Petroperú opens third EV charging site

This new equipment in collaboration with Enel X Way allows the brand's network of service stations to provide charging services between the cities of Lima and Ica.

Petroperú has installed its third electric vehicle (EV) charger station as part of its commitment to new energy sources. The installation is the result of its collaboration with Enel X Way, establishing a modern recharging equipment that delivers up to 60 kW of power in a service station located in the city of Ica.

Two EVs can have their batteries fully charged simultaneously in less than 50 minutes. The company is offering free recharging services during a promotional period to raise awareness of the benefits of alternative fuels in the Peruvian market.

With this third electric charging station, Petroperu now offers electric charging across the route between Lima and Ica, making it the first EV charging corridor nationwide.

"It is an ambitious project that we are carrying out hand in hand with the owners of the service stations who have opted for new energy sources at their points of sale," said Francisco Alvarado Manrique, Marketing Manager at Petroperu.

Through this development, Petroperú, Enel X Way and the service stations of the network keep promoting the development of electromobility in the country in order to contribute to sustainable development objectives.
