GOFAST have added some interesting parking space delimiters in Wettswil. Will people park correctly? 🤔 They also added cameras, with the consequence that the vertical signage is gone. They will probably re-add it along with the missing CCTV sign

No more cheap charging in Bassecourt... At least for now The expansion work at Tellis has begun, but no advance notice, and no timeline posted on location 🙁

New overstay penalty: if you come back late to unplug your car, the trapdoor opens and you are taken prisoner 😂 But on a serious note, this seems dangerous for the car if you back up too far. What's the weight rating on this thing?

Due to ongoing roadwork, it's a mystery each time from which side you can access the VEBO parking and GOFAST station in Oensingen Seems like it's always better to exit at Oensingen Nord rather than follow the detour

The Shell Bureau of EV Enshittification presents their latest innovation Combining the tried and tested methods of preventing reverse at the end of the row, useless bollards, unreliable GMDC hardware and now with hard space dividers and basically no way to access In Ottenbach

Amenities: cat to pet Unfortunately this service is not guaranteed 24/7 😸

Did you know SBB is also a CPO? My stats show such low usage, I don't think many know about the eCharge offering. I've never seen any ad 10 P+R parkings are equipped, including Solothurn All 0.50CHF/kWh If you use your Swisspass, electricity and parking are billed together 👌🏻

After Shell, there is a second location where you can pay via contactless in Thun, at Volvo Better than Shell, but still 0.65CHF/kWh Not a great coverage, considering there are a dozen of 50kW+ chargers around town Pray that the charger isn't blocked by dealership cars

New fast charger in Läufelfingen 2xCCS max 100kW 0.59CHF/kWh, contactless ONLY They tell me the parking spaces will be painted soon Not particularly attractive to travellers, On the minor road between Olten- Sissach. You can reach it from the A2 exit Eptingen then steep pass

Good news for Hünenberg residents, eCarUp time of day pricing now in effect. Overstay fees only 6h-24h 8 months after the switch from Evpass, the signs posted above the stations with these tariffs are now correct again No other public CPO using this eCarUp feature at the moment

Ouch, expensive mistake. Doubly so if they crashed a brand new BMW into it 😱 Häusermann in Aarau is one of few dealerships to have more than one DC charger, and all open to the public at a "reasonable" 0.60CHF/kWh price But all 3 CCS have been out of service for a month now 😩

Alpitronic chargers are great when working, but I am getting more annoyed by the day 😡 When there's a problem, there's no way to know what is wrong. I'm not calling the helpline, they never know either Stuck at 0kW for 5 minutes before switching charger, car shows no sign of problem

New IONITY station in Wangen an der Aare Can't be closer to the freeway than this! The second Alpitronic-only location of Switzerland Contactless not operational yet

eCarUp have finally implemented overstay charges in their platform! Currently only a handful of AC chargers use this feature, in particular Elektro-Genossenschaft Hünenberg BUT... They don't seem to support time of day constraints, so it's now very inconvenient to charge at night 😐

Is this charger supposed to be public? Good luck finding it behind the dumpsters 😅 It's a very special piece of technology. A 43kW AC charger that isn't combined with a DC charger 👀

EVTEC now offer a power graph on their latest hardware/software revision I wish we could see the amperes! There's also a power limit indicator in some versions, but I have yet to see the limit AND graph on the same unit 🤔

Huge parking spaces at Agrola Courtepin! I wonder what they were thinking when drawing the truck-sized space on the right... That's not where you need the plug when pulling in a semi-trailer 🤔

Migros Panorama Center Thun was upgraded from 8 to 12 connectors It was really needed, for Saturdays and anytime a match takes place in the Stockhorn Area Opening hours unclear, every website says something different. Since they went barrier-free nothing is posted anymore

Agrola are opening their second "600kW" station in Lyssach First time Diesel and EV truck charging is combined like this in 🇨🇭 250CHF reservation = 380kWh at 65ct/kWh Doesn't seem to work just yet. One charger officially out of service, other cancelled session after pre-charge

Happy Easter from the Glooten rest stops near Iseltwald! Unfortunately you barely see the lake from ground level, but there's an amazing view of the mountains! 4xCCS + 1xCHAdeMO in both directions 0.69CHF/kWh with contactless (MOVE)

No kidding, today I had to help someone who could not find how to stop their charge Would you find the correct button? (Media compression will make this even worse) - Starten - Beenden - Beleg - Abbrechen

Good thing the cable is long enough at Migros Hünibach! Why did they bother drawing angled parking spaces, when drawing them 90° would have taken the same space, if not less! 😩 Big cars will not fit within the rectangle anyway...

More fail than win? At MOVE Aspholz contactless is available, BUT... You have to guess which connector is which because the numbers 1-4 aren't on the unit 🤡 The contrast is terrible and price almost unreadable 🤷🏻‍♂️ And it's 0.69CHF/kWh ad-hoc 🫤

There is no fast charging anymore between Thun and Interlaken, the EWB charger in Spiez has been removed 🙁 It's just a 26km stretch, so not catastrophic, but still... With this also goes one of the last 43kW AC on that road. Glad I got rid of my OG Zoe...

Cool, there are battery-electric bendy buses in Interlaken! (In addition to the earlier regular ones) I wanted to take a picture of it charging, but they didn't even lower the pantograph while waiting 😂

Just another Sunday at the Rubigen highway exit You wouldn't even know Electra opened so much more recently. It's so busy already!

Seems like the MOVE chargers on rest stops La Tuffière and Les Muéses are finally back in service! They worked briefly in October last year, then no more There's an usual restriction at the second location, a 3.5t weight limit for the charging spots

There's now minimal Eni branding on the 150kW chargers in Aarau. No stickers on the 100kW chargers yet Contactless doesn't work yet, expected for this summer One of the 150kW CCS doesn't seem to work, it's not in the apps and the cable management is broken Still 0.70CHF/kWh

Electra at Burger King/Aligro in Sargans/Wangs Very scenic

There's a "new" Pronto Charge location in Oberentfelden, but it's just the old Eniwa charger re-branded and made worse - No longer roams - No longer accepts TWINT or Google Pay - Still no contactless - Signage says <400kW... it's 80kW The price did go from 60 to 59ct/kWh 🤷🏻‍♂️

The largest Electra station of Switzerland is open at Shoppi Tivoli in Spreitenbach! 12xCCS max 300kW 0.64CHF/kWh ad-hoc, 59 app, 39 abo Parking 2CHF/h during business hours, 30ct/h other times

GOFAST is leaving us *in the dark* about their new ALDI location in Landquart It has been working for a few weeks but is not on their website yet Maybe they don't want to advertise it until the parking spaces are painted and some lights installed 😅 6xCCS max 300kW, 70ct/kWh ad-hoc

Rush hour in Murten, but no car charging at GOFAST both Aldi and McDonald's. Where is everybody? 🤔 The 67 and 69ct/kWh ad-hoc prices aren't very inviting, but the app price is the same as Agrola at 65ct/kWh People must be driving out of town to cheaper stations. Or using the 50kW at supermarkets

Coop Löwenberg in Murten has an unusual setup 4xCCS + a single AC connector 55ct/kWh DC, contactless available All Energie360° AC chargers at Coop were raised from 29 to 39ct/kWh a few weeks ago

A new player has entered the game! Atlante have opened their first swiss station in Marly 4xCCS max 350kW 0.55CHF/kWh with Atlante or Fastned apps. Contactless not yet operational Want to pay even less? It's 0.29CHF/kWh with Electra app, no subscription required. Who needs logic? 🤷🏻‍♂️

The cheapest charger in Canton Jura is now more expensive, but still the cheapest (unless you own an AMAG car, then the AMAG charger is the cheapest) From 34 to 36ct/kWh The sign still uses nonsensical units, and doesn't mention the 50ct/h parking fee

Fast charging prices update Electra and IONITY have raised their ad-hoc prices (+4 and +1ct/kWh respectively) Electra introduced overstay fees after 75min (not in this table) Tesla increased their peak hour prices, with now most of their stations at 77ct/kWh (55 abo)

Nice setup at the recently built Feuerwehr Tiefgarage in Richterswil 6 regular charging spots + 1 charger on handicap spot. 0.42CHF/kWh But no wonder the parking is completely empty at 1.8CHF/h around the clock. They need to do something to allow economical night charging!

Back at Electra Wädenswil. Still not fully cleaned up, but everything working There's an Electra sign on the main road. Not sure if new, or just not visible at night during my previous visit

New charging hub in Aarau! 4xCCS max 150kW 4xCCS max 100kW 0.70CHF/kWh via Plentitude, likely more via roaming The original 2xCCS location was passed from GOFAST, to MOVE and now Eni. No idea who is the actual owner, there was never a clear branding Picture from before opening

Electra Rubigen is open! 6xCCS max 300kW Buffer battery Next to the Tesla Supercharger, Coop Pronto and Denner at the highway exit Just like Tesla, unclear if you have to pay for parking while charging Interestingly, Tesla also originally opened with 6 stalls... In 2015!

I just discovered that Lidl is giving you 50% on 3 charging sessions until March 8! Activate in the app. That's 0.21CHF/kWh on DC But the developers really messed up, the price is no longer visible anywhere in the app! How is this legal? You know it's 50%, but of what? 🤦🏻‍♂️

Recent changes to fast charging prices in 🇨🇭 - AMAG ended promo for non-AMAG owners. Start fees make a return. Ad-hoc price lowered - Fastned introduced new app price 66ct/kWh - Eni lowered price 75 -> 70ct/kWh - Swisscharge/MOVE price increase at GOFAST, 59 -> 65ct/kWh

New fast charger by EWN at the port in Stansstad 2xCCS max 100kW 0.55CHF/kWh+6CHF/h = ~0.61CHF/kWh at perfect speed, ~0.67CHF/kWh at 50kW 🫤 Unclear if you also have to pay the 1.5CHF at the parking meter for durations between 30min and 1h30

New Eni charger in Derendingen Only their second station to feature 4xCCS up to 300kW. Perhaps even 400kW but I cannot confirm I was unable to activate the charge with their app, it said connector unavailable, then complained I had an active session. Had to use a roaming RFID

When @fastned.bsky.social says the lounge is open 24/7, they apparently mean literally. The door won't close 😅 The free contactless reader to open the main door worked, but the second reader advertising 0.69EUR for the toilet didn't work 🙁 Just a single (swiss) power outlet inside the lounge...

Electra is being quiet about their first station of 2026. Opened 2 weeks ago in Wädenswil, but I haven't seen any social media post about it yet, and there's still no picture in the app 🤔 I had to visit to see what was going on. Everything seems to be working!

Happy new year everyone! Has your 2026 been free of unit errors so far? Let me change that 😂 You'd think electricians would know better...

I messed up 😬 In every graph from this weekend, the estimated session count was too high, off by a factor of ~2. The occupation rate was correct. Below is a better graph with the actual best day of 2024, Dec 28. Dec 27 still the absolute winner of 2025

Final numbers for this Saturday Added one of this Summer's busiest days for comparison. Clearly end of year is always the peak Notice the Tesla midnight bump, it's the super low price incentive that didn't exist in 2024 And look, the grid didn't collapse 🤪 (obviously)
