Social media clip: Bayern stars present megawatt charging park at Allianz Arena

In a social media clip, football stars present the joint project of FC Bayern Munich and MAN Truck & Bus for the construction of a megawatt charging park for electric trucks and buses at the Allianz Arena. In entertaining dialogues, Bayern professionals Manuel Neuer, Joshua Kimmich, and Konrad Laimer convey the key facts and ideas behind the project in a playful manner. The one-minute clip can be accessed on YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and MAN Truckers World.

30 Charging Points Planned

The official kick-off for the project to establish one of the largest public charging parks for electric commercial vehicles took place in August in the presence of Bavaria's Prime Minister Dr. Markus Söder, board members of FC Bayern, and MAN. High-performance and megawatt charging points are planned to be built in three development stages at the southern bus parking lot of the Allianz Arena. A total of 30 charging points are planned. This will allow up to 500 electric buses and trucks to be charged daily.

Powerful Power Grid at Allianz Arena

The Allianz Arena has a very powerful power grid, which is only fully utilized on game days. This makes it an ideal location for setting up a commercial vehicle charging park. Additionally, it is located directly at the busy Munich North motorway junction with its own motorway access: Up to 10,000 trucks daily pass this important traffic hub for the entire European road freight transport.
