Official launch of Fast-E project co-financed by the European Union and nine companies, including Renault, in Berlin and Brussels.
-
241 charging stations installed in Germany and 37 in Belgium by the end of 2016.
-
A sister project between the Czech Republic and Slovakia adds another 30 charging stations.
The 278 charging points set up every 80 km along Germany and Belgium’s main motorways, will allow drivers of electric vehicles to “refuel” and extend their car’s range. The total investment of the EU-funded cooperation is approximately €18 million.
Every one of the multi-standard fast-chargers spread out over four countries have AC and DC connections, allowing drivers to charge their vehicles’ batteries easily and quickly. Electric vehicles can be charge up to 80% on the charging stations within an hour.
