As the first truly global digital EV charging network Hubject can offer the whole value chain for clients that want to enter foreign markets.” He continued: “We’re the only company in the industry that has a productive and intensely used Plug&Charge ecosystem. As this is based on the internationally recognized global standard ISO 15118, having it pre-installed will shorten the market entry approval process in overseas markets.”
