New fast-charging stations for better electromobility in western Switzerland
Procimmo and Electra want to jointly expand the charging infrastructure in western Switzerland. This will begin with two fast-charging stations at the Aubonne outlet and the Gland Backstage pub.
The Europe-wide fast charging station specialist Electra and the property asset manager Procimmo from Renens are working together to expand the charging infrastructure in French-speaking Switzerland. The two companies have started a corresponding collaboration, Electra announced in a press release. As a first step, two fast-charging stations will be installed in Aubonne VD and Gland VD.
The fast-charging station in the Outlet Aubonne shopping centre is being implemented by the Procimmo Real Estate SICAV – Industrial fund. The Procimmo Real Estate SICAV – Commercial PK fund is responsible for the fast-charging station at the Gland BackStage Pub in Gland. The first two charging points have been in operation since December 2024, with two more to follow this quarter.
Electra, based in Paris, is represented in Switzerland by Electra Charging Switzerland AG in Zurich. Together with Procimmo, “we can network Western Switzerland even better and thus upgrade important and central locations with charging stations”, says Alessandro Inderbitzin, General Manager Electra Switzerland & Austria, in the press release. Procimmo CEO Arno Kneubühler, for his part, sees the collaboration with the specialist for fast-charging stations “as a significant step towards expanding and complementing our portfolio with Electra’s strong services”. With their partnership, the two companies want to respond to the increasing demand for fast-charging stations in Switzerland. For Procimmo, the commitment also represents a contribution to an electrified Switzerland.
