PowerGo opens its largest charging park in Europe
PowerGo won the tender from the Danish Public Roads Administration (Vejdirektoratet) at the beginning of this year and was thus allowed to expand its network of public charging stations to include the fast-charging site at Lillebælt Syd.
As mentioned, the newly commissioned charging park is located on the E20 motorway, part of the central European transport network (TEN-T). A total of seven Alpitronic High Power Chargers with a charging capacity of up to 400 kW each are available on site, each offering two CCS charging points. Each fast charger also has a CHAdeMO connection (60 kW). Six of the 14 covered parking spaces will be suitable for longer vehicles such as electric cars with trailers.
Customers can pay using a charging card or app from roaming partners, although these are not explicitly listed. Alternatively, they can use the PowerGo app. In this case, customers would benefit from dynamic charging prices. “These are fair and transparent prices that follow the hourly market price on electricity.” Payment by debit or credit card is also available for ad-hoc charging. However, PowerGo does not mention prices in the press release.
This is the second time the Dutch company has won a tender with Vejdirektoratet. They previously worked closely together on another HPC charging park, which opened in Haderup on Route 34. The new site is also part of PowerGo’s initiative to build a European charging network. As part of the latter, PowerGo won eighteen tenders for installing over 1,600 public charging stations in Denmark.
