In Episode 53 of the Charge Point Podcast, Christophe speaks with experts from across the EV charging ecosystem to explore what's driving the next generation of charging infrastructure.

Featuring insights from Polarium, ADS-TEC Energy, Sungrow, FLEXECHARGE, KEBA, and Lumina, this episode examines how the industry is moving beyond charger deployment toward intelligent energy management.

Key topics include:

  • Why grid constraints are reshaping EV charging infrastructure across Europe

  • How Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) improve site economics and unlock flexibility

  • The growing role of AI, smart energy management, and load optimization

  • Integrating EV chargers, batteries, solar PV, and energy markets into one intelligent ecosystem

  • Why collaboration between CPOs, energy providers, software companies, and hardware manufacturers is essential for scalable charging networks

As EV adoption accelerates and grid capacity becomes increasingly constrained, operating charging infrastructure efficiently is becoming just as important as deploying new chargers.
