France: TotalEnergies Allocates €200 Million to Equip its Highway Service
Stations with High-Power EV Charge Points
TotalEnergies (Paris:TTE) (LSE:TTE) (NYSE:TTE) will allocate up to €200
million over a year to equip more than 150 of its motorway and expressway
service stations with high-power charge points for electric vehicles.
This major investment is intended to support the growth of electric mobility
in France:
* By end-2021, 60 motorway service stations will be equipped with high-power EV
charge points (50 to 175 kW).
* By end-2022, more than 110 TotalEnergies motorway and expressway service
stations will be equipped with high-power EV charging stations (175 kW charge
points). In parallel, TotalEnergies will actively participate in the upcoming
calls for tenders from the motorway operators.
* By 2023, TotalEnergies aims to have 200 service stations equipped with
high-power EV charge points on these major roads, along with 100 additional
stations in urban areas, notably in the form of high-power charging hubs. With
these moves, TotalEnergies is reaffirming its ambition to offer to its
customers a high-power charging station every 150 kilometers.
“Thanks to the revenue generated from our oil and gas businesses, we can
massively invest in electric vehicles charging infrastructures and accelerate
our transformation,” underlines Alexis Vovk, President Marketing &
Services at TotalEnergies. “Our assertive positioning therefore supports the
growth of electric mobility for long-distance travel. The installation of
high-power EV charge points in our motorway and expressway service stations in
France contributes to the public authorities’ 100,000 Charge Points Plan.”
This acceleration is a pillar of TotalEnergies’ strategy to be a key player
in electric mobility in Europe, especially in France.
Since 2020, TotalEnergies pursues its development in world-class metropolitan
areas, with a large portfolio of EV charge points in operation or under
construction in Amsterdam and its Metropolitan Region (22,000), Antwerp
(3,000), London (1,700), Paris (2,300), Singapore (1,500) and Wuhan (11,000).
High-Power Charging
High-power charging is a technology that allows to charge compatible electric
vehicles at installations with a power supply above 50 kW.
Depending on the type of vehicle, high-power charging can deliver 100
kilometers of driving range in six minutes and bring the battery up to around
80% capacity in around 20 minutes, the average duration of most motorway stops
for motorists.
TotalEnergies notably offers 175 kW high-power chargers and will be providing
customers with chargers that have a power supply of up to 300 kW.
