ORLEN Germany expands e-mobility portfolio

The company will install new fast charging points in its service station network and build dedicated charging sites under the Orlen Charge brand.

Orlen Germany has announced plans to expand its electromobility offering. The company will increase the number of fast charging points in its existing filling station network and build dedicated charging sites over the next few years.

All of the brand’s e-mobility offerings will in future be marketed under the name “Orlen Charge”. The firm has allocated €100 million in investment volume to these plans. Orlen’s strategy is to respond to the rapid growth of the e-mobility market in Germany across its near 600 star and Orlen fuel retail sites.

“The expansion of the e-mobility offerings in our network is another significant step into the future. It is the largest project in the 20-year history of Orlen Germany, and a great challenge and exciting undertaking for all employees,” said Piotr Guział, Chief Development Officer of Orlen Deutschland GmbH.

To successfully implement the programme and complement the existing expertise of the Orlen team, up to 25 new e-mobility experts are to be recruited. The aim is to expand the existing offering over the next three years and to include other mobility solutions. The first step involves the construction of 868 fast charging points.
