Ekoenergetyka, a leading producer of high-power electric vehicle charging stations on the European market, announced three agreements with distributors and service partners as it continues expanding its offering for charge point operators (CPOs) around the continent.
Germany’s ADLER Smart Solutions and IONIUM will distribute and service Ekoenergetyka’s stations in their home market, while SWARCO Smart Charging and SWARCO Traffic Systems will do the same in the UK and several other leading European markets. Ekoenergetyka, based in Zielona Góra, western Poland, announced the agreements at IAA Mobility in Munich, the world’s largest mobility event.
“These agreements will substantially expand our reach in the European market, and we’re delighted that we’ll be even closer to the customer,” said Ekoenergetyka CEO and Co-Founder Bartosz Kubik. “We recognize that the high charger availability provided by our best-in-class post-sales service is what keeps clients loyal, and these agreements will help us ensure the best possible service level.”
Established in 2009, Ekoenergetyka grew out of an academic research project; it now employs around 1,000 people and supplies 20% of Europe’s charging stations for municipal buses. After capturing 80% of the high-power charging station market in its home country of Poland, and earning a reputation for reliability with customized infrastructure for public transit operators in cities such as Barcelona, Berlin and Paris, Ekoenergetyka is now expanding in the CPO market, offering off-the-shelf charging solutions backed by long-term service agreements.
After selling and installing its charging stations, Ekoenergetyka monitors them from its facility in Zielona Góra, near the Polish-German border about 200 km from Berlin. The company’s advanced systems allow it to repair a substantial number of outages remotely, often before a report from the client; repairs that require a physical intervention are handled by the pan-European network of service providers that the partners announced today will join.
“This strategic alliance with Ekoenergetyka uniquely positions us at the intersection of clean energy and sustainable mobility, setting a new standard for sector coupling,” said ADLER Smart Solutions CEO Tajo Adler. “As one of the German market leaders in holistic clean energy solutions we at ADLER Smart Solutions strive to broaden our impact, turning innovation in photovoltaics and mobility into integrated, real-world applications. Together, we’re not merely responding to market needs; we’re proactively shaping a more sustainable future for businesses and communities alike.”
In addition to the manufacturing and service operation, Ekoenergetyka’s headquarters in Zielona Góra includes laboratories for testing and for research and development, where its in-house teams are developing the next generation of chargers.
“This partnership with Ekoenergetyka underscores our dedication to innovation and sustainability, advancing our IONIUM One-Go™ Turnkey approach,” said Henrik Wichmann, Country Manager Nordics at IONIUM. “By integrating their cutting-edge charging hardware, we are extending our commitment to provide scalable solutions for a greener future throughout Europe.
Ekoenergetyka’s expansion drive is backed by Enterprise Investors, a leading Central European private equity fund, which took a significant minority stake last year. The fund has announced plans to invest more than €45 million in e-mobility projects.
“By combining the expertise of Ekoenergetyka’s team with our own award-winning team, we are poised to deliver top-tier technology and service excellence,” said Anne Buckingham, Managing Director SIS at SWARCO Smart Charging. “Our eBus & eTruck customers can confidently choose Ekoenergetyka’s charging stations, backed by their cutting edge technology and best-in-class service operation.”
