E-mobility continues to accelerate. Thanks to higher efficiency and compact designs, battery prices will decrease by 60% by 2030. Starting around 2026, electric vehicles (EV) will become cheaper than internal combustion engines. This lasting cost advantage will be a turning point in EV sales, with forecasts predicting that by 2029, EVs will account for more than half of new car registrations in Europe.

A high-performance charging infrastructure is essential to power all these vehicles. By 2030, the EU aims to supply around 130 TWh of energy annually at public and private charging points for passenger and commercial vehicles. While the EV fleet is expected to grow by approximately 41% per year, the number of public charging points is projected to increase by only 26% annually. This development promises consistently high utilization of charging stations, enabling multiple providers to operate profitably.
