Send us a textIn this groundbreaking episode, we dive into the first-ever Virtual Power Plant (VPP) built on public DC fast chargers in the Nordics—a true industry first that redefines how Charge Point Operators (CPOs) can interact with the power grid. We’re joined by two key players behind this pioneering project: 🔹 Ludwig Hägglund, Energy Market Lead at Recharge, one of the largest public CPOs in the Nordics 🔹 Nicola Miori, Product Management Lead at FLEXECHARGE, the company powering the VPP with its intelligent energy management platform Together, they share how they turned high-power public EV charging hubs into flexible, grid-responsive assets—without compromising driver experience or uptime. 🎙️ Topics Covered: What exactly is a VPP for EV charging—and why it matters now The origin of the collaboration between Recharge and FLEXECHARGE How high-power DC chargers can participate in flexibility markets What this means for CPO profitability, grid integration, and site scalability Lessons learned: regulation, grid constraints, and tech architecture Why flexibility is the next competitive advantage in EV charging 💡 Want to learn more about "Aggregate", our VPP solution? 🎓 Join our free Masterclass on Virtual Power Plants for EV charging, hosted by FLEXECHARGE CTO Robert Brehm. We’ll explore how VPPs work, what they mean for CPOs, and how to prepare your charging infrastructure for flexibility markets. 👉 Sign up here: https://www.flexecharge.com/resources/webinars 👂 Who Should Listen: Charge Point Operators (CPOs) and eMobility leaders Grid operators, flexibility providers, and energy innovators Investors in EV infrastructure and smart energy Anyone working at the intersection of mobility, energy, and technology You can get more information on our website.Give us some stars please🌟 If you enjoyed the episode, please give it a 5-stars note and leave us a review.
