Vattenfall has partnered with the City of Amsterdam to roll out a smart public charging network for electric vehicles. Operating under the name Flexpower, the project has converted a third of the city's charging stations to the new system, with 456 total stations and 912 of Vattenfall's charging points. The programme, which also counts local network owner Liander as a contributor, is designed to optimise charging based on grid capacity, decreasing electricity use during those hours and upping consumption when demand is low.
