Etrel Landis+Gyr Shutting Down EU Charging Business

February 13, 2025

Stranded to Supported: A New Chapter for EU EV Charging Networks

The electric vehicle charging landscape in EMEA is experiencing a significant shift with Landis+grl's exit from the market. This departure has left many neighborhood charging stations in limbo, particularly those relying on Etrel software infrastructure for critical functions. However, this challenge has opened the door for innovative solutions, with Pulse Energy emerging as a potential lifeline for affected communities.

The Impact of Etrel's Exit

The withdrawal of Etrel has created a pressing issue for numerous neighborhood charging stations. These stations, once integrated into Etrel's network, now face the prospect of losing essential software capabilities including:

- Load balancing systems that prevent electrical grid overload

- Scheduled charging features that enable off-peak usage

- Current limiting controls for safe and efficient charging

- Payment processing and user management systems

Pulse Energy's Solution

Recognizing the urgent need in the market, Pulse Energy is positioning itself to fill the void with its Charging Management System (CMS). This solution promises to restore and potentially enhance the functionality of affected charging stations, offering:

- Seamless integration with existing hardware

- Advanced load management capabilities

- Flexible scheduling options for optimal energy usage

- Real-time monitoring and control features

- User-friendly payment and access management

Benefits for Communities

This transition, while initially disruptive, may ultimately benefit neighborhood charging networks through:

1. **Enhanced Local Control**: Communities can gain more direct oversight of their charging infrastructure

2. **Improved Flexibility**: Pulse Energy's system may offer additional features not previously available

3. **Future-Proof Solutions**: Modern software architecture designed for scalability and updates
