'Metropolitan Region Amsterdam Electric' (MRA-Electric) has
awarded Europe's largest concession contract for electric vehicles
charging to Total (Paris:FP) (LSE:TTA) (NYSE:TOT). Under this
agreement, Total will install and operate up to 20,000 new public
charging points in the Netherlands, in the three provinces of
North-Holland, Flevoland and Utrecht*.
This new contract intends to address the fast growing demand for
public Electric Vehicle (EV) charging points in the Netherlands.
This EV charging network covers a population of 3,2 million
inhabitants and around 15% of the current Netherlands EV charging
demand.
Total Netherlands' is already the main EV charging operator in
the MRA-Electric region, with over 4 500 public charging points
under operation and accessible to the public. The size of this new
contract, the largest ever in Europe, is the logical resultant of
the success of the existing EV charging solutions available in the
MRA, combined with Total's expertise in installation, operations
and management of public EV charging networks.
As part of this concession contract, the electricity supplied by
Total Netherlands to the EV charging network will be 100 % sourced
from renewable power (Solar, Wind, ...) and produced in the
country. Total Netherlands has additionally pledged to gradually
source part of it from the MRA region itself, enabling EV drivers
to charge their electric vehicles with locally-generated and
sustainable energy. Total Netherlands will also study new solar
power production opportunities in the MRA region.
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.
"We are happy to have been awarded the largest public Electric
Vehicle charging contract in Europe by 'Metropolitan Region
Amsterdam Electric'." highlights Alexis Vovk, President for
Marketing & Services and Member of the Executive Committee at
Total. "By combining the experience and legacy of our team in the
Netherlands -formally PitPoint Clean Fuels**- with the expertise of
Total in EV charging and in Solar Power, we were able to present an
innovative offer fitting the needs of both the MRA-Electric and the
future users. For Total, providing the Dutch EV drivers with such
reliable charging infrastructure and services, powered by clean and
renewable electricity, is a significant and unprecedented step
toward sustainable mobility. It is in line with our ambition to
operate 150,000 charging point by Europe by 2025 and to become a
major player in the electric mobility business."
"Thanks to the project approach of Metropolitan Region Amsterdam
Electric (MRA-E), governments and private companies, we can work
together and stimulate electric transport. Together on the way to
clean air !" declared Maarten Linnenkamp, Project Manager for
'Electric Mobility' at the Metropolitan Region of Amsterdam: "
* With the exception of the municipalities of Amsterdam and
Utrecht** As of January 1st 2020, PitPoint's offerings have been
merged into Total.
