Charging Infrastructure — Public Procurement
The roll-out of public charging infrastructure for electric vehicles is a political priority at every level of government. Municipalities, public utilities and federal authorities award contracts for the planning, construction and operation of charging points in public spaces, depots and at park-and-ride facilities. Federal funding programmes are accelerating the pace of awards even further.

Challenges in tender discovery
Charging infrastructure is a relatively new procurement topic for which no dedicated CPV code exists. Tenders appear under a wide variety of codes — from electrical installation and energy supply to concession procedures. The variety of contract models (purchase, operator contract, concession) further complicates systematic searching.
Funding programmes such as Deutschlandnetz or municipal funding schemes have their own procurement rules, which add further complexity. Without specialised monitoring, many relevant tenders are missed.
