Emonet, a brand of the Vogtland-based Markus Hörning GmbH, has announced its intention to build electric car charging systems, especially in residential areas with a high density of rental properties, business parks and city centres with lots of office space. To this end, the initiators have already acquired four properties in Saxony.
The first charging stations are due to go online in these four areas in summer. Unfortunately, Emonet does not provide any information on the size or charging capacity of the systems. However, a rendering of the initiators provides information: This shows a parking lot with several double charging stations. These are charging parks. There is also something to say about the planned type of financing: The Saxons want to set up a crowdfunding campaign through which investors can also participate in the expansion.
The background to the initiative is that 57% of Germans live in rental apartments and are therefore dependent on their landlords or the public charging infrastructure for charging electric cars. Therefore, a change will only occur if there is a charge offer for you right on your doorstep.
