Hubject and Chery Energy Partnership Expands EV Charging

Hubject and Chery Energy Partnership Expands EV Charging

On September 14, Hubject and Chery Energy, part of Chery Holding, announced a partnership focused on advancing commercial electric vehicle charging across Europe. The cooperation combines Hubject’s expertise in eMobility interoperability with Chery Energy’s expanding activities in new energy and charging infrastructure. The companies intend to support commercial fleet operators as vehicle electrification accelerates across the region. Their discussions will examine how the partnership can contribute to the broader commercial vehicle charging landscape, with additional details expected as the plans develop.

Chery Energy Launches European Partner & Pilot City Network

At IAA Transportation 2026, Chery Energy launched its “European Partner & Pilot City Network” initiative as part of its plans to deepen cooperation with local European partners. The initiative is intended to support the large-scale deployment of energy infrastructure across Europe by developing closer relationships with partners and pilot cities. The launch provides a framework for Chery Energy to explore infrastructure opportunities at the local level while continuing its broader expansion in new energy activities. Hubject’s involvement adds an interoperability dimension to the companies’ discussions around commercial EV charging.

Partnership Targets Commercial Fleet Charging

The partnership brings together two complementary areas of activity relevant to commercial fleet electrification. Hubject contributes eMobility interoperability expertise, while Chery Energy brings its growing involvement in new energy and charging infrastructure. Together, the companies are evaluating how these capabilities could support commercial vehicle charging requirements as electrification expands across European markets. The cooperation remains under discussion, so the announcement does not establish a finalized deployment schedule, infrastructure target, or specific commercial program. Further information is expected as Hubject and Chery Energy continue developing the scope of their cooperation.

European Charging Infrastructure Cooperation

The companies’ discussions also connect the partnership with Chery Energy’s wider European infrastructure ambitions. Through the European Partner & Pilot City Network, Chery Energy plans to pursue in-depth cooperation with local partners to advance energy infrastructure deployment at scale. For commercial fleet operators, interoperability can be relevant to how charging services and infrastructure work across different environments and providers. The partnership therefore links infrastructure development with eMobility interoperability, while the companies continue determining how their cooperation can address the wider commercial vehicle charging landscape in Europe.

Industry Impact & Outlook

The development could contribute to greater coordination between charging infrastructure deployment and interoperability as commercial vehicle electrification expands in Europe. Its practical significance will depend on how Hubject and Chery Energy translate their discussions into defined projects, local partnerships, and scalable charging solutions. Chery Energy’s European Partner & Pilot City Network provides a potential framework for engaging cities and infrastructure partners, while Hubject’s interoperability expertise could support the connectivity of charging services across participating networks. The next stage is therefore likely to center on further discussions and the development of specific cooperation details rather than an immediately defined infrastructure rollout.
