Company Overview: Easee
Easee is a relatively young EV charger manufacturer, set up by Norwegian entrepreneurs in 2018. However, Easee has gained market leadership in Norway, in a relatively short span of time. The company has also gained a strong presence in the broader Scandinavian region and continues to grow its geographic footprint, exporting to over 17 countries in Europe.
Easee has been recognised for its Scandinavian influenced modern and minimalist design, blending easily into a residential or business environment. Apart from design, the Easee EV chargers are also technically strong and at par with some of the leading global EV charge point manufacturers. The company employs over 250 individuals and continues to grow its workforce. The core vision of the three co-founders is to create the ‘world’s smartest electric vehicle charger’. The electric vehicle chargers are developed and manufactured in Norway.
