With gratitude and pride, we look back on ten years full of challenges, insights and important decisions – and, above all, on a decade together with you: our customers, partners and companions along the way. Thank you very much for your trust, your feedback and your collaboration.

Driven by a fantastic team that never stopped moving forward, we would now like to look back together in order to strengthen ourselves for the future.

10 years chargecloud

Milestones

2025

Growth & Impact: A further funding round drives our expansion into various European markets. We also surpass 70,000 charge points.

2024

Brand & Market: We celebrate our 300th customer and continue to expand our portfolio. At the same time, we introduce a brand relaunch that presents the logo and the company in a new look and feel.

2023

Change & Forward: powercloud leaves the shareholder structure. RheinEnergie increases its stake and MENNEKES reaffirms its commitment. We introduce our Community platform and sharpen our focus on growth, stability and operational excellence.

2022

Innovation & Investment: We launch new services including Billing 2.0, the Fleet module and the Marketplace, which go beyond a pure CPMS. 30,000 charging points and a capital increase of €1.5 million provide further momentum.

2021

Renewal & Europe: Markus Bach is taking over the management of the company from Axel Lauterborn and is preparing it for the European market. New modules, the 24/7 hotline and strong growth have brought us to 15,000 charging points.

2020

Scaling & Strengthening: We expand our system by switching to the AWS cloud for even greater reliability and introduce the blocking fee as an important feature for efficient charging.

2019

Products & Partners: Following a successful funding round, we expand our portfolio to include Partner Solution Management for site partners. The Partner-Forum (now “connect”) is launched for the first time.

2018

Calibration Law & Success: We introduce calibration-law-compliant billing, celebrate the successful closing of our 50th customer and grow to more than 1,500 connected charge points.

2017

Municipal Utilities & System Expansion: Our first customers are municipal utilities and energy suppliers. With the introduction of the REST API and a white-label B2B portal, site and sales partners can be integrated.

2016

Founding & Shareholders: chargecloud is established as a joint venture of RheinEnergie, MENNEKES and powercloud with the goal of developing a scalable, manufacturer-independent SaaS solution for the operation and billing of charging infrastructure.

“If someone asks me what I am most proud of after ten years, I don’t name any numbers. I say: the people. We have a team with a true passion for e-mobility, who believe that good work and fun go hand in hand.

What sets us apart is that we have never made the loudest promise, but the most reliable one. It is a promise that we will continue to develop alongside the market. With our perhaps somewhat Cologne-style openness, we rely on real partnerships. This is precisely how we win customers and continue to grow as a European company, kWh by kWh.”
