Milence – the joint venture between Daimler Truck, TRATON GROUP, and Volvo Group – has launched its first UK public charging hub in Immingham, marking a significant stride towards the decarbonisation of heavy-duty transport.
The Immingham hub, situated on the A180 with direct access to the M180, M18 and M1 motorways, is designed to serve the transport and logistics operations connecting the UK with Europe.
Phase one of the development includes four high-performance CCS chargers, providing access to eight charging bays and offering a power output of up to 400kW.
The site features secure, fenced parking, access control, camera surveillance, and essential amenities such as restrooms and vending machines.
Phase Two of the project at the Immingham site will see the installation of MSC chargers.
By 2027, Milence aims to have at least 1,700 high-performance charging points across Europe and the UK.
Multiple payment options are available, including various mobility charge cards and bank cards.
All Milence charging stations use 100% green energy and construction practices prioritize CO2 reduction.
Anja van Niersen, CEO of Milence, said: “The opening of our first UK charge hub in Immingham marks a significant step in the UK’s transition to electric road transport.
“This strategically located site underscores our commitment to providing reliable and accessible charging infrastructure for the growing number of electric truck operators.
“This is just the first step in our UK expansion, and we are dedicated to working with all stakeholders to accelerate the shift towards a sustainable future for the transport industry.”
