Wattif’s primary markets include Norway, Sweden, and Germany.

The acquisition follows an earlier transaction in 2024, when Wattif took over Mer’s Norwegian housing association charging portfolio, including charging infrastructure serving residential tenants.

Mer is part of the Statkraft group.

“By integrating Mer’s business portfolio, Wattif further consolidates its position in the business segment, reinforcing its role as a preferred partner for professional landowners and businesses seeking future-proof EV charging solutions,” Wattif said in a statement.

The company said the transaction comes during a period of strong operational growth. Wattif reported that its charging business expanded by 85% year-on-year during the first months of 2026 and that it achieved positive EBITDA in the Nordic region.

“Starting 2026 with positive EBITDA in the Nordics is a significant milestone for Wattif. It shows that our strategy is working, combining scale, operational efficiency, and disciplined growth,” Strand said.

Celine Troye Hopsdal, managing director of Wattif Nordics, described the acquisition as a continuation of the companies’ existing cooperation.

“We are happy to work with Mer again on this transaction. The acquisition is a natural next step in our growth journey in the Nordics,” Hopsdal said.
