What is a roaming network?

A roaming network is a network of charge points that ensures that you, as a driver of an Electric Vehicle (EV), can charge your EV at different brands of charging points (also known as charge point providers). This is possible because these providers make agreements with each other and support 'interoperability'. In practice, this means that you can also charge at Ionity and Fastned charge points with the Shell Recharge charge card. This means you do not need your own charge cards from all the different providers, and your charging options increase with one card. This also means that our charging network, also known as roaming network, does not only consist of Shell Recharge charge points, but also includes those of other providers.
