Vattenfall and Consid partner for an inspiring EV charging hackathon challenge
Are you ready to drive innovation in the e-mobility sector? Vattenfall is the proud partner of Considition 2025, a global hackathon dedicated to sustainable electric vehicle charging. Join our challenge now!
Considation 2025 offers real-world data, meaningful challenges, and exciting prizes for top solutions.
Considition 2025 is more than a competition—it is a collaboration between Vattenfall’s IT department and Consid’s digital innovation team. This year’s challenge invites you to take on the role of a strategist for an urban electricity grid system.
Using AI and machine learning, you will develop advanced algorithms to optimise EV charging, balancing customer satisfaction, cost efficiency and power distribution capacity.
The hackathon practice period runs from 3 November to 12 November, followed by the big final on 13 November.
Participants will use the PowerZone game, which simulates a real-world charging network and customer movement. In the simulation, powered by real Vattenfall data, your solutions will be tested in a dynamic virtual environment, providing valuable insights for the future of fossil-free transport.
Your skills and creativity could make a real difference in how cities manage electric vehicle charging. Join us in this inspiring journey and help us lead the way to a greener tomorrow.
