Before the acquisition, Milepost’s network comprised around 750 charge points. With the addition of the new charge points, the total now stands at approximately 1,000 units. Most of the charge points transferred to Milepost deliver up to 22 kW, though some support up to 50 kW. As a result of the sale, Mer will no longer operate any public AC charging infrastructure in Sweden.Mer Sweden AB announced as early as October 2025 that it would strategically reposition itself, focusing primarily on strengthening its position as a pure fast-charging provider in the Nordic countries. As part of this realignment, Mer has already sold its business customer division – the unit responsible for installing non-public chargers on commercial premises and residential properties – to ChargeNode, a Swedish provider of charging solutions for businesses and property owners.“We are very happy to be entrusted to take ownership of these charging stations,” comments Lars Isaksson, Head of Business Development and Operations at Milepost. “Mer has had an important role in the establishment of EV-charging infrastructure in Sweden, and we are looking forward to further run and develop these sites. At completion of the acquisition, we will have passed 1000 charge points, and we will offer our services in an additional 37 municipalities.”“Our strategy is to fully focus on ultra-fast public EV-charging,” confirms Jesper Thyberg, Director of Network Management at Mer. “We are therefore pleased to divest our AC-charging stations to Milepost, who has the right focus to further develop these sites.”Just a month and a half ago, Mer announced that it would also sell its public charging network in the UK. The buyer in this case is Be.EV. The acquisition includes over 1,600 charging bays across more than 450 locations. Unlike in Sweden, Mer is withdrawing entirely from the public charging market in the UK but will retain its commercial chargers in the region.globenewswire.com, milepost.se (Website), chargenode.eu (in Swedish)
