The new charging station for electric commercial vehicles at the Allianz Arena is an important project on the road to a more climate-friendly transport. In close cooperation between FC Bayern and MAN Truck & Bus, one of Europe's leading commercial vehicle manufacturers, a charging hub with high charging capacity is being constructed.
From the initial idea to planning and implementation, the charging park represents the consistent expansion of the infrastructure for eTrucks and eBuses. Under the patronage of Bavarian Minister-President Dr Markus Söder, located at a busy junction and powered by 100% green electricity, the Allianz Arena, with the help of MAN, is laying the foundations for reducing greenhouse gas emissions in heavy goods transport.
