In parallel, Iberdrola will install charging stations at IKEA main offices in San Sebastián de los Reyes and its logistics centre in Valls (Tarragona). The roll-out in Spain, which will start this month, will be completed in 2019.

Customers and users of these IKEA stations will recharge batteries with 100% green energy, which comes from clean generating sources and has a certificate guaranteeing its renewable origins.

Whether customers of Iberdrola or not, drivers will be able to manage charging on mobile phones using the app the company has developed as part of its Smart Mobility plan. With the Iberdrola Public Charging App, e-vehicle drivers will be able to locate and book a charging station.
