Mercedes-Benz and ChargePoint launch turnkey fleet charging offer in UK and Germany
By Eve
ChargePoint has partnered with Mercedes-Benz to provide business customers in the UK and Germany with an end to end fleet charging solution, covering site planning, installation, operation and ongoing service. The offer uses ChargePoint's AC and DC hardware alongside its smart energy management and fleet charging software, with potential integration of solar PV and battery storage to reduce costs. The companies plan to expand the partnership to additional markets in 2025.
Why it matters: The turnkey model removes the need for fleet operators to manage multiple vendors across the charging infrastructure lifecycle, potentially simplifying procurement for businesses electrifying company car fleets. The partnership signals growing collaboration between automakers and CPOs to bundle vehicles with charging infrastructure as a single commercial offer.
