US Consul Timothy Liston visits German based e-mobility start-up EcoG as it takes the big leap across the pond

EcoG takes the big leap across the pond in the course of its strategic expansion with the opening of the EcoG US office later this year – a special moment as EcoG started in Detroit, Michigan: “The U.S. charging market sees a significant acceleration of demand, not only because of the recently announced massive investment plan of the U.S. government, but also simply because EV models and volumes have been growing significantly. EcoG sees a win-win by supporting EV charger manufacturers in the US to enter the market with low lead time, reliable technology, cost efficiency of a market leader and to scale production fast. The goal is to increase availability and reliability of infrastructure for sustainable mobility fast. This is where we are convinced we can help the U.S. market players with our technology. ” – Joerg Heuer, CEO of EcoG.
