TotalEnergies SE and SSE plc announced on Tuesday that they agreed to create a joint venture dubbed Source, which will focus on bringing electric vehicle (EV) chargers to the United Kingdom and Ireland.
Spurce is set to deploy up to 3,000 high power charge points in both countries within the next five years. The charging points will be grouped in 300 EV hubs in "prime locations in and around urban areas" and will be powered by enewable energy provided by the two companies.
"TotalEnergies is proud to contribute to the development of electric mobility to decarbonize transportation in the UK and Ireland. This is a great opportunity to extend our network in Europe and stake out a key position as a reference high-power charging player," stated Mathieu Soulas, TotalEnergies' senior vice president of New Mobilities.
