Vattenfall has agreed to transfer its business-to-business (B2B) fleet charging business in Germany to The Mobility House Solutions, an Edenred subsidiary, as the Swedish energy company refocuses on public electric vehicle charging infrastructure.
The transaction forms part of a broader divestment of Vattenfall’s B2B charging operations in Germany, Sweden and the Netherlands. According to Automobilwoche, the company decided last year to exit the business and is now implementing the plan.
Fabian Hagmann, Vice President of E-Mobility at Vattenfall, said:
“While we continue to include this segment in our portfolio, it will gradually be transferred to other charge point operators.”
Strategic Shift
In Germany, the business will be acquired by Edenred, which recently purchased The Mobility House Solutions and continues to operate the fleet charging business under the same brand.
Vattenfall has already completed the sale of its Swedish B2B charging business to Voltavi, while a buyer for the Dutch operations has yet to be announced.
The company said the transactions will not affect its residential or public charging businesses in the three countries.
According to Automobilwoche, the divestment is part of a strategic decision to prioritize public charging infrastructure. Vattenfall’s fleet charging business includes approximately 10,000 charging points.
Focus on Public Charging
Vattenfall recently strengthened its public charging network through the acquisition of Nima Energy’s fast-charging business in Sweden.
The acquisition includes 178 operational high-power charging (HPC) points across 16 locations and a further 254 planned HPC chargers at 36 additional sites.
Through its Vattenfall InCharge brand, the company currently operates approximately 48,500 charging points across Sweden, Germany and the Netherlands.
The transaction follows a series of acquisitions in Germany’s fleet charging market. Earlier this week, Cubos announced the acquisition of TotalEnergies’ B2B charging business in Germany, while The Mobility House recently completed the sale of its fleet charging operations to Edenred, highlighting continued consolidation in the sector.
