Stockholm Parkering, parking operator in the Swedish capital, has already installed around 5,000 charging points for electric cars. Now Stockholm Parkering also wants to support other companies in the city in setting up charging points and has triggered Sweden’s largest procurement of chargers.
The EU-wide tender covers 10,000 chargers over a period of four years. The tender is only for the purchase of the charging technology, not the installation. The chargers are not only intended for Stockholm Parkering but also for other parking operators in the City of Stockholm, which are the companies Stockholmshem, Svenska Bostäder, Familjebostäder and Skolfastigheter i Stockholm (SISAB).
Stockholm Parkering already makes 5,000 charging points for electric cars available to is customers. This corresponds to half of the parking spaces the company currently owns. In this context, we recently reported on an order for CTEK for more than 1,000 charging points. Now Stockholm Parkering is aiming to electrify 100% of its parking spaces, and in addition, to also support other companies in the city with the expansion of charging points. Questions from interested parties in the tender will be accepted until 15 August. Bids must be submitted by 30 August 2022.
“The City of Stockholm has high ambitions for charging infrastructure. Already by the end of next year, between 20 and 30 per cent of the city’s surface car parks and garages will be equipped with charging facilities,” says Christian Rockberger, CEO of Stockholm Parkering. “That Stockholm Parkering, as a leading provider of charging infrastructure, can now also contribute to the city’s lofty goals is both an honour and a challenge.”
