TotalEnergies (NYSE:TTE) on Wednesday disclosed a joint investment platform with Tikehau Capital aimed at expanding electric vehicle charging infrastructure in urban public areas across Belgium and the Netherlands.
The partnership will assist municipalities in the EV transition while strengthening TotalEnergies’ role as a key public charging provider in the Benelux region.
The platform, owned by both companies, aims to advance public charging projects already under construction or operation in key Belgian and Dutch cities and to participate in new tenders expanding urban EV charging infrastructure in both countries.
TotalEnergies will provide its expertise to develop, operate, and maintain charging stations powered entirely by certified renewable energy, while leveraging Tikehau Capital’s investment and risk-sharing to strengthen its electric mobility business model.
Currently, TotalEnergies operates over 9,500 charge points in Belgium, making it the market leader, and 18,000 in the Netherlands, placing it among the country’s top providers.
Emmanuel Laillier, Chief Investment Officer of Private Equity at Tikehau Capital stated, “Partnering with TotalEnergies to develop the public charging networks in Belgium and the Netherlands fully reflects our policy of investing in infrastructure that drives the energy transition forward. The joint platform will facilitate access to efficient, sustainable charging solutions, helping take carbon out of the transport sector,”
