Goals for 2024? Obviously installation of new stations will continue on the territory of Italy. The offer will increase and speakers with power up to 400 kW. In addition, stations will also be installed to provide fast charging where electrical infrastructure is insufficient. equipped with a storage system.
Then multi-column sites will be created, equipped with systems that can simplify energy supply. There will also be increased use of shelters equipped with photovoltaic panels make the charging process more comfortable, contributing to the production of renewable energy. The number of mobile service providers connected to the Ewiva network will also be expanded (today there are about 70).
