Fastned expands into Spain, accelerating the roll-out of fast-charging infrastructure

Fastned expands into Spain after signing a contract for the construction and deployment of its first fast charging station in the country.

The yellow canopies will first arrive in Spain in Casarrubuelos, a municipality of Madrid, located on the busy A42 motorway that connects Madrid with Toledo.

The station has 8 chargers, each with power of up to 400kW. Additionally, Fastned has another 6 stations coming up in Spain, location TBD.

In Spain, the majority of chargers are located in the center of large cities. To support the transition to e-mobility and make more drivers switch to electric cars, a strong network of fast charging infrastructure in the outskirts of cities and along motorways is needed.
