While Europe is lagging well behind the EU Commission's official target for e-car charging infrastructure, retail chains such as Lidl and Kaufland are driving the mobility transition forward. Lidl now operates more charging points than Luxembourg or Ireland. The shops' car parks are perfect for charging while shopping and electricity can be easily used from the nearby grid, which is a decisive boost in alleviating bottlenecks in European charging deserts.
