Electrip expands Intercharge network

New charging station operator Electrip has signed a roaming agreement with Hubject, adding to the Intercharge network. This EV roaming partnership means that Electrip's charging stations are now compatible with hundreds of charging service providers across Europe.

Electrip, or officially Electrip Italy Srl, is an Italian company with an international management team and describes itself as a “new player on the European market, characterised by the operation of charging stations and energy efficiency”. Although the name Electrip suggests that it is a long-distance DC charging network, the company intends to install both AC and DC stations in cities and on interurban roads.

The Hubject co-operation started in Italy and will be extended to other European countries as soon as Electrip starts operating there, including France, Greece, Bulgaria, Croatia, Montenegro, Poland and Turkey. However, it is not clear from Hubject’s announcement how many charging stations are currently involved in Italy and how many locations are planned in the countries mentioned.

“Our partnership with Hubject is a major step to offering electric car drivers a seamless charging experience which is the most prominent factor motivating drivers to electric mobility. I believe we, together with Hubject, will expand this partnership to all the countries where we operate,” says Electrip CEO Sinan Ak.

Hubject CEO Christian Hahn adds: “As a relatively new player in the European CPO market this is going to put electrip’s charging infrastructure on the map so that thousands of EV drivers can easily find and use their chargers. This is another step in the direction of making the EV charging experience as easy as possible wherever you are so that more people are encouraged to ditch their fossil fuel cars and switch to EVs.”
