“With its six physical borders France, is a central market for eMobility and plays a significant role for international mobility across Europe and therefore for the interoperability of EV charging infrastructure,” said Hubject CEO, Christian Hahn.
“Our societies are facing unprecedented environmental, economic and societal challenges. Electric mobility partly addresses these three problems, but the difficulties encountered by users in recharging their cars outside their usual network of charging points is a real obstacle for users and potential buyers of EVs.”
“France has emerged as one of the strongest and most mature eMobility markets in Europe, delivering consistent quarterly and annual growth. We firmly believe, however, there is room for further growth and that the operators, who are willing to integrate into our platform and technology solutions will reap sizeable benefits.”
France recently outlined an automotive recovery plan presented by President Macron.
