The deal with Nima Energy will add 178 operational high-power charging points to Vattenfall InCharge’s Swedish network, together with a pipeline of 254 additional ultra-fast chargers planned across 36 new locations.

Vattenfall InCharge has signed an agreement to acquire Nima Energy’s Swedish fast-charging business, expanding its high-power charging footprint in major urban areas and along strategic transport routes.

The transaction covers 178 operational charging points at 16 locations, with power ratings of up to 300–400 kW, as well as a development pipeline comprising 254 additional ultra-fast charging points across 36 planned sites. The acquisition is expected to strengthen Vattenfall’s presence in key metropolitan markets, including Stockholm and Malmö.

The deal comes as charging infrastructure operators increasingly focus on network density, power availability and site location rather than on charger count alone. Ultra-fast systems in the 300–400 kW class can significantly reduce dwell time for vehicles capable of accepting high charging rates, while also increasing the technical requirements placed on grid connections, power electronics, thermal management and load control.

“More drivers are switching to electric vehicles and expect charging to be available wherever they travel,” said Henrik Nordström, Director of Vattenfall E-Mobility Sweden. According to Nordström, the acquisition will broaden access to fast and reliable charging while reinforcing the company’s position in Sweden’s fastest-growing charging markets.

Vattenfall InCharge currently provides access to more than 48,500 charging points across Sweden, the Netherlands and Germany, including around 7,500 points in Sweden. By integrating Nima Energy’s assets, the company aims to accelerate the expansion of its public charging infrastructure while improving coverage in high-demand locations.

Founded in 2020, Nima Energy has focused on high-capacity charging infrastructure for both private motorists and professional users, including taxi operators and fleets. Its network strategy combines urban charging sites with installations along important transport corridors, where charger availability and high power output are critical for intensive vehicle operation.

Fabian Hagmann, Vice President BU E-Mobility at Vattenfall, described the acquisition as part of the company’s European growth strategy, combining Nima’s local market presence with Vattenfall’s operational scale and energy-sector expertise.

The integration planning phase will begin following the signing of the agreement, while operational integration is scheduled to start after the transaction closes. Financial terms have not been disclosed.
