The Spark Alliance is a unique collaboration between Europe’s leading fast-charging companies.

Four industry-leading European EV charging companies have partnered to create the Spark Alliance; Europe’s largest and most trusted EV charging network.

The CEOs of Atlante, Electra, Fastned and IONITY - all major European ‘pure-player’ companies dedicated to EV charging - confirmed the first of its kind collaboration on April 02, 2025, at the Cercle de l'Union Interalliée in Paris.

The aim of the Spark Alliance is to create one seamless charging network, simplifying the charging experience and making EV ownership easier than ever. From summer 2025, drivers will be able to charge and pay at any Spark Alliance station.

Europe’s largest charging network in one app

The Spark Alliance directly tackles the key challenges faced by EV owners today. Finding the best public chargers in the maze of different operators, apps, and pricing structures can be overwhelming, and successfully completing a charging session often requires downloading a new app or inputting a new payment method.

The Spark Alliance will solve this confusion. EV drivers will soon be able to seamlessly access, charge and pay at any of over 1,700 Spark Alliance member stations, with simple and transparent prices - regardless of their EV’s brand or model. To do so, they can simply use their favorite charge point operator’s app, without the need to download a new one.

To help drivers find the most reliable nearby station while on the road, Spark Alliance members will display not only their own stations in their app’s route planners, but also those of fellow members. This will make it easier than ever to find one of 11,000 high quality charging points across 25 European countries, all supplying 100% renewable power, during their journey.

Boosting the shift to electric mobility

The Spark Alliance represents a major step forward in driver confidence and a pivotal change in the charging industry. This groundbreaking collaboration paves the way for the democratization of EV charging in public, setting the standards for mass adoption of EVs in Europe.

Atlante, Electra, Fastned and IONITY share the mission to accelerate the transition to electric mobility and drive a fossil-free future. By uniting forces, they are removing key barriers to EV ownership and enabling seamless EV travel across Europe, whether for daily commutes, business trips or special holiday journeys.
