Skoogs Bränsle, together with Zpark Energy Systems, has established a fast-charging station for heavy-duty vehicles in Öjebyn, near Piteå, Sweden. With a charging capacity of 400 kW and integrated battery storage, the station enables fast charging even during periods of high demand on the electricity grid.
Fast charging with integrated battery storage
Located at Spikvägen 11 in Öjebyn, the charging station is based on Zpark’s Quick & Buffer solutions, combining fast charging with integrated battery storage. The project demonstrates how charging infrastructure for heavy-duty vehicles can be developed to meet the transport sector’s growing demand for electrification.
Technology tested with heavy-duty vehicles
During the inauguration in November 2023, the charging station was tested with electric trucks from manufacturers including Scania and Volvo. The demonstration showed how the technology can be used for fast charging of heavy-duty vehicles.
The inauguration brought together representatives from the transport industry, local businesses and municipalities, including Patrik Lundström, Municipal Commissioner of Piteå, and Nina Waara, Municipal Commissioner of Haparanda.
“We are overwhelmed by the positive reception and the success of the inauguration. It confirms that Norrbotten is ready for these technological advances,” says Andreas Lundqvist, then Head of Sales at Zpark Energy Systems.
A partnership for the future of transport
The collaboration between Skoogs Bränsle and Zpark Energy Systems has resulted in a charging station for heavy-duty vehicles in Öjebyn. The station demonstrates how charging infrastructure for heavy-duty vehicles can be developed.
“The inauguration was a great success, and we are proud to have been part of this project. It is exciting to see how this charging station will impact the local community in the future,” says Roland Skoog, owner of Skoogs Bränsle.
