How will the Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Regulation (AFIR) impact the public EV charging experience and our industry starting from 2025? How do you think the AFIR regulations will reshape the EV charging market? 💬🤔 In this blog post by electrive, they flag the lack of transparency in pricing EV drivers face due to complex contracts with EMPs and varying rates at CPO stations.  Read the full blog which also references these expert statements: ...Christian Hahn, CEO at Hubject, notes; “For electric fleet vehicles, the use of payment cards is only suitable to a very limited extent because the necessary settlement with the large number of individual receipts is neither acceptable for drivers nor for the fleet managers.” ... However, Wulf Schlachter believes it is unlikely that EMPs will be displaced or even disappear: “EMPs are here to stay. Elli from Volkswagen or DCS will continue to serve fleet and other commercial customers.”  Read the full article on the AFIR regulation here: https://lnkd.in/e4YT9RnM #evCharging #AFIR #EMP #CPO #eMobility #Reliability
