GreenWay Launches Several New Ultra-Fast Charging Hubs. First Charging at 400 kW Stations Free of Charge
GreenWay has completed the Expand-E project, opening 35 ultra-fast charging hubs in Poland in recent weeks, equipped with 253 new DC charging points with capacities of up to 400 kW. The operator also launched 26 DC points with capacities of up to 200 kW at 13 new locations. To encourage drivers to experience ultra-fast charging in this new format, GreenWay is introducing a special promotion: from December 10 to January 11, the first charging session at hubs equipped with 400 kW stations is completely free and without any kWh limit.
The Expand-E project was announced in 2022 as an initiative of an international consortium of charging network operators. It aimed to build ultra-fast charging hubs across the area from the Baltic Sea to the Mediterranean and from the Black Sea to the Atlantic Ocean, filling gaps in the TEN-T road network. The project was funded by the European Commission. Today, this infrastructure is already available, and GreenWay is offering its newest—and most powerful—chargers to customers free of charge for one month.
253 DC Points in 35 Ultra-Fast Charging Hubs
The construction of the new infrastructure took three years. During this time, GreenWay built 35 multi-station hubs equipped with 98 Alpitronic chargers with 400 kW capacity (196 charging points) and 41 Delta chargers with capacities from 150 to 400 kW (57 points). The vast majority of hubs are connected directly to the medium-voltage grid, which required GreenWay to build its own transformer stations. This solution allows for future expansion of these connections. As part of the project, 26 DC points with capacities of up to 200 kW were also established at 13 new locations.
“Our goal is to make traveling by electric car as easy and stress-free as possible. Multi-station hubs are a big step in this direction. A driver visiting these hubs can count on finding an available and functional fast-charging point, as several or even a dozen stations, along with stable medium-voltage grid supply, realistically guarantee this. Availability and reliability are key values we focus on when building our entire infrastructure,” emphasizes Rafał Czyżewski, CEO of GreenWay.
Not Just for Passenger Cars
As part of the Expand-E project, GreenWay also launched the first locations in Poland adapted for charging electric trucks. e-HDV stations are equipped not only with appropriate power (400 kW) but also with maneuvering infrastructure that facilitates convenient and safe entry for large vehicles. Hubs prepared to serve electric trucks were built at BP stations in Kąty Wrocławskie, the Brzeg–Młodoszowice junction, and Świnoujście.
A Leap in the Development of the Polish Network
GreenWay is the largest public charging infrastructure operator in Poland, managing a network of 1,300 own and 500 partner charging points (a total of 2,500 nationwide). The company already serves over 160,000 customers, who have completed 3.8 million charging sessions, consuming more than 80 GWh of energy and covering a total of 390 million kilometers. This has avoided emissions of over 50,000 tons of CO₂.
Free Charging at 400 kW Stations
To help drivers get acquainted with the new hubs, GreenWay is introducing a special promotion. The first charging session at 400 kW stations is completely free, with no kWh limit. The offer is valid from December 10 to January 11 and is available to both existing and new customers. A list of locations included in the promotion can be found at https://greenwaypolska.pl/, and 400 kW hubs are easily accessible in the GreenWay app via the 350 kW+ filter.
ABOUT THE EXPAND-E PROJECT
Expand-E is a European project for building high-power infrastructure in TEN-T corridors, implemented by the Ionity, GreenWay, Renovatio, Fortisis, and K-AUTO consortium. In total, 1,500 DC charging points have been built across Europe as part of the project, including 356 in the GreenWay network in Poland and Slovakia. Project funding comes from the Connecting Europe Facility (CEF) program.
