Joint venture Milence has recently opened its ninth charging hub in France, part of a growing network of 24 hubs now operational across Europe. These hubs are positioned along the North Sea – Rhine – Mediterranean; Atlantic; and Mediterranean corridors of the TEN-T network, ensuring optimal accessibility for long-haul freight.

In particular, the new hub is strategically located in Dunkirk, on the North Sea–Rhine–Mediterranean corridor of the Trans-European Transport Network (TEN-T). Additionally, the new hub under development near Saint-Witz, located just outside the French capital and next to the A1 motorway, will offer ideal connectivity between Paris, northern France, and Belgium – a strategic point for logistics operators on the move. Each hub comprises between four and eight bays equipped with fast chargers delivering up to 400 kW, ensuring a smooth and reliable experience accessible to all electric trucks, regardless of brand.

In France, Milence cooperates with NGE

Milence works in close partnership with NGE, France’s fourth-largest independent construction and civil engineering group, for the development of its charging stations across the country. “We are extremely proud to be part of this pioneering initiative in France. Through the construction of these stations, we are actively contributing to the ecological transition while also supporting regional economic development and local appeal. Decarbonised mobility is a cornerstone of our growth strategy, and these infrastructures are a clear reflection of that ambition”, said Jean Bernadet, President of NGE.

“The accelerated rollout of our network in France represents a critical step in building a charging infrastructure designed to meet the demands of tomorrow’s transport. By connecting major European logistics hubs, we are actively supporting the shift to zero-emission road freight, driving sustainable and efficient logistics”, added Anja van Niersen, CEO of Milence.
