Bauhaus and EnBW: More than 450 fast charging points nationwide
Bauhaus and the energy company EnBW have already installed more than 450 fast charging points at over 85 locations of the hardware store chain nationwide. With an average charging time of around 27 minutes, this theoretically allows for 24,000 charging processes per day. More locations will follow in the future: Next year, the two partners aim to reach the 100 mark with then more than 500 charging points. At the same time, the two partners want to densify existing locations with additional fast-charging options.
Around 30,000 EnBW Fast Charging Points by 2030
Jürgen Stein, Chief Innovation & New Business Officer at EnBW, who is also responsible for the e-mobility sector within the company, says: "Drivers simply charge where their car is already parked, even without a wallbox at home or a slow regular charging station around the corner. People conveniently charge while they shop."
EnBW operates more than 5,000 fast charging points nationwide and wants to increase this number to around 30,000 by 2030, six times the current amount. The energy company invests approximately 200 million euros each year for this purpose.
But electric charging stations in DIY store parking lots are not only advantageous for Bauhaus customers. Thanks to their convenient traffic connections – usually near expressways or highways – they are also easily accessible for drivers who want to quickly top up during long trips.
