Wattif EV acquires Mer's Norwegian portfolio to boost commercial charging growth

Wattif EV has expanded its presence in Norway by acquiring Mer’s business customer portfolio. The move strengthens the company’s position in the commercial charging sector and supports its rapid growth. This follows a year of significant financial progress, with an 85% increase in its charging business during 2026. The acquisition aligns with Wattif’s strategy to scale operations efficiently. Celine Troye Hopsdal, Managing Director of Wattif Nordics, described the deal as a natural step in their expansion plans. The company had already started 2026 with positive EBITDA in the Nordic region, signalling strong financial health.

Andreas Strand, CEO of Wattif EV, credited the firm’s success to disciplined growth and operational efficiency. The business now manages over 60,000 charging points across its markets. Lukas Littmann, Managing Director of Wattif Europe GmbH, also noted rising demand for charging infrastructure in Germany, highlighting further opportunities for expansion.

The takeover of Mer’s Norwegian business portfolio allows Wattif to accelerate its growth in the commercial segment. With a focus on profitability and scale, the company remains well-positioned for continued expansion across Europe. Wattif EV’s latest acquisition reinforces its market position in Norway and beyond. The company’s financial performance in 2026, combined with its growing network of charging points, sets a solid foundation for future development. Further growth is expected as demand for electric vehicle infrastructure continues to rise.
