Located on Hohenstaufenblick 1, 73035 Göppingen, in the carpark of the vocational training centre and in the immediate vicinity of the B10, Pfalzwerke now provides convenient and barrier-free charging for electric vehicles at six fast-charging columns and 12 charging points, as well as other user-friendly services.
In September 2023, Pfalzwerke was awarded the contract from the Federal Ministry of Transport (BMV) for the Göppingen search area, among others, in other to construct a fast-charging park in Göppingen. Together with the city of Göppingen, a conveniently-located site was scouted that would be attractive to e-car drivers. The construction phase lasted from December 2024 until May 2025.
With the Deutschlandnetz, the BMV is creating an additional 9,000 fast-charging points at more than 1,000 locations in rural regions, cities and unmanaged motorway service stations. The aim is to provide nationwide, user-friendly fast-charging infrastructure.
City Manager for Construction Eva Noller: “The opening of the Deutschlandnetz charging park is a significant step regarding sustainable mobility in our region. Electric mobility plays a key role in the transport transition and contributes to making Göppingen both fit for the future and environmentally-friendly. Modern charging infrastructure allows us to create the necessary conditions to attract more people to climate-friendly mobility and increase the quality of life in our city.”
Florian Dommel, Head of E-Mobility at Pfalzwerke: “We are firmly convinced that electric mobility is a key building block of sustainable mobility. We are proud to be a part of the expansion of the Deutschlandnetz and to play our part in creating nationwide charging availability. Our common goal is to make electric mobility barrier-free, convenient and reliably accessible.”
Pfalzwerke is helping to implement the Deutschlandnetz with around 400 new charging points at 40 locations. The company already operates a nationwide network with more than 1,750 charging points at over 420 locations.
