Infrastructure for electric vehicle charging in Bergisch Gladbach undergoes expansion

Bergisch Gladbach is moving forward with the expansion of public charging infrastructure for electric vehicles, with the focus shifting towards inner-city residential areas where parking and charging options are often limited. The city administration is providing urban traffic and parking areas for this expansion, aiming to address unmet needs calculated in 2023 by the EcoLibro office from Troisdorf.

Currently, there are around 80 public charging points in operation throughout the city, set to blink in the coming weeks. An up-to-date overview of charging points in operation and in concrete implementation is available on the city's website.

Future plans include the densification of public fast-charging infrastructure. The positive development over the years was made possible due to early staffing of the topic of charging infrastructure management by the administration.

Mayor Frank Stein expressed his satisfaction with the current progress, stating that Bergisch Gladbach is already taking a pioneering role in NRW with the consistent expansion of charging infrastructure.

In addition to the city's efforts, private operators such as BELKAW, Wirelane, Hochtief Ladepartner, E-Hub Solutions, and Qwello Deutschland are driving the expansion on a commercial basis. The administration is also in contact with companies awarded contracts by the federal government to realize two fast-charging locations in the city as part of the Germany network.

However, no specific private companies were named as involved in the expansion of charging infrastructure in Bergisch Gladbach in the provided search results. It is worth noting that no new information about the urban traffic and parking areas for the expansion of public charging infrastructure was provided in this paragraph.

Looking ahead, public charging options are becoming more prominent in cityscapes, with future plans including the densification of public fast-charging infrastructure. In 2025, the demand analysis was updated to reflect current developments and the expansion of public charging infrastructure in the city area.

For those interested in the latest developments, an up-to-date overview of charging points in operation and in concrete implementation can be found on the city's website.
