This year, film festival stars arriving in Berlin will not only travel in style but also sustainably, in a fleet of 70 Audi e-trons powered by ABB’s Terra DC fast chargers.
Installed alongside the red carpet, opposite the event entrance, ABB’s best selling chargers will be used to charge the Audi e-trons which will transport guests to the event. Further ABB Terra chargers are located close to the festival site for any additional charging requirements.
The chargers offer a safe, smart and sustainable charging solution which supports ABB Electrification’s Mission to Zero for smart cities – a vision for a zero-emission reality for all.
Frank Muehlon, Head of ABB’s global business for E-mobility Infrastructure Solutions comments: “This high-profile event is a fantastic opportunity for us to showcase the future of e-mobility to a global audience.
“Emission-free mobility is a significant part of ABB Electrification’s Mission to Zero for smart cities and we are delighted to be partnering with Audi to shine a spotlight on the vital role which sustainable travel can play in creating a greener world for future generations.”
