As part of the Energy of Moscow project, the first powerful 150 kW fast charging stations have been installed in Moscow. Charging an electric car at these stations takes an average of 30 minutes.
According to Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Transport and Industry Maxim Liksutov, almost 250 charging stations operate in the capital as part of the Energy of Moscow project. Two new stations with a capacity of 150 kW are located at the following addresses: Denezhny Pereulok, 8-10 and Vozdvizhenka Street, 10.
We have installed the first 150 kW charging stations, the charging time of which is about 30 minutes. By 2030, the number of charging stations in Moscow will increase to 30,000. We will also install taxi and car sharing hubs with the ability to simultaneously charge 10-15 cars. We thank all our operators for their work, which allows us to develop a network of charging stations in the city. We strive to make the capital one of the world leaders in the use of electric transport. This task was set by Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin, – added Maxim Liksutov.
The new stations have the ability to charge 2 cars simultaneously and are equipped with GB/T and CCS Combo 2 connectors for the most popular models of electric cars.
Using the Moscow Transport app, you can find a free station, plot a route to it, and book a charging session.
As part of the Energy of Moscow project, about 250 free electric vehicle charging stations (FEVCS) have been installed in the capital. Electric vehicle owners are exempt from paying transport tax and can park for free throughout the city.
Since the launch of the first Energy of Moscow charging station in March 2021, electric vehicle owners have completed more than 640,000 charging sessions. All stations are located in places where city residents spend the most time – near shopping and business centers, parks, residential buildings, cafes and shops.
According to plans, by 2030, 30,000 EVS will appear in the capital, and the number of electric vehicles in Moscow will increase to 320,000 – 7% of the total number of cars. In addition, hubs for taxis and car sharing will be installed with the ability to simultaneously charge 10-15 cars.
