Wattif EV expands European reach with Mer's Norwegian charging portfolio
Wattif EV has acquired Mer’s Norwegian business customer portfolio, expanding its reach in Europe. The deal boosts the company’s presence in Norway, Sweden, and Germany, where demand for charging infrastructure is growing rapidly. Wattif now operates over 60,000 charging points across its key markets. The acquisition aligns with Wattif’s long-term growth strategy, according to Celine Troye Hopsdal, Managing Director of Wattif Nordics. She noted that the move supports the company’s vision for expansion in the region. Meanwhile, Lukas Littmann, Managing Director of Wattif Europe GmbH, pointed to Germany’s increasing need for charging solutions as a key driver for the deal.
Wattif reported strong financial performance in 2026, with an 85% year-over-year increase in its charging business. The company also achieved positive EBITDA in the Nordic countries at the start of the year. CEO Andreas Strand credited this success to a focus on scale, operational efficiency, and disciplined growth.
With an optimised portfolio and streamlined operations, Wattif is now better positioned to drive further growth across Europe. The expanded network strengthens its ability to meet rising demand for electric vehicle infrastructure. The takeover of Mer’s Norwegian business portfolio reinforces Wattif’s market position in Scandinavia and Germany. The company’s growing network and financial stability suggest continued expansion in Europe’s charging sector. Wattif now manages one of the largest charging point networks in the region.
