[We have] “developed a customer-friendly and efficient approach to providing users of electric vehicles with an easy access to public charge stations throughout Europe,” Intercharge said.
Users can charge their vehicles at stations compatible with Intercharge under a single contract. The only requirement is that their provider be connected to the eRoaming system.
All charge stations allowing for cross-provider use have the intercharge symbol. Alongside partners from Germany and the Benelux countries, several Austrian charging infrastructure operators are also involved.
Herbert Diess, BMW’s board level development chief, said: “It is our aim that users of electric vehicles can charge anywhere and easily. This joint initiative enables us to leave national and regional stand-alone solutions behind and to create a European network that connects the different charge point operators and is available to all users.”
