Italy-based charging system manufacturer Alpitronic participated in the official opening ceremony of the very first megawatt charging station located at the Brenner motorway, located near Bolzano, close to the Austrian borders. Indeed, Autostrada del Brennero S.p.A. / Brennerautobahn AG, this is the name of the company which manages the motorway, is advancing high-power charging infrastructure along one of Europe’s key freight corridors – a critical step toward reducing emissions in heavy-duty transport.

“We’re especially proud that this first installation stands in Bolzano – our hometown. Just minutes from our headquarters, this site represents more than a technical milestone. It’s a symbol of progress, rooted in the place where our vision began”, stated Alpitronic in a message posted on LinkedIn.
