Allego, a leading pan-European public electric vehicle fast and ultra-fast charging network, and Burger King France, announced the establishment of a long-term partnership to proliferate electric vehicle (EV) charging in France.
Following a tender, Allego has been chosen as the partner of choice to enable the installation of ultra-fast charging stations at existing and future Burger King France locations over the next three years; the deployment of charging stations will also depend on the agreement of the various landowners.
The first sites are expected to be operational by Q3 2024 and for easy recognition for the drivers, the chargers will be fitted with both Allego and Burger King branding.
Mathieu Bonnet, Chief Executive Officer of Allego, states, “To meet the demand of the ever growing EV market in Europe, we must swiftly roll out high power chargers in locations that are most convenient for drivers.”
“This sort of growth cannot be achieved alone, so we must work with like-minded partners to support the considerable change brought by e-mobility. Through this partnership, we can make charging more accessible and enjoyable so drivers can travel with ever greater ease,” he adds.
This new partnership is expected to be a significant addition to Allego’s network in France where it currently operates a network of 190 ultra-fast charging locations.
The Company is also rolling out a network of 4,000 charging points across 400 Carrefour hypermarket locations, Pathé cinemas, Klepierre shopping center and more throughout the country, which positions Allego to be one of the largest destination charging providers across the French market.
“Allego is reinforcing its position as one of the leading ultra-fast charging networks in France,” says Bonnet.
