The government presents its road map to accelerate the deployment of load stations for electric vehicles in France. When moving to Haÿ-Llesses in the Paris region this Friday, May 16, Eric Lombard, Minister of the Economy, and Marc Ferracci, Minister Responsible for Industry and Energy, announced that he wanted to take 7 million the number of terminals installed throughout the territory in 2030, against 2.5 million currently.
Among them, 160,000 now have free access to the public. The goal is that 400,000 are in five years.
Improvement of Information and Implementation of Smart Prices
The government also intends to work to improve user information about public charge stations. To achieve this, you want to configure an open data platform by the end of 2025, which will allow real access to real time to the availability of terminals, consultation of collected prices, access to a load cost and emotional invoices.
Another desire of the Executive is to develop “intelligent prices” to allow “better synchronize recharge moments with the availability of electricity.” This will include the implementation of a system of “super hollow” hours for night recharge and the creation of solar hours (from 11 am to 5 pm) to optimize the use of photovoltaic energy. Specific electricity contracts for electric vehicle owners could also arise.
To facilitate daily recharge, the government wants to reduce the period to 6 months between the decision to install a terminal and its implementation in a condominium. Thirty social owners will also mobilize to display the terminals in their residences. Finally, ministers want to work with employers to allow employees without home solution to recharge in their workplace.
