Milence has recently inaugurated its second charging hub in the Netherlands. Located at Business Park Hessenpoort in Zwolle. Strategically located near the A28 and A50 highways, the Zwolle hub offers direct connectivity to key Dutch cities such as Amsterdam, Utrecht, and Groningen, as well as important German destinations including Münster, Dortmund, and the Ruhr industrial region. The very first charging hub inaugurated by Milence was right in the Netherlands, in Venlo.

As usual, Milence foresess two different phases for its charging hubs. The first one includes 4 Combined Charging System (CCS) chargers, powering 8 charging bays, as well as 1 Megawatt Charging System (MCS), designed to meet the needs of next-generation electric trucks, powering 1 bay. Additionally, driver-centric amenities such as toilets, showers, a lounge, vending machines, and WiFi have been installed.

Future development phases will bring additional chargers and greater capacity to accommodate growing demand. The hub is secured with fencing, gated entry, and camera surveillance. In Zwolle, partnerships with leading e-Mobility Service Providers (eMSPs) enable drivers to pay using a variety of charging cards. Direct payment options via payment terminal or using the Milence Card are also available. The default charging tariff for both CCS and MCS is €0,399 per kWh (excluding VAT). 

“Today’s opening reflects our commitment to building the infrastructure needed for a fossil-free future in Europe,” said Anja van Niersen, CEO of Milence. “By launching the first Megawatt Charging System in the Netherlands, we’re accelerating the adoption of electric trucks and enabling smarter and more sustainable logistics.”
