E.ON Energie România installed, in the first 10 months of this year, over 100 charging points for electric cars, public and private, thus exceeding 550 units installed so far in Romania.

If before 2020 the company installed an average of between 20 and 30 charging points for electric cars per year, later the pace increased to over 200 last year, so about ten times more.

“We set out to play a leading role in the development of infrastructure and solutions for electric mobility in Romania and we are progressing rapidly. For example, our customers currently have access to over 2,000 charging points, through the E.ON Drive application, both ours and those of our partners, and at European level to over 500,000 charging points operated by E.ON Drive Infrastructure”, said Claudia Griech, General Manager of E.ON Energie Romania.

Over 32,000 charging sessions were recorded in the E.ON Drive application, in the first 10 months of this year, with over 560,000 kWh being charged, on average approx. 56,000 kWh per month. Compared to the same period in 2023, the number of charging sessions increased by 31% and the amount of energy by 71%.

E.ON Drive, the first turnkey solution dedicated to electric car owners, residential, business or municipal customers, was launched in 2018. Available on www.eondrive.ro, the E.ON Drive application brings lower prices compared to one-time payments, access to the station map and their status, favorite stations

issuance of RFID cards for start-stop charging and payment directly from the mobile application.

At the same time, the company rewards customers’ efforts to have a greener and more sustainable future, planting one tree for every 10 kWh supplied at E.ON Drive stations. Thus, as part of the annual planting campaigns, carried out starting with 2021, 96,000 saplings were planted.
