- EV roaming is growing non-stop with a new focus on truck charging and high-power charging.
- The GreenFlux EV roaming network has passed the 1,000,000 charge points mark.
- Roaming benefits EV drivers by curing their range anxiety, CPOs by improving their utilisation rates and eMSPs by reaching more EV drivers with their services.
In the past decade, the European EV market has developed tremendously. It’s not only growing in existing segments and geographies but also moving into new markets and regions. With an already developed AC charging market available, DC and high-power charging are on the rise, with strong growth projected in truck charging and fleet charging.
To support existing and new eMobility industry requirements and fast acceleration to sustainable mobility, we help our eMSP and CPO customers deliver on their promise of charging anywhere and anytime, through our vast roaming network.
Best of all, our roaming network is spread all over Europe. But let us first explain what EV roaming is and how it can benefit your business.
‘With over one million charge points, GreenFlux offers one of the largest EV roaming networks in Europe. Similarly, we have one of the largest teams focusing only on EV roaming.’
What is roaming?
EV roaming is the ability of an EV driver to charge their vehicle at various public charging stations, regardless of the specific charging network operating them, using a single method of authentication or payment.
What are the 3 main benefits of roaming?
Roaming offers all kinds of benefits for different organisations. However, the three main benefits of roaming are:
- No more range anxiety. A large roaming network offers EV drivers certainty about their journey ahead. No driver has to worry about range anxiety anymore. Well, not in Western and Northern Europe, while Southern Europe is gaining ground fast. And Eastern Europe is now seeing eMobility’s great potential.
- Better utilisation rates. CPOs make their charge points more accessible to a big EV driver network. More potential drivers means more visibility, which leads to more charge sessions per charge point per day.
- Expanded reach. For eMSPs, a larger network means a much larger charging network and a better charging experience for their EV drivers, but also increased brand loyalty.
GreenFlux managed roaming or self-managed roaming
At GreenFlux, we offer two options for roaming: managed roaming and self-managed roaming.
By opting for our managed roaming service, CPO and EMSP customers give their EV drivers access to GreenFlux’s extensive roaming network. You don’t have to establish hundreds of technical connections and contracts or worry about local compliance or financial settlement with any external networks. We do all that for you.
This is different from self-managed roaming, where you can choose to manage your own roaming partner agreements. We support you with the technical set-up with your partners, but you decide who they are. And, you stay in control of your contract and invoicing processes.
Most of our roaming partners, however, opt for the GreenFlux-managed roaming network. With over 1,000,000 (yes, 1 million!) charge points, we operate one of the biggest EV roaming networks in Europe and beyond. You and your customers can use our vast network, carefree.
1,000,000+ roaming charge points and counting
GreenFlux started back in 2011 as a CPO. That was when we started building our charging network.
After transforming into a CPMS provider, we worked hard to improve the roaming experience and expand our roaming network across Europe. Now, we offer Roaming as a Service (RaaS) to all kinds of companies that own charge points.
Some of the milestones in our roaming journey are:
- Reached 100,000 charging points in 2019.
- Added the DKV roaming network after being acquired in 2021.
- Reached 500,000 charging points in July 2023.
- Added the Tesla supercharger network (18,000+ charging points today) in late 2023.
- Added the first truck charging points to the network through Milence in 2024.
- Grew the roaming network with over 350,000 charging points in 2024.
- Reached 900,000 charging points in January 2025.
- Passed the 1 million charging points mark in July 2025.
'There are a number of differentiators for EMSPs in this fast-growing market, and of those, the size of the network is probably the most important and certainly the most visible one.' Suthalan Gnanes, Managing Director at GreenFlux.
Roaming across Europe and beyond
We are constantly improving our coverage in all European countries. And our dedicated roaming team is one of the biggest and most experienced teams in the European EV market.
While some markets were historically less open to roaming, we now see all markets gradually opening. This is supported by 34% growth in EV sales in Europe in the first half of 2025 and the 35% public charging point growth in 2024. Northern and Western Europe lead the way. However, Eastern Europe is showing great growth potential in 2025.
For our roaming network, we can proudly state that we offer charging locations in 38 countries. That relates to 80% of the European countries (in number of states, not in inhabitants count), while the remaining 20% primarily are Europe’s mini states like Andorra. We also serve all EU Member States.
Some interesting statistics of our network relate to our reach from east to west and from north to south. The northernmost charging location is in Akureyri, Iceland. The most southern charge point is located in Valle de Jinámar, on the Spanish Canary Islands. In the east, we go as far as Ankara, Turkey, while the most western charge point is located in Reykjavik, Iceland.
Fun fact: it would take you 11 hours and five minutes to fly between Ankara and Valle de Jinámar, including two stopovers. It is the longest distance between two of our roaming charge points: a total of 4,584 km.
Countries that lead the way
When looking at our most important markets, the Dutch network contains more than 200,000 charge points, followed by almost 200k charge points in Germany and well over 100,000 charge points in France and Belgium.
‘Reaching the 1 million charge points is a fantastic accomplishment and a huge milestone for GreenFlux. After transforming into a CPMS provider, we’ve put a lot of effort into expanding our European roaming network and improving the roaming experience for our customers.’ Suthalan Gnanes, Managing Director at GreenFlux
Due to the many roaming partnerships we arrange, we can offer nearly 100% EV roaming coverage in the Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, France, Ireland and Austria. We aim for a similar EV roaming coverage in other countries, including Spain, Italy, Norway, Hungary, Sweden, and the UK, amongst others.
We also have roaming partnerships with Tesla (Europe), Ionity (Europe), Allego (Europe), Milence (Europe), Shell Recharge (Europe), MOLL Plugee (Eastern Europe), Vattenfall InCharge (Sweden), SMATRICS EnBW (Austria), ČEZ (Czechia), DKV Mobility, Stromnetz Hamburg (Germany) TEA Mobilitas (Hungary), EasyGo (Ireland), Zunder (Spain), Iberdrola (Spain), MOVE Mobility (Switzerland), Motor Fuel Group, Clenergy, Source London, Osprey, and Ubitricity (UK).
The future of EV roaming
In the coming years, we foresee further growth in EV roaming.
First, Europe’s EV charging infrastructure is increasingly expanding across new regions, fuelled by fast charging and truck charging. For example, think about the possible expansion of the Spanish charging infrastructure once the energy grid is updated properly (around 23% of installed chargers are not connected to the grid yet). Or the huge potential in Eastern Europe now that the region is slowly but surely moving towards electrified transport and building more charge stations.
Second, with AFIR implemented, more ad-hoc payments will be made to accommodate public charging. Despite some hick-ups in public charging, such as price transparency issues and malfunctioning charge points, the process is irreversible. You will see more and easier payment options for ad-hoc payments at charging stations.
Third, we see that an increasing number of CPOs are engaging directly with EV drivers. This leads to improved brand loyalty and relationships between the CPO and driver. Some CPOs will transform into an eMSP as they experience that a trusted relationship offers much potential for offering more eMobility solutions—and increase revenue.
Finally, we want to be clear: roaming will never disappear. We see this particularly in the business context. The benefits of roaming are manifold:
- Roaming makes mobility more accessible and appealing.
- Roaming provides fleet managers much overview over all mobility-related activities.
- Roaming offers discounts through tank cards, for example. This can include discounts on charging costs, tolls, parking, car washing, and so on.
