Electric vehicle (EV) charging industry is exploding in size. Millions of EVs are hitting the roads in the next decade and this will translate into a 10 fold demand for public electric charging stations in Europe. Although EV charging market characteristics vary a lot by country, location for charging, company value chain position and business model, building a smooth and consistent customer experience will be a key differentiator in this market.

Players in the charging ecosystem are currently shaping their roles and business models. Value chains are still in their infancy and competition for the EV consumer will increase as the strategic opportunity unfolds itself. It is reasonable to assume that software will play a key role as an enabler and as a differentiator in the marketplace.

Creating good software to support both the infrastructure and the charging experience for the consumer will provide competitive advantage for those companies who invest early and take the leadership position.

Dynamic market and rapid growth also brings challenges. Together with Cirit, IGL Technologies has been building and modernizing their software foundation to enable effortless scaling and superb customer experience. In this case, Cirit was the recommended choice because of our long and versatile experience in the web and mobile domains.
