What Zapp does
Zapp (now NRGi Zapp) is a Denmark-based provider of electric vehicle charging solutions, founded in 2020 in Aarhus and operating today as a wholly-owned unit of NRGi Elhandel A/S following its 2023/2024 integration into the NRGi group. The company's core offering is the resale and distribution of Zaptec-manufactured AC charging stations, primarily the Zaptec Go (priced at 2,495 DKK, up to 22 kW, WiFi/4G, RFID/app access) and the Zaptec Go 2 (5,295 DKK, V2G-prepared, solar-compatible), supplemented by accessories (Type 2 cables, RFID cards, covers, cable holders) and professional installation services delivered within roughly three weeks of order. Differentiated technical functionality is delivered through the NRGi Opladning mobile app and the SmartCharge feature, which schedules vehicle charging to coincide with low-price windows on the NRGi Time variable electricity contract (priced at cost plus 9 øre/kWh), with claimed savings of several hundred DKK per month versus peak-price charging.
Zapp serves three customer segments: residential homeowners as the primary buyer (direct-to-consumer via the Shopify-powered zapp.dk webshop), business and enterprise customers (workplace and fleet charging, with custom quotes via direct sales), and housing associations / boligforeninger (shared infrastructure for multi-unit residential buildings). The revenue model combines one-time hardware sales, recurring electricity margin on NRGi Time contracts, professional installation fees, and accessory sales, with newer monthly subscription bundles (NRGi Flex and Flex Plus) layering service and electricity onto the hardware. Distribution is omnichannel within Denmark: own e-commerce storefront, NRGi retail/network cross-sell, dedicated enterprise sales, and a Monta-powered public charging map integration.
The business is operated with a small team (1-10 employees) and has accumulated 15,000+ installations through 2024, earning 4.2-4.3 star Trustpilot ratings. No external venture funding rounds are disclosed beyond a 2023 strategic stake taken by Heymate (Danske Heymate); the company has not raised a priced institutional round, and revenue is not publicly disclosed. The strategic positioning is as the consumer-facing EV charging brand of NRGi's energy retail business, leveraging parent-company electricity supply as the structural advantage behind SmartCharge.

Company assessmentDirect peers
- EVBox: European EV charging hardware and software provider offering residential (Livo) and commercial solutions. Overlaps with Zapp's product scope and broader European market positioning.
- Easee: Norwegian EV charging hardware and operating system provider with strong Nordic market presence. Directly competes with Zaptec/Zapp in residential and small commercial EV charging across Denmark and Norway.

- Zaptec: Norwegian manufacturer of the Zaptec Go and Zaptec Go 2 charging stations that Zapp resells. Direct supply and product overlap makes Zaptec both a partner and the closest comparable in terms of EV charging hardware in the Nordic market.
- Alfen: Dutch provider of EV charging stations, smart grids, and energy storage. Comparable to Zapp in EV charging hardware for residential and commercial, with broader energy management capabilities similar to NRGi's ecosystem approach.
Broad incumbents
- ChargePoint: Large incumbent in EV charging network operations and hardware across North America and Europe. While primarily commercial-focused, its residential offering and broad portfolio represent a scaled comparable in the same industry.
- Tesla Supercharger / Wall Connector: Tesla offers the Wall Connector for home charging and a vast Supercharger network. As the dominant EV brand with proprietary charging hardware, Tesla represents the broad incumbent in residential EV charging.
Emerging players
- Monta: Danish EV charging management platform integrated with Zapp for public charging maps. Comparable in software/CPMS layer and represents the technology partner Zapp uses for enterprise charging management.
Regional players
- Clever: Danish EV charging operator owned by NRGi-owned partners and other utilities, focused on public and semi-public charging. Regional peer with overlapping Danish market presence though primarily focused on public charging infrastructure.
Others
- NRGi (parent company): Danish energy company and Zapp's parent. Not a direct competitor but provides the electricity supply ecosystem, distribution network, and customer base that constitute Zapp's core competitive advantage.
