Circle K has installed 16 360 kW electric vehicle charging points at five strategic locations in Sweden, according to a press release.

Locations include Hudiksvall, Mantorp, Malmö Spillepengen, and Bollebygd, with funding from the Swedish Energy Agency coming under auspices of the Regional Electrification Pilots for Heavy Transport program.

The total number of Circle K EV charging points in Sweden has risen to 50, and the brand plans to expand that number to 90 by next year.

"It's always fun when you're in the lead and we really are when it comes to charging infrastructure for heavy traffic," Lennart Olsson, who oversees heavy traffic charging at Circle K, said in the release. "We have noticed the demand as well, our station in Vädermotet has seen a significant increase in the number of heavy vehicles charging over the summer."
