E-MOBILITÄT ÖSTERREICH

What E-MOBILITÄT ÖSTERREICH does

Bundesverband Elektromobilität Österreich (BEÖ) is a non-profit association (Gemeinnütziger Verein, ZVR 068790346) founded in 2017 and headquartered in Linz, Austria, that represents 13 Austrian energy companies active in the electric mobility sector. Its members include Burgenland Energie, Energie AG, Energie Graz, Energie Steiermark, EVN, IKB, illwerke VKW, KELAG, LINZ AG, Salzburg AG, TINEXT, Wels Strom, and Wien Energie. BEÖ functions as an industry association rather than a commercial operator: it coordinates the rollout of public charging infrastructure among its members, advocates for legal frameworks and incentive systems that accelerate e-mobility adoption, and operates Austria's largest roaming-capable public charging network of approximately 15,000 charging points across 4,898 locations.

The association's core technology is the eRoaming-enabled charging network, which links charge point operators and mobility providers through standardized data exchange so that EV drivers can access any member's charging station using a single card or app. Supporting assets include an interactive charging-station finder map showing BEÖ-member stations (blue pins) and third-party stations (grey pins), sourced from e-control; a renewable-energy commitment across the network; and the publicly accessible BEÖ 5-Punkte-Programm covering public, home/work, truck/bus, greening, and digitalization policy positions. Communications and member services include the "elektromobil" podcast, a monthly e-newsletter with archives from 2022, the annual E-Mobilitätstage conference co-organized with Oesterreichs Energie, and a fact-check educational section.

BEÖ generates no commercial revenue from charging services; the organization is funded by membership fees from its 13 energy-company members, governed by a board of representatives drawn from those members, with Andreas Reinhardt (LINZ AG) serving as Chair since August 2021 and Julia Müller as Secretary General. Pricing of charging services is set by individual member companies rather than by the association. End-user segments include private EV owners using public or home charging, commercial fleet and logistics operators (with growing attention to heavy-duty truck charging), employers deploying workplace charging, and the member utilities themselves, who rely on BEÖ for policy representation, network interoperability coordination, and shared public-facing data services.

Core offering

BEÖ operates a nationwide eRoaming-capable public charging network connecting 13 Austrian energy company members, enabling EV drivers to charge at any member station with a single card or app through data exchange between charge point operators and mobility providers. The association also advocates for e-mobility policy, publishes national statistics on EV adoption, and operates an interactive charging station finder map. Charging is delivered with 100% renewable electricity sourced from member utilities.

Product overview

E-MOBILITÄT ÖSTERREICH (BEÖ) is a federal association representing 13 Austrian energy companies that promotes electromobility using renewable energy. The organization operates the BEÖ Roaming-Netz (eRoaming network) as its core product—a nationwide, interoperable charging infrastructure network enabling EV drivers to charge across Austria using a single access method. Supporting services include an interactive charging station finder map, the elektromobil podcast, the BEÖ e-newsletter, and educational fact-check content. The association also advocates for policy positions through its 5-Punkte-Programm covering public charging, home/work charging, truck/bus charging, ecological mobility, and digitalization.

Broad incumbents

• ChargePoint: One of the largest independent EV charging networks globally, operating across Europe. Provides networked charging hardware and software with roaming — a technology and scale comparable to what BEÖ aims to coordinate across Austrian members.
• Tesla Supercharger: Tesla's proprietary ultra-fast charging network. While closed historically, it is opening to other brands and operates numerous sites in Austria, competing for highway and urban charging demand that BEÖ members serve.
• Ionity: European high-power charging (HPC) network jointly backed by BMW, Mercedes, Ford, Hyundai, VW, and Audi. Operates ultra-fast charging sites across Austrian highways and competes directly with BEÖ member highway investments.
• EVBox: European EV charging hardware and software provider with a large installed base across the continent. Its networked charging solutions compete with the roaming platform BEÖ orchestrates, particularly for workplace and commercial fleet charging.
• Shell Recharge: Shell Austria (already a BEÖ partner) is rolling out ultra-fast charging at fuel stations. As an oil-major-backed CPO with deep capital, Shell Recharge competes for the same retail and highway charging demand that BEÖ members target.
• Allego: Pan-European public charging network operator with utility backing (originally part of Alliander). Operates ultra-fast and fast charging hubs across Europe including Austria, comparable in scale and cross-border ambition to BEÖ's domestic network.
• EnBW mobility+: German utility EnBW's EV charging business, which absorbed SMATRICS. Operates one of Germany's and Austria's largest public charging networks with roaming, comparable in scale and model (utility-affiliated) to the BEÖ federation.

Regional players

• Vattenfall InCharge: Swedish utility Vattenfall's public charging network, primarily active in Northern Europe (Germany, Netherlands, Sweden). Comparable utility-affiliated CPO model with a focus on renewable-powered charging, similar in design intent to BEÖ's Austrian member network.

Direct peers

• SMATRICS (EnBW mobility+ Austria): SMATRICS was Austria's largest independent CPO until integration with EnBW mobility+. It directly competes with the BEÖ roaming network on public charging and was already connected via the 2019 roaming agreement — the closest functional competitor in Austria.

Others

• Oesterreichs Energie: Austria's main energy industry association co-organizing the E-Mobilitätstage conference with BEÖ. Not a charging operator itself, but the closest industry-association peer and BEÖ's strategic partner on policy and events.
