Thanks to Atlante's distinctive technological approach, the joint venture will facilitate access to public fast charging for electric vehicles across France. It will include areas with limited available energy and network constraints, while helping to reduce energy access inequalities and encouraging more people to switch to e-mobility.
The new fast charging stations will be powered 100% by renewable energy certified by Guarantees of Origin and, where applicable, by on-site solar energy. Atlante will also integrate battery energy storage systems, allowing users to benefit from a smoother charging experience, even during peak periods, and at a more advantageous rate.
Alpis, the joint venture company formed, has some 40 million euros of equity, contributed 51% by Atlante and 49% by the Banque des Territoires. Additionally, acting as an implementing partner of the European Union under the Transport - Alternative Fuel Infrastructure Facility (AFIF) component of the Connecting Europe Facility, the Banque des Territoires, through its financial commitment, has facilitated the obtaining of approximately 50 million euros in grants for Atlante across four countries, enabling Atlante to deploy a network of charging stations throughout Southern Europe.
