The municipality of Amsterdam has awarded the concession for the
expansion of its public charging network for electric vehicles (EV)
to TotalEnergies. As part of this new concession, TotalEnergies
will expand Amsterdam's current network with 2,200 new EV charging
points, to be installed by fall 2022.
The installation of 1,100 chargers, each equipped with two
charging points, will give a boost to the Clean Air Action Plan of
the Municipality of Amsterdam, which aims to realize completely
emission-free transport by 2030. One of the main challenges of this
ambition is to facilitate enough charging points to support the
strong growth of electric vehicles.
Amsterdam has selected TotalEnergies, through its subsidiary
TotalEnergies Marketing Nederland, as a key partner to realize this
increase in scale. TotalEnergies focuses on a hassle-free and
transparent customer experience for the e-driver, while
guaranteeing both the availability and the quality of the charging
service.
For the first time in Amsterdam, Total Energies will make
large-scale use of clustering of chargers and the expansion of the
charging network will be partly based on requests from e-drivers.
In addition, a data-driven approach will be used, in which the load
on the current charging network is monitored to determine optimal
locations. When charging demand on the current charging network
will become high, chargers will be proactively added. In this way
TotalEnergies ensures that there will always be enough charging
points to meet the demand. To further shape the required scaling-up
and the growing demand for charging, as many clusters of chargers
as necessary will also be installed in Amsterdam.
This policy of the municipality of Amsterdam, supported by
TotalEnergies, is a striking example of joint efforts towards more
sustainable and emission-free mobility, delivering affordable
energy that is increasingly reliable and accessible to as many
people as possible.
Deputy Mayor (Alderman) Egbert de Vries (Traffic, Transport,
Water and Air Quality) of the municipality of Amsterdam stated:
"With the installation of 2,200 new charging points in the city, we
are taking the next important step towards cleaner air for all
Amsterdam residents. Together with TotalEnergies, we will continue
to work on the roll-out of a reliable charging network, which is
essential for the transition to electric transport. I look forward
to a great collaboration."
"This partnership with the City of Amsterdam will support
TotalEnergies' ambition to further accelerate its transformation
into a broad energy company. We are delighted with the trust the
municipality is giving us for the coming years and we will bring
our expertise to support the evolution of its citizens' mobility,"
underlined Alexis Vovk, President Marketing & Services at
TotalEnergies. "Our promises are to deliver 100% renewable electric
charging services and user experience, aligned with their
expectations. This offering will come in addition to the
multi-energy mobility services TotalEnergies already provides to
its customers across the Netherlands, serving both customers as
well as professionals."
TotalEnergies is already the largest EV charging operator in the
Metropolitan Region of Amsterdam (MRA-Electric), which includes the
three provinces of Noord-Holland, Flevoland and Utrecht, with over
6.500 charging points in operation and accessible to the public.
TotalEnergies is also active in the operation of charging
infrastructure in major European capitals and urban areas: London
(Source London), Paris (Bélib') and the Brussels-Capital Region in
Belgium, as well as in the B2B segment in Germany and throughout
its service-stations network in Western Europe.
This new concession from the municipality of Amsterdam
reinforces TotalEnergies' position as a key player in electric
mobility in Europe. The company is thereby pursuing its development
in major European cities, in line with its ambition to operate more
than 150,000 charging points for electric vehicles by 2025.
