Among the 26 projects that were selected to benefit from grants from the EU, there are also two projects from Romania: one for which the coordinator is OMV Petrom Marketing SRL, which aims to place 408 charging points along the corridors of the Network trans-European transport network (TEN-T) from Romania, Hungary, and Slovakia and which will benefit from EU funding in the amount of €15.18 million; and the second for which the coordinator is KMG ROMPETROL, which proposes to install 24 charging points, distributed in 12 locations located along the corridors of the Trans-European Transport Network (TEN-T) in Romania, and which will benefit from funding from the EU in the amount of €1.08 million.
“Funding applications under the Alternative Fuels Facility continue to grow, illustrating the commitment of the transportation industry to transition to sustainable solutions. Our investment of €189 million will translate into the construction of approximately 2,000 charging points and approximately 63 hydrogen fueling stations”, says the European Commissioner for Transport, Adina Vălean.
