The discussion centers on the varied roles and economic models of charging stations, often overlooked in favor of monetization strategies. Christian Kurtenbach from Monta introduces their pure software SaaS company focused on charge points, which connects over 100,000 units globally. He highlights two primary motives for setting up charging stations: profit-driven installations versus service-oriented setups. Profit-driven stations aim to maximize utilization and revenue through accessibility, competitive pricing, visibility, and user comfort. Examples include fuel station chains like Unox and professional public network operators. In contrast, service-oriented setups prioritize user experience over profitability. These are found at workplaces (to attract employees), fleet services (for operational efficiency), residential areas (for convenience), supermarkets (to draw customers), hotels (offering amenities like booking.com checkmarks), and municipalities; each driven by unique non-financial motivations. Understanding these distinct objectives is crucial for CPOs or solution providers as it dictates different focus areas—either enhancing utilization or improving user experience—to effectively meet diverse market needs.
