ON Power, a part of Reykjavik Energy, has signed a contract with ABB for the delivery and installation of 15 Terra multi-standard DC chargers at various points along Iceland’s main highway.
Today there are over 1400 electric vehicles on the road in Iceland, partly due to a state-financed incentive programme that supports the purchase of electric vehicles. The tender for fast chargers is part of the country’s campaign to promote and expand Iceland’s e-mobility strategy by increasing the availability of flexible and robust charging stations along central locations of the national highway across the entire country.
The specified fast charger can charge an electric vehicle in 15-30 minutes, featuring easy to read touch screen displays and graphic visualisation, together with low operational noise. All chargers can be combined with comprehensive solutions for user authorisation, payment and network connectivity.
