Company to invest one billion kroner in new charging stations

Danish company Clever is set to significantly expand its electric vehicle charging infrastructure, announcing plans to invest an additional one billion Danish kroner this year.

“

We are investing in both the expansion of the charging network and in new technologies and solutions that will make charging easier and more accessible for Danes.

The investment will primarily focus on deploying 3,000 new public charging stations throughout Denmark. This initiative underscores the company's commitment to facilitating the transition to electric mobility in the country. Over the past five years, Clever, along with its owner Andel, has already invested over three billion kroner in building its charging network, which comprised 16,000 public charging points by 2025.

This year, we are expanding the charging network with 3,000 new public charging points, so the capacity can keep up as even more Danes replace their fossil fuel cars with electric cars.

Mathias Langkilde Sukstorf, head of network strategy at Clever, stated, "We are investing in both the expansion of the charging network and in new technologies and solutions that will make charging easier and more accessible for Danes." He added that the new stations are crucial as over 90 percent of Danes now choose electric cars when purchasing a new vehicle. This trend is reflected in the projected increase of electric vehicles on Danish roads from 400,000 a year ago to 600,000 in 2026, with an anticipated rise to 1.6 million by 2030. Clever aims to ensure Denmark remains a leading country for electric car owners by having the necessary infrastructure in place.

Denmark must continue to be one of the best countries in the world to be an electric car driver.
