European Commission’s Innovation and Networks Executive Agency (INEA) has launched the Project European Long-Distance Electric Clean Transport Road Infrastructure Corridor (ELECTRIC).
The project is funded by the Trans-European Transport Networks (TEN-T) programme and the European Union.
It is expected to support the installation of a corridor of high-quality fast chargers along the key European motorways by the end of next year.
This €8.4m project will develop an open access fast charging corridor along major motorways connecting Sweden, Denmark, Germany and the Netherlands.
As part of the project, a total of 155 foreseen chargers will be installed, which include up to 30 in the Netherlands, 23 in Denmark, 35 in Sweden and 67 in Germany.
The project will be carried out by a consortium consisting of Netherlands' fast charge solutions provdier ABB, Dutch e-mobility operator Fastned, Danish firm CLEVER, Sweden's resundskraft and German German Testing and Certification Institute VDE Prüf-und Zertifizierungsinstitut.
