Vattenfall InCharge acquires Nima Energy's Swedish fast charging network
By Eve
Vattenfall InCharge will acquire Nima Energy's Swedish fast charging business, which operates 178 high power charging points at 16 sites offering 300 to 400 kW capabilities, with a further 254 ultra fast points across 36 sites planned. The deal expands Vattenfall's presence in Stockholm and Malmö, adding to its existing 7,500 charging points in Sweden and 48,000 across Sweden, the Netherlands and Germany. Henrik Nordström, director of Vattenfall E-Mobility Sweden, said the acquisition will give customers increased access to fast and reliable charging in more locations.
Why it matters: The acquisition consolidates Sweden's fast charging market under a major European operator and signals continued M&A activity as CPOs scale networks to meet rising EV adoption. Procurement teams should note the shift towards ultra fast infrastructure at 300 to 400 kW, setting a benchmark for future tender specifications.
