European EV fast-charging network operator across 9 countries
Electra operates a multinational fast-charging infrastructure business built on Ruby, Go, TypeScript, and AWS—a modern full-stack foundation for a hardware-plus-software operation. The company is actively scaling across nine countries with a 215-person team weighted toward operations (20 headcount), sales (15), and engineering (13), reflecting the capital-intensive, geography-dependent nature of charging-station deployment. Current projects cluster on market expansion in the Netherlands, Italy, and Spain, while internal friction centers on location acquisition, cost management, and local regulatory adaptation.
Electra deploys and operates fast-charging infrastructure for electric vehicles across nine European countries, targeting B2B customers (fleet operators, hotel groups, parking operators, automakers). The company has partnerships with major corporations including Vinci Autoroutes, Stellantis, G7, and Delhaize Group. Founded in 2020 and based in Paris, Electra employs 215 specialists and is committed to expanding to 15,000 fast charging points by 2030. The product layer includes mobile interfaces for user experience, supported by proprietary operations and billing systems.
Electra operates in 9 countries: France, Netherlands, Italy, Spain, Austria, Belgium, Germany, Switzerland, and Czechia. Active expansion projects are underway in the Netherlands, Italy, and Spain.
