Smart, integrated solutions for your charging infrastructure
Europe has decided to ban the sale of combustion-engine vehicles as from 2035. This decision will have significant consequences for your company, as many manufacturers have already announced that they are preparing for this deadline. More and more of your employees, customers and visitors will start to drive electric vehicles. As for the electrification of your utility vehicles, it’s just a question of time. So be ahead of the curve and plan the installation of charging points in your car parks!
