Why Logistics Operators Are Becoming CPOs | INTERFACE Interview

16 views

At the INTERFACE Benelux event, Peter Brockhoff (CTO, Floading) explains a key shift in the EV charging ecosystem: logistics operators are becoming Charge Point Operators (CPOs).

As fleet electrification accelerates, logistics companies are no longer just energy consumers—they are responsible for managing charging infrastructure, ensuring availability, and operating like commercial CPOs.

Why this matters

For electric fleets, charging is mission-critical. Trucks must charge exactly when they are on site, making reliability and planning essential.

At the same time, grid conditions across Europe—especially in markets like the Netherlands—are becoming more constrained. This creates new challenges for depot charging deployment and operations.

What you’ll learn

  • Why logistics companies are evolving into CPOs

  • How fleet charging differs from public charging models

  • Why timing and reliability are critical for depot charging

  • The impact of grid constraints on fleet electrification

INTERFACE context

This interview was recorded at INTERFACE Benelux, where CPOs, fleet operators, and energy experts come together to solve real-world EV charging challenges.
