A total of 904 Allego charging stations for electric vehicles are now available for destination charging at strategic locations such as car parks of hypermarkets, rest stops along the motorway network, or restaurants near thoroughfares.
This public ultra-fast network is the first in France to be deployed on a large scale at these types of destinations. It is open to all types of vehicles with a charging capacity ranging from 22kW to 300kW and has already avoided an equivalent of 2,000 tons of CO² emissions since its opening.
The deployment is part of the French government's overall objective to support electromobility in France, and specifically contributes to its 100,000 charging stations objective.
These stations have been designed as true ‘urban-mobility hubs’ with 1,717 charge points dedicated to e-mobility. Bicycles, scooters, or electric scooters can be recharged on dedicated points while shopping for groceries.
"Allego is demonstrating its ability to deploy and maintain charging infrastructure on a very large scale. We want to position ourselves as a partner of choice to support landowners in the valuation of their assets and in their adaptation to the new modes of transport of their customers,” said Mathieu Bonnet, Allego’s CEO.
To date, Allego operates 120 ultra-fast public EV charging hubs in France. By 2024, that will rise to more than 300 hubs deployed throughout the country.
