The new facility, scheduled for completion by the end of the year, marks a significant breakthrough in the charging experience, enabling up to 400 km of range in just 15 minutes
With capacity to charge 12 vehicles simultaneously and serve up to 300 vehicles per day, the station will deliver fast, convenient and accessible charging
Located next to Passeig de la Vall d’Hebron, at exit 4 of the Ronda de Dalt ring road, the hub will be powered by 100% renewable energy El nou equipament, previst per a finals d'any, suposarà un salt en l'experiència de recàrrega i permetrà assolir fins a 400 km d'autonomia en només 15 minuts
Endolla Barcelona is strengthening its commitment to advancing electromobility by opening the city’s first public ultra-fast charging hub. With this initiative, Barcelona’s electromobility network, managed by BSM, is expanding its offer to deliver a faster, more convenient and accessible charging experience, while supporting the transition towards more sustainable mobility.
Mayor Jaume Collboni underlined the importance of the new facility: ‘It’s a major step forward and a paradigm shift. Barcelona is maintaining and reinforcing its leadership in electric vehicle charging infrastructure This momentum also improves opportunities for industry throughout the city and metropolitan area, including the automotive plants in Zona Franca, as well as for the families who work in and depend on them.’
A charging experience in just 15 minutes
The hub will be located at 2 C/ Germans Desvalls, next to Passeig de la Vall d’Hebron, a strategic site with direct access to the Ronda de Dalt ring road and the city’s main entry and exit routes. This location is easy to reach for residents and also provides a practical option for drivers entering or leaving the city who need to top up their range.
The facility will be equipped with ultra-fast charging technology of up to 480 kW, enabling vehicles to achieve up to 400 km of range in just 15 minutes. This is a major step forward for the network, as it increases vehicle turnover and significantly reduces charging times. The new hub adopts a stop-and-go model, allowing users to continue their journey after a brief charging stop.
To ensure accessibility, the charging points will be simple and intuitive to use. As part of the city’s smart, connected mobility strategy, SMOU users can simply scan a QR code with their phone and connect the cable to begin charging. Other users will also be able to access the service by paying directly via a card machine.
A fully equipped space serving more than 300 vehicles per day
The hub will cover an area of around 900 m2 and will include 12 charging bays for passenger cars and last-mile delivery vehicles, with an estimated capacity of more than 300 vehicles per day.
Beyond the charging infrastructure itself, the facility has been designed as a comprehensive space prioritising user experience. While their vehicles are charging, users will have access to rest areas, workspaces and shaded zones, as well as Wi-Fi, vending machines and accessible toilets, among other amenities. The hub will also incorporate monitoring and information systems to ensure a convenient, safe and efficient experience.
The project, with an investment of €2,082,000, will begin construction this summer and is scheduled to open by the end of 2026.
A charging model powered by renewable energy
The new Endolla Barcelona hub adopts a renewable energy-based charging system, in line with the city’s sustainability goals. The facility incorporates a photovoltaic canopy and a battery storage system for more efficient energy management. This reduces reliance on the electricity grid and supports a more environmentally friendly energy model.
Endolla Barcelona currently operates 1,041 charging points across the city and records an average of 18,000 charging sessions per month.
A facility that reinforces Barcelona’s commitment to sustainable mobility
The new hub forms part of Endolla Barcelona’s network expansion strategy, supporting the roll-out of a more accessible and evenly distributed public network. Looking ahead, the facility addresses the growing need for more powerful infrastructure capable of serving multiple vehicles simultaneously, in line with the demands of current and future mobility. It offers a forward-looking, sustainable and digital solution that prioritises user experience, while preparing the city to meet increasingly demanding charging needs.
A successful transition to zero-emission mobility requires a public service that guarantees proximity, accessibility and availability for electric vehicle users. The new Endolla Barcelona hub is designed to support this shift and reinforce the city’s commitment to more environmentally friendly mobility.
