For ZSE Slovakia and E.ON Czech Republic, both members of E.ON Group and charge point operators, the objective was to analyse and outline further expansion of the EV fast-charging infrastructure and its market integration in Slovakia and Czechia.

Both Operators needed to evaluate the mass market e-mobility services and offerings. Therefore, as the outcome of the FAST-E SK/CZ project, the roll-out strategy and planning focused on the future business operation, the feasibility of various e-mobility use cases, and the regulatory environment.

The Roll-out Master Plan provided a comprehensive strategy focus in the following areas:

• standards, business model alignment and interoperability, including business offerings, charging site design and hardware standard, best practice for IT and connectivity standards;
• customer behaviour and preference to specify technical and business approaches;
• recommendations for market integration and acceleration in markets in Slovakia and the Czech Republic;
• recommendations for policymakers on European, national and regional levels.
