Polish private delivery firm builds charging network

Poland’s largest private delivery firm, InPost, has announced plans to build a network of charging points for electric vehicles. GreenWay, which has over 7,000 charging stations in Poland and other central European countries, will be responsible for the installation of the InPost-branded charging stations, the construction of grid connections, and the management and technical maintenance of the stations.The company, which has more than 20,000 parcel machines in Poland, has a fleet of several hundred electric vans.

InPost has already installed over 200 such points available to its drivers at logistics centres and near its parcel lockers, in cooperation with GreenWay. “The expansion of the charger network at our own sites is of particular importance to us due to the decarbonisation strategy of the InPost Group,” said Sebastian Anioł, director of the firm’s logistics innovation department. “We believe that new technologies and trends should be taken into account in the development plans of cities,” he added. “That is why, together with GreenWay, we are working on implementing a widely available network of such devices in Poland.”

While the number of fully or partially electric vehicles registered in Poland has risen rapidly in the two past years and reached 73,695 at the end of April, it still remains well below the Polish government’s target (2019) of having 600.000 electric and hybrid vehicles on the road by 2030. one million electric vehicles on Polish roads by 2025.The number of charging stations in Poland has reached 4,500.

The latest European data, which cover 2021, show that Poland had one of the continent’s lowest figures for newly registered electric cars that year. The country was the only one to object to the EU’s ban on the sale of new petrol and diesel cars from 2035, saying it is too ambitious.
