The CEO of Volkswagen AG, Dr. Herbert Diess, congratulated the city of Wolfsburg on its 80th anniversary and gave it a truly electrifying gift to celebrate the occasion.
Dr. Herbert Diess presented the city with 12 mobile charging stations and a long-term investment of in Wolfsburg's electronic charging infrastructure that will be expanded step by step in accordance to the city's needs - for a total amount of €10 million ($15,915,094).
Residents of the city can already see one of the charging stations at Volkswagen's booth set up as part of the festival being held on Porsche Street.
The mobile charging stations were developed by Volkswagen's Components Division. They will serve as an ideal bridging technology that can support the ramp-up of electromobility.
The fast-charging stations work independently of the power grid and can be set up flexibly to meet particular needs. They employ the principle of a powerbank for e-vehicles. The charging stations will be free to use for all Wolfsburg residents during its pilot stage.
A working group for charging infrastructure set up by the city of Wolfsburg and Volkswagen under the umbrella of #WolfsburgDigital is currently putting the final touches on a complete concept and a milestone plan that will show when and where the fast-charging infrastructure will be set up in the city. The specific and visible steps are scheduled to start in 2019. The city of Wolfsburg and Volkswagen are working jointly to turn Wolfsburg into a 'smart city' and a role model for other cities.
