Electric Vehicles: Total to Operate 2,300 EV Charge Points of the Bélib’
Network in Paris
Total (Paris:FP) (LSE:TTA) (NYSE:TOT) has won the City of Paris’ concession
tender for the modernization and extension of its public Electric Vehicles
(EV) charge points network, installed throughout the French capital city. The
Council of Paris awarded to Total the management of its on-street public
network for the 10 coming years.
This public service concession covers the supply, installation and technical
and commercial operation of this charge points network. The new network, which
combines the Belib’ network -from which it derives its name- and the former
Autolib’ network, will ultimately encompass 2,300 EV charge points, an
increase of 56% compared to the number currently in service.
Total is committed to the modernization of the current equipment and will
additionally install fast-charging hubs, located at selected underground
parking lots. Total will offer attractive energy tariffs adapted to the needs
of the EV drivers, in addition to a seamless and simplified customer
experience while ensuring both availability and quality of the services.
Total has also included in its proposal the development of solar farms in
France that will be dedicated to covering the entire electricity needs of this
network, providing Parisian users with a 100% renewable electricity charge for
their vehicles.
“This partnership with the City of Paris enables us to accelerate our
transformation toward a broad energy company. We are delighted by the trust
placed in us by the Council of Paris for the 10 coming years, through this
concession, for the Bélib’ network management and modernization. Following
Amsterdam, Brussels and London, another major European city is henceforth
building on Total’s expertise to foster the transition of its citizens’
mobility. As such, our promise is to provide our customers with a 100%
renewable electricity charge and a service that meets their expectations.”
underlined Alexis Vovk, President, Marketing & Services at Total. “This
Belib’ offer will complement the electric mobility services that Total
already provides to its customers, both individuals and professionals: at
work, at home, in public spaces, in commercial areas or in our service
stations.”
