Expansion of Charging Network Persists in Bergisch Gladbach

Bergisch Gladbach, a city in North Rhine-Westphalia, is leading the way in the expansion of public charging infrastructure for electric vehicles. This initiative involves both local electrical firms such as Elkler Elektrotechnik and national companies like RheinEnergie AG, through its subsidiary TankE GmbH.

RheinEnergie has been expanding the public charging infrastructure continuously in the Cologne region, including Bergisch Gladbach, since 2010. Private operators such as BELKAW, Wirelane, Hochtief Ladepartner, E-Hub Solutions, and Qwello Germany are also driving this commercial expansion.

Currently, around 80 public charging points at charging stations are operational throughout the city. The city administration provides the necessary urban traffic and parking areas for public charging infrastructure. An up-to-date overview of these charging points can be found on the city's website.

Future plans involve the expansion of public fast-charging infrastructure, with a focus on inner-city residential areas where private parking and charging options are often scarce. The number of public charging points is expected to double in the coming weeks.

The city, in cooperation with the Rheinisch Bergisch district and the city of Leverkusen, plans to intensify the development of charging infrastructure. The administration is in contact with companies awarded contracts by the federal government to realize two fast-charging sites in the city as part of the Germany network.

Mayor Frank Stein is pleased with the current development of public charging infrastructure in the city. The city of Bergisch Gladbach is taking a pioneering role in North Rhine-Westphalia through the consistent expansion of charging infrastructure. For installation services, residents can rely on local firms like Elkler Elektrotechnik.

For those interested in the current status of public charging points, the city's website provides an up-to-date overview. The city administration encourages residents to make the switch to electric vehicles, making the city a more sustainable and eco-friendly place to live.
