8th Edition

Dear FLEXECHARGE Community Members,?

As the last traces of a glorious Indian summer fade here in Copenhagen, autumn’s vibrant palette of browns, oranges, and yellows is taking centre stage. With the arrival of Fall, the race to the year’s finish line has officially begun—the Q4 sprint, exciting for some and daunting for others, is here.?

For us in the EV charging and eMobility space, the path forward may have its challenges (with EV sales dipping in several markets this August), but the horizon remains bright. We’re on a shared mission to electrify the future of transportation, and no obstacle will stand in our way. The recent IAA Mobility Show brought inspiring news, particularly in the rapid electrification of heavy-duty vehicles, fueling our motivation to keep pushing forward.?

In this edition, we’ve packed invaluable insights to keep you up to speed. From a detailed overview of last month’s CPO network expansion to exciting new ecosystem partnerships, Flexicharge and Alpitronic joined us as certified partners, and we couldn’t be more thrilled.??

For those planning or managing high-power charging stations in the Netherlands, make sure to check out our on-demand webinar designed just for you.??

And don’t miss our podcast section—three new episodes have dropped, ready for your listening pleasure!?

Thank you for being part of this ever-evolving journey. Let’s keep moving forward, together. Safe travels!?

Yours sincerely,?
