Fastned

Guess what we’re building 👀

Time flies when you’re charging fast ⚡

We just released our half-year report, and over the last 6 months, we have been busy securing a record-high 79 new locations, increasing our revenue growth, and welcoming even more electric drivers to our charging canopies 🤝

The push towards electric mobility is in full swing, and we are prepared for the new wave of EV drivers. At over 500 secured locations, we are fully on track to hit our goal of 1,000 stations by 2030 and welcome even more electric travellers across Europe 🚗🔌

As we head to the end of 2024, the future looks electric! Check out our complete H1 report below ⬇️

And, as always…Happy Charging 💛

Need some extra legroom for your caravan? 🚌

We just added a new feature on our app that lets you easily find our caravan-approved fast charging stations 🤳

Our caravan filter will show you the length, width, and height of our charging canopies so you can pull in & charge with plenty of space. We wanted to make sure you not only can plan your electric journey, but enjoy every pit stop on your road trip 🔌

If you haven’t already, download the Fastned app and try out our map, our caravan filter, and more EV goodies. Even if you don’t need it, take a look at our new filter - maybe this is your sign to buy your first electric caravan 👀

Anyone want a free charge session 👀

To help celebrate our friends at Chargemap while they top up at our French Fastned stations, we are giving away 2 free charging sessions for you and your electric car companion 🚗🔌

The best part: winning is just as easy as fast charging 🤝

All you need to do is follow us and Chargemap, tag your EV road trip partner, and give us one of your go-to road trip songs!

It can be your guilty pleasure song, your die-hard karaoke song, or your “I don’t know the lyrics but I love the vibe” song - just tag your friend and tell us what you are both blasting through the speakers 🔊

We will announce the winners next week, so keep an eye out for a yellow canopy popping up in your DMs 💛

Don’t worry if you don't win the first time, you can have another chance later this week 😏

Fastned started in 2012 and now, with over 300 stations across 7 countries, they're known for their speedy and efficient chargers - plus their funky, yellow charge points can't be missed! 🔌💛
To help us understand more about their future plans, we decided to sit down with Lieke Duijmelings for Fastned, to get the inside scoop. 🕵️
