According to statistics, the global sales of shared power bank stations reached approximately 2.86 million units in 2024, and by 2031, the global market size is expected to reach 26.19 billion yuan, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.2%. As one of the most promising developed countries in Europe, Germany’s shared power bank market has vast potential, attracting increasing attention from enterprises and investors.
I. Market Analysis of Shared Power Banks in Germany
1. Current Market Situation
As the core market in Europe, Germany is seeing a continuous increase in the deployment density of shared power banks. Leading brands are commonly leveraging IoT platforms for real-time monitoring, fault alerts, and remote maintenance, which significantly improves operational efficiency and reduces labor costs.
From a usage perspective, shared power banks have been widely deployed in restaurants, shopping malls, and transportation hubs. Data from 2023 shows that transportation-related locations saw growth of 40%–70%, while traditional dining venues remain the primary growth driver. With faster living and travel paces, the demand for instant charging in public spaces is expanding rapidly.
2. Demand Fundamentals
Germany has an internet penetration rate of 93.5% (around 78.77 million users) and a smartphone adoption rate of 78.8%, providing a solid foundation for mobile charging demand. More than 80% of residents have experienced battery shortages while away from home, making shared power banks a necessity.
Additionally, Germany’s frequent business travel and more than 400 million international tourist arrivals each year create strong emergency charging needs at transportation hubs and tourist attractions, further driving market growth.
3. Concept Alignment and Policy Support
The operational model of shared power banks aligns closely with Germany’s long-standing advocacy for “resource recycling.” Over the past year, the usage volume of shared power banks in core German cities has grown by more than 50%. Meanwhile, the EU’s strict electronic device safety regulations (e.g., CE certification) have pushed companies to continuously improve product safety and standardization. In this market, “compliance equals competitiveness.” Regulations not only raise market entry barriers but also provide brand advantages for high-quality operators.
