PortAventura World to have 150 charging points for electric cars
31 August, 2022PortAventura World and Endesa X Way have joined forces to provide the resort and leisure park with the largest private installation of charging points for electric vehicles in Spain, reinforcing its commitment to sustainable mobility in line with its environmental commitments.
It will have a total of 150 electric charging stations at seven locations in the park (the 110 car park, the north car park, the employee car park, Hotel PortAventura, Hotel Gold River, Hotel El Paso and Hotel Caribe), which will be available free of charge to both employees and customers.
This is the largest private charging hub network in Spain and one of the largest facilities of its kind in Europe within a resort. The project has already begun and will be completed over the next few months in order to finish the installation of all the charging points in September of this year.
The 150 chargers will be available for use by the company's own fleet of vehicles, its customers and guests, employees and suppliers. In this way, all users of electric vehicles visiting the park will be guaranteed the recharging of their electric car at all times and in different locations of the resort.
With the implementation of this electric charging facility, PortAventura World is ahead of the Spanish legislation that will come into force in January 2023 and which will require public car parks to have a minimum of one electric charging parking space for every 40 non-electric parking spaces.
