EUROPE —Nidec Conversion, a business segment of Nidec Group specializing in power conversion and energy solutions, has entered into a strategic partnership with BNP Paribas Leasing Solutions to support the rollout of electric vehicle charging infrastructure (EVCI) across Europe.
According to official statements, the agreement will provide structured equipment financing to facilitate the acquisition of Nidec Conversion’s charging systems and related services.
The financing program will be available in Italy, Spain, the DACH region, BeNe countries, France, the UK, Norway, Finland, Sweden, Poland and Romania. It targets a broad customer base, including charging point operators, fleet managers, fuel retailers, service providers and commercial operators seeking to electrify transport assets.
BNP Paribas Leasing Solutions, a European provider of equipment finance and a subsidiary of BNP Paribas, supports businesses in acquiring professional equipment through leasing and structured finance models. By integrating financial solutions with technology deployment, the partnership seeks to address one of the primary constraints in EV infrastructure expansion: upfront capital expenditure.
The collaboration comes as European governments tighten decarbonization targets and expand regulatory support for clean mobility. Easier access to financing could accelerate private-sector investment in charging networks, benefiting automotive, energy, retail and logistics sectors. For investors and operators, the initiative signals a growing convergence between financial services and clean energy technology providers, potentially reshaping competitive dynamics in the European EV ecosystem.
