• PPC blue Romania customers will be able to charge the electric car for free with green energy, produced by PPC Renewables Romania, using the PPC blue Power BOX
• The new solution is located on DN5 / E70 in the vicinity of Uzunu, being powered directly from the photovoltaic park of PPC Renewables Romania
• PPC blue Power BOX is an innovative charging solution with a built-in energy storage system

 The PPC group of companies in Romania announces the launch of the first charging solution in the PPC blue network that works 100% with renewable energy directly from a photovoltaic park and is available free of charge to all electric vehicle users.

This marks an important step in the company’s commitment to sustainable mobility and technological innovation in the field of green energy. PPC blue Power Box is an innovative charging solution, with a built-in energy storage system, while the green energy comes from PPC Renewables Romania’s photovoltaic park in Călugăreni.

The new fast charging station, equipped with an integrated storage system, has a charging power of 150 kW and can serve two electric vehicles simultaneously. Customers can find the Power BOX in Giurgiu County, on DN5 / E70, in the vicinity of Uzunu, on the direction of travel to Giurgiu, the exact coordinates being available here.

The energy used comes exclusively from renewable sources, being supplied by the PPC Renewables Romania photovoltaic park. The storage system has a capacity of 250 kWh. Thus, the infrastructure offers not only an environmentally friendly solution, but also an efficient one, ready to meet the mobility needs of users 24/7.

“This project is an example of how technology, sustainability and accessibility can be combined in an innovative way, with direct benefits for users. Electric mobility is the link between production, storage and the consumer. We are glad to be together with our colleagues from PPC Renewables on this project and that we can offer a green, efficient and free solution, at a time when the transition to electric mobility needs courageous initiatives. We are already exploring the extension of this model to other areas in Romania, as part of our vision to build a charging network in harmony with the environment and that meets the needs of the future,” said Andreea-Dana Popescu, director of PPC Blue Romania.

“As a producer of electricity from renewable sources, our mission is to provide customers with clean and sustainable energy. The Power Box is an innovative way to integrate the entire chain, from the production of photovoltaic energy to its use by electric car users. The technological advance brings these benefits that we are glad to be able to make, together with our colleagues from PPC blue, available to those who have chosen electric mobility”, said Adrian Dugulan, General Manager of PPC Renewables Romania.

The Power BOX is integrated into the PPC blue app, where users can view its location. PPC blue customers can charge their vehicle free of charge with green energy in the Plug & Charge system, connect the cable and the charging starts automatically.

This pilot project is just the beginning of a new strategic direction for PPC blue, which continues to invest in modern and sustainable infrastructure to support the development of electric mobility in Romania.

The solution chosen by PPC Blue Romania is provided by Allspark Energy and contains a 250kWh battery storage system and a 150 kW ultra-fast station.

The PPC blue app can be downloaded from the AppStore or Google Play. This allows you to view the available charging stations and choose the charging services that suit your needs (subscriptions or Charge & Pay). Through the application, users can organize their trips and use both PPC blue charging stations in Romania and Greece. In fact, PPC Blue Romania is the first company in the country to offer customers subscriptions for charging with units included (1 unit = 1 kWh), also offering free towing service. Depending on the level of consumption, there are three options: PPC blueLite (60 charging units included), PPC bluePlus (120 charging units included) and PPC blueMax (200 charging units included).  Customers can upload using the mobile app or an RFID card associated with the active profile.

In Romania, PPC blue operates over 750 charging points in all counties of the country, with a total installed capacity of over 21 MW, and offers integrated electric mobility solutions to residential customers, companies and public institutions across the country.

In 2024, drivers who charged their electric cars at PPC blue stations traveled a total of 10,500,000 km, the equivalent of 262 laps around the Earth, registering an average of 0.20 kWh per km. Following the charging sessions, they contributed to reducing carbon dioxide emissions by more than 1,700 tonnes/year.

Drivers benefit from a technical assistance service with support offered by a dedicated team, available 24/7, at 0800 801 158.

PPC blue installs charging infrastructure in Romania in shopping centers, supermarkets, restaurants and hotels that want to attract electric car users, as well as in public spaces made available by municipalities interested in improving air quality by encouraging electric mobility.

PPC blue Romania is part of the PPC Group, with a tradition of over 70 years in Greece, a leader in the field of energy in South-Eastern Europe, which has made a commitment to sustainable development and environmental protection by promoting clean energy sources. E-mobility plays a central role in this vision for the future. DEI blue, the company dedicated to electric mobility launched by PPC in 2021 in Greece, has already made a name for itself through e-mobility services provided to individuals, companies and public administration throughout Greece. The objective of becoming the leading player in the new electric mobility market in the region, by making significant investments for the development, management and operation of the most extensive electric car charging network and by providing innovative services, describes PPC’s ambitious plan.

PPC Group is developing rapidly its RES portfolio in Greece, Romania, Italy and Bulgaria having increased its RES installed capacity from 4.7 GW at the first half of 2024 to 6.3 GW at the end of June 2025. PPC Group’s goal is to reach a RES installed capacity of 11.8 GW by 2027. Currently, new RES projects of 3.7 GW are in an Under Construction or Ready to Build stage.
