ChargePoint

ChargePoint has partnered with Mercedes-Benz to deliver a turnkey fleet charging service for business customers, covering site planning, installation, operation and ongoing support for company cars and light to medium duty vans. The service, announced on 10 August 2026, is rolling out initially in the UK and Germany with plans to expand to additional markets later in 2026. Mercedes-Benz fleet customers will access ChargePoint's AC and DC hardware, energy management systems and fleet software alongside professional installation and support services.

Why it matters: The partnership creates a new procurement channel for ChargePoint hardware and services through Mercedes-Benz's commercial vehicle sales network, potentially accelerating depot and workplace charging deployments. Fleet operators gain a single point of contact for end to end charging infrastructure, which may influence site design and installation tender opportunities in the UK and German markets.

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.
