Total SA (FP.FR) has been awarded a contract to install 20,000 charging point for electric vehicles in the Netherlands, it said Wednesday.

The network will be installed in the provinces of North-Holland, Flevoland and Utrecht and will cover about 3.2 million people.

The French company said the electricity to power the network will come from renewable sources and will be produced in the country.

"In addition, Total will develop and implement smart charging technologies allowing both a stable grid management at times of high electricity consumption as well as efficient and sustainable charging when cost of energy is more affordable," it said.
