Companies partner to improve Europe’s charging infrastructure

Tyre manufacturer Bridgestone is joining forces with EVBox Group and TSG to install 3,500 charging ports across Bridgestone’s European retail and service network in the next five years. The project will begin in France and Italy before expanding into the UK, Germany, Poland, Spain, and other European countries.

The new charging network will consist of regular and fast charging stations installed at strategic locations accessible to all EV drivers, including private and fleet vehicles. EVBox fast charging stations will be installed on high-demand routes for drivers needing to get back on the road as quickly as possible. EVBox Group’s partner TSG will take a leading role in designing, installing and maintaining the EVBox charging infrastructure across Bridgestone’s European retail and service network.

Thanks to the partnership between Bridgestone and EVBox Group, EV drivers and fleets will get access to one of Europe’s largest charging networks through a single solution: a dedicated card or mobile app connected to EVBox charging management software. The charging network will include access to over 130,000 public charging ports. With EVBox charging management software, drivers and account holders can efficiently manage charging sessions, payments, and invoicing through one centralised platform.
