The Chairman of Endesa, Borja Prado, together with the mayor of Madrid, Alberto Ruiz Gallardon, and the Chairman of Telefonica, Cesar Alierta, have today revealed the first phone booth in Madrid which can also be used for recharging electric vehicles. The booth is located at Ronda de la Comunicación, s/n, Madrid (District C) and will take the Endesa logo.Reserved parking spaces will be situated next to this and all other booths set up in Metropolitan areas where users will be able to park their EVs and recharge at no cost once they have acquired their free "zero emissions" pre-paid card from the Madrid city council.
This pilot scheme is proposed to demonstrate the project's technical viability, as well as its commercial feasibility.
During the pilot scheme, which is due to run until the end of the year, recharging will be free-of-charge using a pre-paid card. The system will be commenced commercially once the pilot scheme has finalised.
Endesa and Telefonica have signed an agreement to build up a technological solution using Telefonica's phone booths as EV recharging points. The aspire is to promote sustainable mobility and enable users to recharge their vehicles on public thoroughfares. This project, which uses pre-paid cards, will also give information on usage and consumption.
