This acquisition marks Eleport’s entry into the Croatian and Slovenian markets, setting the stage for significant growth in the region.
In the first phase of this expansion, Eleport plans to establish 17 charging parks at Supernova and SES shopping centres. The specific locations of these new hubs include Zagreb and Zadar in Croatia, and Ljubljana in Slovenia, where each site will feature twelve high-speed charging stations from Kempower.
This move aligns with Eleport’s ambitious vision of becoming the leading EV charging network in the CEE (Central and Eastern Europe) region
Jakub Miler, CEO of Eleport, hailed the acquisition as a “pivotal step” in the company’s long-term strategy. “This acquisition is another pivotal step in Eleport’s long-term plan of becoming the leading EV charging network in CEE,” he said.
TurboVolt’s CEO, Anthony Hinde, echoed this sentiment, emphasizing the synergy between the two companies: “Together, we will provide market-leading solutions for high-speed charging in CEE markets which urgently need solutions.”
Eleport’s expansion strategy is not limited to Croatia and Slovenia. The company, which already operates over 800 charging points across Poland, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania, aims to increase this number to 1,350 by the end of the year. This growth will be fueled not only by the TurboVolt acquisition but also through strategic partnerships, such as the recently announced collaboration to install charging points at 70 Carrefour locations across 65 Polish cities.
