Charging infrastructure provider Qwello has won a public tender to install 150 AC charging points in Ille-et-Vilaine, Brittany, expanding its presence in France’s growing electric vehicle (EV) charging network, the company said.
The charging points, spread across 36 municipalities including Rennes, are part of a broader project awarded by the Energy Union of Ille-et-Vilaine (SDE 35). The initiative follows a collaborative process in which municipalities proposed preferred locations for installation, Qwello said in a statement. A second tender is expected in 2025.

Qwello, in partnership with French charging specialist Driveco, will contribute to a total rollout of 184 charging points in Brittany. “Our proposal combines Driveco’s expertise in fast charging solutions with Qwello’s advanced technology for standard charging stations, offering a fully financed and user-friendly solution,” said Vincent Briola, General Director of Qwello France. “This partnership aims to promote sustainable mobility and support the regional drive towards a greener future.”
The new charging sites will add to Qwello’s existing network in France, which includes 15 points launched in 2023 along the Mediterranean coast in Montpellier and additional installations in cities such as Bayonne and Clermont-Ferrand.
