EcoG becomes Siemens Product Partner to upgrade software on SIMATIC based DC fast chargers
Munich-based EcoG and Siemens are combining their automation and charging technologies to support manufacturers of EV fast charging hardware, with EcoG now an official Siemens Product Partner for SIMATIC automation systems handling system integration and field operations. More than 50 manufacturers of DC fast chargers use technology from both companies. The EcoG operating system offers ongoing software updates and support for the Cyber Resilience Act and ISO 15118-20, which the EU will require new charging points to support from 2027, plus Plug & Charge, the Megawatt Charging System and billing compliant with German calibration law (Eichrecht), as reported on 5 November 2026.
Why it matters
Manufacturers can reportedly bring existing SIMATIC based chargers up to date by replacing the charging module rather than redeveloping the hardware, which may ease compliance with the 2027 EU requirements. Buyers and CPOs should ask suppliers whether their charger platforms are on this upgrade path when assessing long term software support and regulatory readiness.
