Schaeffler has said it plans to add more than 5,000 additional charging points for EVs worldwide.

These include 3,000 charging points at European locations.

The locations for the pilot projects will be in Germany, in Herzogenaurach and Schweinfurt. Following the successful completion of the test phase, the project will be gradually rolled out in all other regions of the Schaeffler Group

Andreas Schick, Chief Operating Officer of Schaeffler AG, said: “Schaeffler stands for sustainability and is committed to e-mobility. Through this project, we will increase Schaeffler’s attractiveness as a sustainable employer and further motivate our workforce to act in an environmentally conscious manner.”

The expansion plan for the Herzogenaurach location allows for the construction of a further 245 charging points for employees, company cars, and visitors in 2025.

In Schweinfurt, the electrical infrastructure will first be expanded to allow the construction of a further 122 charging points. Initial operation is planned for 2025.

"Schaeffler to add 5,000 worldwide charging points by 2030" was originally created and published by Just Auto, a GlobalData owned brand.
