France is energetically tackling the energy transition. Last December, 115 publicly accessible charging stations were opened in the country where electric cars can fast charge.

This is according to data from France’s Valiuz. Portuguese fast-charging company Powerdot was the most active in France in December, adding 28 fast-charging stations. French Electra and Dutch Allego both opened 15 fast-charging locations in the same month. Dutch Fastned expanded its number of charging stations by four in France last December. Charging station providers Izivia and Autres were also active in December, opening 13 and six publicly accessible fast-charging stations respectively. R3 in turn opened eight fast-charging stations in France in December.

According to Valiuz, the large number of fast-charging station openings in France in December is probably due to contractual obligations to deliver new fast-charging stations before the end of the year.
