On 15 February this year, the completed electric charging infrastructure was put into service. The construction works were carried out by SIA RECK, construction supervision services were provided by SIA BaltlineGlobe and author supervision services were provided by SIA REMPRO.

As part of the works, 21 electric bus chargers with a capacity of 120kW were installed in Bus Park 7. Each of these chargers is equipped with two charging ports, allowing 42 electric buses to be charged at the same time.

The construction works also included extensive associated works in the area of the 7th Bus Park to ensure the construction of the utilities necessary for the charging facilities, as well as to enable the safe operation of the chargers and the parking of electric buses.
