Greece-Volkswagen agreement for a zero-emission island
Stampalia, only electric vehicles, energy from renewable sources
09 November, 14:54During the six-year-long agreement, Volkswagen will replace the approximately 1,500 combustion engine vehicles that run on the island with thousands of electric vehicles: buses, police vehicles, ambulances, delivery vans, scooters, and cars for pooling.
The German company will also install 230 charging stations. The electricity to power these vehicles will come mainly from renewable sources on the island, wind, and photovoltaic. The final goal is to make Stampalia a zero-emission island, testing how it is possible to achieve this result and what difficulties must be dealt with and overcome. (ANSA).
