Wattif EV expands in Norway with major charging infrastructure deal
Wattif EV has expanded its electric vehicle charging business with a major acquisition in Norway. The company is taking over Mer’s Norwegian business customer operations, strengthening its position in the market. This move follows an 85% year-over-year growth in its charging division during 2026. The deal sees Wattif EV absorb Mer’s Norwegian business portfolio, a European provider of EV charging infrastructure. Celine Troye Hopsdal, Managing Director of Wattif Nordics, stated that the acquisition supports the company’s growth plans. It also boosts their focus on business clients, including real estate firms and fleet operators.
Wattif EV now manages over 60,000 charging points across its markets. Andreas Strand, CEO of Wattif EV, highlighted that achieving positive EBITDA in the Nordic region at the start of 2026 marks a key milestone. The company’s rapid expansion reflects rising demand for charging solutions. Lukas Littmann, Managing Director of Wattif Europe GmbH, noted a surge in interest from German businesses. Major real estate developers, companies with private sites, and fleet managers are increasingly investing in charging infrastructure. This trend aligns with Wattif EV’s broader strategy to meet growing market needs.
The acquisition of Mer’s Norwegian business portfolio reinforces Wattif EV’s market presence. With 60,000 charging points and strong financial performance in the Nordics, the company is well-positioned for further growth. Demand from commercial clients continues to drive expansion in Germany and beyond.
