TotalEnergies has solidified its position as a leader in French motorway charging infrastructure, with a significant expansion of its high-power charging network. As of July 2025, TotalEnergies operates 1,800 high-power charging points (HPCPs) at 265 service stations across France. This extensive network is powered by 100%-renewable electricity, aligning with the company's commitment to sustainability.The strategic placement of these HPCPs allows for rapid charging, with up to 100km of range added in just six minutes and an 80% recharge completed in 20 minutes, depending on the vehicle model. This technology significantly reduces wait times and enhances the convenience of long-distance electric vehicle (EV) travel.
TotalEnergies' dominance in the French motorway charging market is reflected in its 23% share of the total motorway charging points in France. This achievement is a result of the company's extensive fuel station network and strategic focus on high-visibility locations and full-area coverage.
The growth of TotalEnergies' motorway charging network is part of a broader trend in France, where the country has seen a 27% increase in its public charging network over the past year. This growth is driven by strong national policy frameworks and rising consumer demand for EVs. As of May 2025, France boasts over 169,000 publicly accessible charging points, making it one of the most developed and accessible networks across the EU [1].
The expansion of TotalEnergies' charging network is not only beneficial for EV drivers but also contributes to France's broader goals of electrifying mobility and reducing carbon emissions. The company's focus on renewable energy sources further underscores its commitment to sustainable transportation solutions.
