E.on Drive
Promotes electric vehicles safer and sustainable transport
Based on two basic modules, graft’s charging system for E.ON can cater to a wide variety of charging and parking situations — the smaller of the two modules can be combined to form XS or S stations. with a rectangular footprint of around 3.5 meters × 5 meters, it was developed for use in existing car parks and service areas. its clever geometry makes it possible to provide partially covered parking for one to two spaces. its self-supporting steel structure allows the modules to be extended linearly to create smaller drive-through variants with up to four charging points. such stations are also suitable for urban contexts, providing covered barrier-free parking in parallel or angled configurations.
