Orlen Deutschland rolls out 160 ultra-fast charging stations at supermarkets by 2026
Orlen Deutschland is expanding its fast-charging network for electric vehicles. The company has partnered with famila and Markant supermarkets to install up to 160 new high-speed charging points. These stations will be rolled out across up to 26 locations by the end of 2026.
The charging stations will offer capacities of up to 400 kW, enabling rapid recharging for drivers. Designed for high throughput, they will serve multiple users efficiently. Customers will also benefit from 24/7 access, allowing them to charge while shopping.
Supermarkets were chosen for their spacious parking areas and steady customer flow, making them practical locations for electric vehicle owners. Installation will take place in phases, with full completion targeted for late 2026.
The project is part of a strategic partnership with Bela, reinforcing Orlen Deutschland's commitment to electric mobility. By expanding into urban and suburban areas, the company aims to make charging more convenient for everyday use.
As of March 6, 2026, none of the planned 160 stations at famila and Markant sites in northern Germany are yet operational. All sources confirm the network remains on schedule for completion by year-end.
Once fully installed, the new charging points will support faster adoption of electric vehicles. Drivers in northern Germany will gain easier access to high-speed charging at familiar retail locations. The initiative marks a significant step in Orlen Deutschland's push for wider electric mobility infrastructure.
