Virtual Power Plants for EV Charging | Recharge & FLEXECHARGE Nordic Case Study (Ep. 30)| Audio Only
In this episode, Christophe sits down with Ludwig Hägglund (Recharge) and Nicola Miori (FLEXECHARGE) to unpack the first-ever Virtual Power Plant (VPP) built on public DC fast chargers in the Nordics.
This groundbreaking project shows how high-power charging hubs can evolve into grid-responsive assets—unlocking new revenue streams for Charge Point Operators (CPOs) while supporting grid stability.
Together, Christophe and his guests dig into:
• What a Virtual Power Plant for EV charging really is—and why it matters now
• How the Recharge–FLEXECHARGE collaboration came to life
• How DC fast chargers can participate in flexibility markets
• What this means for CPO profitability, scalability, and grid integration
• The lessons learned around regulation, grid constraints, and tech architecture
• Why flexibility is the next competitive advantage in EV charging
If you’re a CPO, grid operator, policymaker, or investor, this episode reveals how the future of EV charging will be shaped by flexibility and intelligent energy management.
