More than 5,000 additional charging points for electric vehicles are to be constructed worldwide by 2030. These include 3,000 charging points at European locations alone. This measure is part of Schaeffler’s sustainability program.
The locations Herzogenaurach and Schweinfurt are acting as pilot projects for the technology and the operator model. Following the successful completion of the test phase, the project will be gradually rolled out in all other regions of the Schaeffler Group.
“Schaeffler stands for sustainability and is committed to e-mobility. We are pursuing the higher-level objective of reducing our CO2 emissions on a continuous basis. This includes the carbon footprint for individual mobility. Through this project, we will increase Schaeffler’s attractiveness as a sustainable employer and further motivate our workforce to act in an environmentally conscious manner”, said Andreas Schick, Chief Operating Officer of Schaeffler AG.
As part of the redevelopment of a parking lot in Herzogenaurach, 40 charging points have been installed, which are initially available for employees without charge. These charging stations are the standard model used at all Schaeffler locations. They provide up to 22 kilowatts of charging capacity per station and are to be operated and maintained by an external partner in the future.
The expansion plan for the Herzogenaurach location allows for the construction of a further 245 charging points for employees, company cars, and visitors in 2025. In Schweinfurt, the electrical infrastructure will first be expanded to allow the construction of a further 122 charging points.
