Total strengthens position in German EVs market
French oil major Total is strengthening its electric mobility position in Germany with the acquisition of Charging Solutions, Kallanish reports.
The company announced the undisclosed deal with the Viessmann group on 12 November. With the transaction, Total becomes the operator of a network of 2,000 charge points installed at private businesses’ locations across Germany.
The Munich-based firm will be operated by Total Deutschland and will offer “complete solutions” for electric charging, with services including consulting, planification, installation and invoicing of charging services. There will be no changes to customers and existing partners of Charging Solutions, adds Total.
“Electric charging is modifying the traditional model of energy supply for vehicles, from the distribution at service-stations to a multi-channel distribution: at work, at home, in public places, in commercial areas or at service-stations,” notes Alexis Vovk, president of marketing & services at Total.
With plans to operate 150,000 charge points in Europe by 2025, Total says it “will be ready to cater” for such growing demand.
