Charging stations in Bordeaux
Like many metropolises in France, the city of Bordeaux is also committed to the ecological transition, using electric cars to get around. According to Avere-FranceNew Aquitaine is the 3ᵉ region with the most charging points, after the Île-de-France and Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes regions.
In January 2014, Bluecub, an electric car-sharing network in Bordeaux, had been launched for short journeys. But in 2020, due to the Covid-19 health crisis and low profitability of the service, Bluecub had to halt its activity. To cope with the explosion in demand, the Breton group Autopuz, which specializes in the sale of electric cars, decided to buy 220 charging stations from the Bluecub network. In fact, according to Bordeaux town hall, 65 of the former network's electric charging stations have already been integrated since March 2021.

Charging stations in Bordeaux: expanding the network of charging stations
The Bordeaux metropolitan area currently has :
- 318 spaces equipped with charging stations in public parking lots managed by Metpark.
- 17 fast-charging stations (64 charging points),
- 1 accelerated charging station (2 charging points)
- 67 slow-charge stations (174 charge points)
Despite the availability of charging stations, there are still only a limited number available for all EV (electric vehicle) drivers to recharge their vehicles.

Opinions
I was managed by Léo I would like to thank him for his seriousness, his sound advice and his responsiveness in managing my file.
As a new user of a BEEV terminal, I can only recommend it. The equipment is simple, reliable and connected, and lives up to its sales promises. The installation was carried out with great care and attention to detail, in line with my initial requirements, so that everything was invisible apart from the bollard! The installers really took their time to study the case and find the best solutions. My contact, Sabri, who managed the project from A to Z, is particularly responsive and very professional, not to mention friendly. The 5 stars are more than deserved for the whole service, bravo to Beev.
A true electric vehicle specialist who gives great advice 🙂
Good experience, reliability, power and quality of the terminal will ensure a long life!
Very professional, I worked with Léonard on the leasing part and his advice was invaluable and his responsiveness excellent. I recommend him without hesitation.
Pulsar+ bollard installation at a private home in the Yvelines. Top sales service, very good communication. Very efficient electrician, also very good communication and very good advice. Thanks for everything.
Really top-notch, and a big thank you to Léo!
I recently had Beev install a charging station at my home for my electric vehicle. I specifically paid for a triphase installation, which allows for faster charging. However, there was a miscommunication, and the technician initially installed a monophase setup. This could have been a major setback, but Beev impressed me with how they handled it. They readily acknowledged the mistake and took full responsibility for the extra work needed. At their own expense, Beev scheduled a return visit to upgrade the installation to the triphase setup I originally requested. The technicians who came back were professional and efficient. They completed the upgrade quickly and left my workspace clean. Most importantly, the triphase charger is now functioning perfectly! While the initial mix-up caused a slight delay, I truly appreciate Beev's commitment to getting things right. They went above and beyond to ensure I received the triphase installation I paid for. Their customer service and willingness to rectify the situation were outstanding. Overall, I highly recommend Beev for EV charger installation. They are professional, responsive, and dedicated to customer satisfaction.
I would like to congratulate Léonard on his responsiveness and professionalism in handling our case. Thank you
Super responsiveness and professionalism from Léonard

Have a question about our services? Perhaps we already answered already answered it!
The electric car market continues to attract many French people. There are several ways to power your car: you can either go to a recharging station, or opt to install a recharging point at home. Let's take a look at the latter and its advantages.
Freely charge your vehicle
At present, electric vehicles are still in full expansion, but many users have difficulty finding charging stations: either because there are no more spaces available, or because the charging is not adapted to their vehicle.
The solution to this problem is to install a charging station directly at your home.
First of all, having a charging station at home allows you to charge your vehicle freely. From home, you can charge your vehicle at any time, free to go about your business.
This means you're no longer dependent on charging stations in public parking lots.
Safety
Moreover, the charging station remains a safe bet in terms of safety. Charging stations are equipped with circuit breakers and switches. These elements protect and withstand special conditions, such as the risk of overheating or potential short-circuits. These circuit-breakers and differential switches will enable you to protect people and equipment.
In fact, we strongly advise against regularly recharging your electric vehicle on a standard 10 A socket, to avoid the risk of overheating components and, consequently, of fire.
Environmental reasons for a charging station
Secondly, the installation of a charging station has environmental motivations. From the comfort of your own home, charging stations enhance the value of your building or residence. This will attract potential buyers and tenants for future sales.
In addition to having a charging station at home, if you install photovoltaic panels, you'll be able to recharge your vehicle and use 100% of the sustainable energy from these panels. So, these actions represent an impact towards more sustainable mobility.
In fact, if the charging station installation is suitable, Beev can install it for you. Don't hesitate to contact us!

To be able to charge your electric vehicle, the Bordeaux Métropole charging network was accessible free of charge, but since November 2, 2021, this network has become chargeable throughout the territory. This has been decided with the aim of improving electrical infrastructures and ensuring a good rotation of electric cars.
To access these dedicated spaces, each rate is determined by the type of station (slow, fast or accelerated). What's more, these different rates become progressive after 3 hours, and applicable to all 3 types of session.
Here are the rates according to the type of station:
Slow charging station (power: 2.3 kW) | Accelerated charging station (power: 7.4 to 22 kW) | Fast charging station (power: up to 350 kW) | |
The first 3 sessions | 1.50/hour | 3 €/hour | 6 €/hour |
More than 3 hours session | 2 €/hour | 4 €/hour | 12 €/hour |
Max night (9pm to 8am) | 4.50 maximum | 9 € maximum | 0 |
It's not just private individuals who benefit from the installation of a charging station. If you're a professional, you can install charging stations in your company.Company charging infrastructure also offers a number of advantages.
Here are just a few examples:
Attract and retain new customers
On the one hand, the charging stations will attract electric car users who have difficulty finding an electric charging station.
What's more, charging stations will also keep your customers coming back for more. Recharging a car generally takes between 30 minutes and 1 hour, if the charging station used has a fast charge.
In the meantime, drivers can run errands or eat out in restaurants, safe in the knowledge that their vehicle has filled up with electricity.
Satisfying your employees
Installing a recharging point in your parking lot is also a plus for your employees. Giving them easy access to the charging stations does several things:
- Added value: charging stations provide an additional service for your employees, in this case recharging their vehicles at work.
- Improving your image and carbon footprint: this shows that your company has a social and societal responsibility(CSR).
- Attracting new employees: the younger generations are increasingly attentive to the efforts made by their employers in terms of sustainable development. This shows that you want to play your part in improving the environment.

- Time-saving: charging stations at the hotel make it easy for your guests to access the charging stations.
