'Fits into strategy for Germany'

Charging station operator Electra acquires top location in Germany: ‘More to come’

Electra wil in Duitsland inzetten op de grote transportassen. Electra, 2025

With Wertheim, along the A3 motorway near Frankfurt, Electra says it has taken over one of Germany’s busiest charging sites. The French charging player will operate a charging hub there together with HomE of Mobility GmbH.

At the Wertheim service site, charging station operator Electra plans to install nine fast chargers, together accounting for 16 charging points. “And that should quickly become 32,” the company informs. In cooperation with player HomE of Mobility GmbH, the original operator of the charging park, there should be a fully equipped hub with a quality restaurant, a lounge area for distance work and space for seminars or events.

The approach fits in with Electra’s strategy for Germany, where the company wants to install premium fast chargers along major transport corridors and near major cities. The A3 location is one of the most popular charging points for electric car drivers in Germany.

As part of the acquisition, Electra is integrating nine existing fast-charging stations with a maximum charging capacity of up to 300 kW. Two of these have a single connection and continuously deliver full power regardless of other charging processes at the site. The offering is complemented by a drive-through solution for vehicles with trailers and commercial vehicles.

“Wertheim is one of those places where you notice what electromobility really feels like: fast, comfortable and thoughtful. That is exactly what we strive for at Electra,” says Paul Tonini, country manager Germany at Electra.

The originally French charging station operator is making inroads in Europe. Earlier this year, the company proclaimed it wanted 2,200 charging stations in Europe by 2030 . In the Netherlands, Electra has been operating since 2024.
