What do we do?
Electra was born in 2021 out of the desire to make cities more sustainable, quieter and cleaner, and to accelerate the shift to electric vehicles by tackling the main obstacle of recharging. Electra promotes electric mobility by expanding fast charging in cities.
We are constantly innovating to facilitate the recharging of electric vehicles with a network of fast charging hubs (15 to 30 minutes maximum) and to provide a seamless and simplified user experience. Product, quality and customer satisfaction are our top priorities!
With locations in Paris, Lyon, Brussels, and Milan, we are pursuing the goal of establishing a fast-charging network of 8,000 charging points by 2030 in order to participate in the energy transition in Europe.
In less than 24 months, we have:
Set up more than 250 charging points and secured 4000 charging points across Europe
Opened offices in France, Belgium and Italy
Received €175 million in funding
Joined the French Tech Next 40
Put together a team of +110 talents... and this is only the beginning: join us!
