History

The joint venture was founded as Commercial Vehicle Charging Europe B.V. on 8 July 2022 with an initial investment of 500 million EUR. The three founding companies of the joint venture are Daimler Truck, the Traton Group (Volkswagen Group's heavy vehicle subsidiary), and the Volvo Group. They each own one third of the company. The headquarters of Milence is in Amsterdam, Netherlands and the CEO is Anja van Niersen. The company plans to install and operate at least 1,700 charging points across Europe. Milence opened its first charging hub on 7 December 2023 in Venlo, Netherlands, with phase one consisting of two CCS chargers rated up to 400 kW serving four charging bays. In February 2025, Milence secured over 111.5 million EUR in grants from the European Union's Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Facility (AFIF). In November 2025, Milence stated that it operated 30 public charging hubs across eight European countries.
