E.ON has launched its first dedicated charging site for electric trucks in Germany, located on the grounds of the port of Hamburg along the A7 motorway.
This site features four charging stations, each equipped with a 400-kilowatt charger, allowing trucks to recharge during the mandatory 45-minute break required by law.
Depending on the truck model, this charging time provides enough energy for approximately 300 kilometres of driving.
The charging stations are designed with future upgrades in mind, allowing for the installation of megawatt charging technology, which will enable even faster charging times.
The spacious parking and charging bays, measuring three meters wide and 25 meters long, are suitable for articulated lorries, eliminating the need to uncouple trailers or semi-trailers.
Drivers can initiate and pay for the charging process using a charging card, app, or credit card terminal for ad hoc charging.
In addition to these new stations at the Port of Hamburg, E.ON Drive Infrastructure also operates dedicated e-truck charging stations in Sweden and Denmark, with further sites planned in Germany and across Europe.
