🚘Forget everything you know about petrol stations – in 2025, the city of Amsterdam will reimagine filling stations as we know them. ⚡Introducing the ‘’mobility hub’’ – which will resemble a traditional filling station but will be exclusively for electric vehicles. It’ll offer fast chargers, electric shared vehicles, onsite catering and co-working spaces while you wait for your vehicle to charge. 🌿With Amsterdam’s plans to make the ring road emission-free by 2030 – it’s vital that Amsterdam expands the number of available charging locations allowing Amsterdam residents to have accessible charging points throughout the city and on the move. 1️⃣ The first mobility hub named E-lympic will be built early next year in Amsterdam Zuid. It will act as a beta tester for AMS Institute and the municipality, to see how beneficial mobility hubs are, as well as what effects they have on traffic and energy consumption. 👉Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/d5ur7fXc #AmsterdamMobility #FillingStationsOfTheFuture #GreenMobility #ElectricAmsterdam
