Amid mounting global apprehensions over climate change, Spain is witnessing a rapid surge in Electric Vehicle (EV) adoption, particularly in transportation hubs like airports. In response, Valencia Airport has joined forces with EVB, a subsidiary of Beny specializing in smart charging solutions, to introduce a cutting-edge charging infrastructure. The initiative features 80 AC EV chargers and 4 DC EV chargers strategically positioned across the airport premises, providing convenient charging options to travelers. This collaboration not only revitalizes the airport’s operations but also marks a significant step forward in promoting electric mobility in Spain.
Project Details:
Location: Valencia, Spain.
Products: The project incorporates 4 DC EV chargers (model BADC82-D) and 80 AC EV chargers (model BCPC-D2N-P), offering a versatile range of charging options to accommodate both rapid and slow energy replenishment needs.
Outcomes: The seamless installation, testing, and operation of the charging station have significantly elevated service standards at the airport. Chargers are strategically distributed across the parking lot, ensuring easy access for users and fostering environmentally conscious travel.
Valencia Airport Overview:
Situated in the bustling city of Valencia, the airport serves as a crucial international gateway, handling substantial passenger traffic and logistical operations. Recent data from Aena reveals impressive figures, with 9.95 million passenger movements, 82,000 aircraft operations, and 13.65 million tons of cargo throughput recorded in 2023. With the increasing popularity of EVs, there’s a growing demand for parking and charging facilities at the airport. To meet these evolving needs, airport management is proactively upgrading charging infrastructure to enhance user experience and accommodate shifting preferences.
Charging Needs:
Driven by factors like convenience, cost-effectiveness, and environmental concerns, more EV drivers are choosing to park and charge their vehicles at the airport. Parking durations typically fall into three categories:
