Since April 13, 2024, the AFIR (Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Regulation) has been in effect. This European regulation sets requirements for alternative fuel infrastructure — including public charging stations, hydrogen stations, and shore power — focusing on availability, interoperability, price transparency, and accessible payment options.
MobilityPlus helps its customers ensure their charging stations are fully AFIR-compliant, with solutions that make price information transparent and payments easier and more secure than ever.
