Joint HoLA & MACBETH megawatt charging symposium in Berlin
September 30 - October 1
The two zero-emission HGV research projects of HoLa and MACBETH are organising a joint symposium on truck megawatt charging, which will take place from 30 September until 1 October 2025 in Berlin, DE. Several AEVETO cluster projects and NextETRUCK partner CENEX NL will attend the event and discuss the challenges and opportunities of fast-charging technologies.
What are the aims of both projects?
HoLa:
HoLa will install and operate two Megawatt Charging System (MCS) points and multiple CCS charging points for electric lorries at five sites along the A2 between Berlin and the Ruhr region. It begins with two CCS chargers at each location, three near motorways and two at logistics hubs, to support early electric lorry integration and test fast-charging. By the end, there will be ten CCS and eight MCS chargers, with four manufacturers providing twelve vehicles. The project includes research to gather real-world data and create a model for national rollout.
MACBETH :
The MACBETH project aims to accelerate long-haul freight electrification by demonstrating multipoint megawatt charging hubs in several EU countries, addressing technical, social and economic challenges. It will develop interoperable, user-focused infrastructure and supporting tools to reach large-scale deployment readiness by the project’s end in 2029.
