PowerGo opens its largest ultra-fast charging hub in Europe
Dutch charging point operator PowerGo has opened its largest ultra-fast charging hub in Europe. The new fast-charging park in Denmark comprises seven 400 kW chargers with two charging points each.
The new charging location has six parking spaces that can accommodate longer vehicles such as cars with trailers, including camping trailers, or cars adapted for people with disabilities. The charging hub is located at Lillebælt Syd along highway E20, which is part of Europe’s central transport network (TEN-T).
PowerGo won the tender with the Danish Road Directorate (Vejdirektoratet) earlier this year and was given the opportunity to expand its network of public charging stations with the ultra-fast charging location at Lillebælt Syd.
Dynamic charging prices
Like at the rest of PowerGo’s charging locations, drivers at Lillebælt Syd can charge with the certainty of green energy. PowerGo works with 100 percent solar energy, generated from solar parks operated by its parent company PowerField. When drivers charge with PowerGo, they experience dynamic charging prices, that follow the hourly market price on electricity. EV drivers can pay with their charging card, debit or credit card, or with the free PowerGo Charge app.
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. PowerGo won eighteen tenders for installing over 1,600 public charging stations in Denmark.
