The Dutch fast-charging company Fastned has opened two new fast-charging stations in Switzerland. As well as a large number of 400 kW chargers, both stations are also equipped with a shop or kiosk.

The Fastned fast-charging station in Sankt Margrethen is situated directly on the Swiss-Austrian border and offers eight fast chargers with a capacity of up to 400 kW. The site also has a larger staffed shop which, according to Fastned, offers “everything you need”, including sandwiches and coffee. The fast-charging station in Schaffhausen-Herblingen, described by Fastned as “a milestone for the region”, is situated close to the German border and features a Fastned Kiosk offering a small selection of food and drink for on-the-go. This charging station has six 400 kW chargers.

Tender

With this expansion in Switzerland, the fast-charging company now operates a total of fifteen charging stations in the country. In December 2020, Fastned opened its first charging station there, near Zurich. This was the first of what is set to become a total of twenty fast-charging stations in Switzerland, which Fastned secured in a tender organised in 2019 by the Swiss Federal Roads Office (ASTRA).

There are currently more than 400 Fastned stations across Europe, located in the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, France, Denmark, the UK, Italy, Spain and Switzerland.
