The biggest challenge for EV charging in Germany is no longer charging infrastructure itself. It is the growing complexity of the grid.


As networks scale, CPOs must navigate hundreds of DSOs, differing grid requirements, demands for grid-operator control and increasing pressure to accelerate rollouts despite limited grid capacity. What worked for ten sites no longer works for hundreds.
INTERFACE DACH brings together the leaders building the next generation of charging networks.

Together, we explore how CPOs can standardise grid integration, simplify compliance, unlock new energy capabilities and create scalable foundations for growth across Germany, Austria and Switzerland.
The winners of the next decade will be those who can standardise complexity.

How do we build charging networks that scale despite growing grid constraints and regulatory
complexity?
