Public Power Corporation secures €3.42 million EU grant for 106 fast chargers across Greece and Romania

Public Power Corporation (PPC) and PPC blue Romania have been awarded up to €3.42 million from the EU's Connecting Europe Facility to deploy 106 fast and ultra-fast charging points at 34 locations across Greece and Romania. The BlueRoute 4E project will install 98 chargers with a minimum 150 kW output for passenger vehicles and eight 350 kW ultra-fast chargers for heavy-duty vehicles, all within three kilometres of motorway exits along the TEN-T transport network. The stations will operate 24 hours a day and meet European interoperability and accessibility standards.
Why it matters: The grant demonstrates how EU infrastructure funding is channelling capital into cross-border charging corridors, creating procurement opportunities for equipment suppliers and construction firms working on TEN-T aligned projects. CPOs and contractors bidding on similar CEF-funded tenders can benchmark the €3.42 million allocation for 106 points and the technical specifications requiring 150 kW to 350 kW outputs.
