks and automotive brands, including Mercedes-Benz High-Power Charging and IONNA.

"Our framework is built on practical operational experience. After 16 years in property management and facility maintenance, I understand that successful infrastructure depends on reliability, disciplined execution, and trusted partnerships. By aligning with Murcia Group International, we're assembling the experience necessary to responsibly move from vision to execution."
— Stephen Andrew Shirley, Founder & CEO, Off-Ramp Collectives LLC
"Every milestone we've achieved has been intentional. From our charging technology strategy earlier this year to this strategic partnership, we've remained focused on building a resilient infrastructure platform capable of delivering lasting value for our commercial real estate partners, investors, and EV drivers."
— Dianne Liu, Co-Founder, Off-Ramp Collectives LLC
"Successful infrastructure projects are built through thoughtful planning, disciplined execution, and strong partnerships. Off-Ramp Collectives has demonstrated a clear understanding of what it takes to build commercially successful infrastructure. We're excited to support the company's future development as it advances toward deployment."

Off-Ramp Collectives LLC Partners with Ekoenergetyka America to Build the Future of EV Travel

Off-Ramp Collectives LLC + Ekoenergetyka America Partnership

Off-Ramp Collectives LLC has secured a strategic partnership with Ekoenergetyka America — Europe's leading commercial EV charger manufacturer with fourteen years of field-proven technology and over 14,000 global installations worldwide.

Together, we're deploying their Axon Easy 180kW DC fast charging systems across our planned Massachusetts sites and future New England corridors. The Axon Easy is engineered for real-world conditions — rated to -31°F, built for high-throughput commercial environments, and backed by a 5-year warranty.

Green Resilience Energy System

Each charger integrates into our proprietary Green Resilience energy architecture — combining on-site solar generation, wind power, and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) — designed to maintain full operations during grid volatility, peak demand events, and Northeast winter conditions where EV range drops 25–40%.

This partnership addresses one of the most critical gaps in the current charging landscape: hardware that doesn't just work in ideal conditions, but holds up when drivers need it most.

"We're building for real-world reliability rather than optimal conditions. By pairing Ekoenergetyka's fourteen years of field-proven technology with our integrated energy stack, we're creating a durable, high-margin asset that protects both the driver and the investor."
— Stephen Shirley, Founder & CEO, Off-Ramp Collectives LLC
"Our partnership with Off-Ramp Collectives is another milestone in our efforts to bring reliable solutions to fast charging infrastructure in the places they're needed most."

"I Didn't See a Green Revolution.
I Saw a Broken System."

Infrastructure Transformation

Off-Ramp Collectives LLC was founded by Stephen Shirley, whose career was built on the front lines of commercial property maintenance — the person who made sure the lights stayed on, the systems stayed up, and problems were solved before the customer ever knew they existed.

When C5-C7 spinal fusion surgery ended his days in the field, the fixer mindset remained. Surveying the EV landscape, Shirley didn't see the clean-energy revolution that headlines promised. He saw something different: EV chargers that didn't work, a grid that couldn't cope, and a customer experience that felt cold, isolated, and unreliable.

The data confirmed it. J.D. Power found that 14% of EV owners couldn't successfully complete a charge on a given visit. Bloomberg documented that 1-in-5 public chargers were broken at any given moment. Federal NEVI standards target 97% uptime — and routinely miss it.

In 2026, Shirley founded Off-Ramp Collectives LLC with a simple mandate: build infrastructure that works the way a commercial property manager would demand it work. Not 97% uptime — 99.9%. Not a plug and a parking spot — a restorative sanctuary. Not dependent on the grid — energy-native, BESS-backed, and renewable-powered.

Massachusetts has mandated 100% zero-emission vehicle sales by 2035. The policy is locked in. The infrastructure isn't. That gap is the opportunity Off-Ramp was built to fill.

"I spent 20 years making sure commercial properties worked. EV charging infrastructure is no different — it either works reliably or it fails the people who depend on it. We're building it right from day one."
