The Second Audi Charging Hub Opened In Zürich, Switzerland via insideevs.com
Audi has opened a new charging hub in Zürich, Switzerland, the second after the pilot station in Nürnberg, Germany inaugurated late last year. The Audi charging hub Zürich opened earlier this month in the city's vibrant banking district of Oerlikon, directly in front of the parking garage at Messe Zürich .
The second Audi charging hub in the world offers four covered high-power charging points, each with an output of 320 kW. The site's storage capacity amounts to 1.05 MWh—comparable to the storage capacity of 11The hub also uses 100-percent renewable energy, while a photovoltaic system on the roof over the so-called charging cubes supplies additional green energy.
Since the batteries serve as buffer storage, the charging hub requires no elaborate, expensive infrastructure with a high-voltage grid and transformers, requiring only minor power demands from the local power grid. As a result, it offers a sustainable quick-charging infrastructure where the local power grid would prove insufficient."The Audi charging hub pilot project in Nuremberg proved that our unique concept has its finger on the pulse at all times.
Audi customers can use the myAudi app to book an individual charging slot in advance for 45 minutes at no extra cost. Reservations are available for the first 15 minutes, after which they'll be canceled. Mind you, thecharging hub is not restricted to owners of Audi vehicles; it can be used by all brands of EVs equipped with a CCS charging port.
In addition to charging points, the Zürich hub features two large 55-inch screens that provide essential information and tips about maximizing battery charge. Unlike the Nürnberg site, the one in Zürich does not feature a lounge because the hub's immediate vicinity offers a wide range of services.More stories on Audi EV charging
