The Gazpromneft network, together with the Committee for Economic Development and Investment Activities of the Leningrad Region and PJSC Rosseti Lenenergo, has installed the first three ultra-high-speed charging stations for electric vehicles at gas stations in the region. This was reported by the press service of the network.
As Vitaly Polzik, head of Gazprom Neft Business Development Department, noted, the company sees great potential in the development of the electric transport market, which will grow due to the expansion of the model range, the availability and development of electric vehicles. charging infrastructure
“Our team, especially in Moscow, St. Petersburg and the main highways are developing plans for development in the market of electric infrastructure and services for electric transport. Next year, we plan to repeat the high-speed station project, trying various forms to create “electric charging hubs” – both charging modules at our gas stations and separate electric charging stations in public spaces,” he said.
In turn, Dmitry Yalov, Deputy Head of the Government of the Leningrad Region, Chairman of the Committee on Economic Development and Investment Activities, emphasized that the number of tourists with cars is increasing, as well as the fact that residents of the region are increasingly switching to electric vehicles. and high transit interregional flow is maintained.
“Therefore, it is particularly important to us to provide high-quality transport infrastructure. By continuing the project, we plan to establish 68 fast electricity charging stations in 3 years.”
Representatives of the Gazprom Neft network announced that the capacity of installed electric charging stations is 150 kW, which is a multiple of the characteristics of previous analogues. It also takes 20-30 minutes to charge an electric car, depending on the battery. The new Russian-made equipment allows simultaneous charging of three vehicles and is suitable for all types of electric vehicles.
It was noted that as part of the federal project “Electric Car and Hydrogen Car”, new electric charging stations were installed and located at the gas station in Priozersk (Leningradskoe shosse, 84) and at two gas stations in the village of Sinyavino. “Mirror” on 46 km of the Kola highway and Murmansk highway.
