The number of fast charging stations for electric cars is set to grow rapidly this year. The largest charging networks are planning to open new stations, while the S-Group rolls out its own network at ABC locations.
Its first new stations, in Helsinki's Pukinmäki and Itäkeskus neighbourhoods will be tested soon, while others are already located on motorways. Rapid charging – which can typically restore a car battery to 80 percent capacity within as little as half an hour – is crucial for the feasibility of long-distance travel with electric cars and trucks.
