New SOCAR charger in Affoltern am Albis
2xCCS max 150kW
65ct/kWh contactless
As of last week, the spaces were not painted yet. Even stranger, the left spot was reserved for a taxi company 🤔

Don't expect to charge on inauguration day, even if the app says available... I lost my time in queue, just to find the chargers blocked 😕
2 cars managed to plug in... But had to share a unit

Update on this session: I was not billed anything 🤔 (with TWINT)
"Payment failed. The reservation amount was reimbursed"
The status page was not showing anything during my session, but I did charge at least 2kWh as indicated on the charger screen

Today's useless graph brought to you by the team at i-charging
With all the nonsensical interface choices, I refuse to believe their UI team has ever used one of their chargers, or an electric car for that matter 🤦🏻♂️

Construction of the Electra stations on both sides of the Affoltern rest stop has begun
Southbound looks like the first Electra pull-through of 🇨🇭 though there won't be space for trailers 🥲
6 charging spots both ways

In September, the ABB Terra at the Deitingen Nord rest stop was replaced with an Alpitronic HYC_50
No more AC or CHAdeMO
You can now enjoy 150A and 800V charging, though if you end up sharing it'll be slower than before
0.5621CHF/kWh [very precise 🤔] TWINT or credit card QR

Migros Crissier will soon have a similar setup to Bern Westside
12x 50kW by Migrol
12x 250kW by Tesla
Just a shame that customers are left with no interim charging solution after the 6x AC were disconnected 🫤

New Tesla Crissier Supercharger seems almost ready to relieve some pressure off Bussigny
12 spots, V3.5, already says open to all EVs
First time we see this 2-by-2 configuration in 🇨🇭
It's not ICEd now, but you can be certain that once it works it will be a problem 😬

SOCAR Wohlen appears to have been out of service for 2 months
No explanation on location, is it because of the construction work on the wall?
I think the yellow cable might be the charger power, obviously you want that covered before resuming operation 😅

Migros Vaud are leaving their electric customers confused and stranded
The contract between Migros and Romande Energie expired, many chargers remain powered on without any obvious sign they cannot be used
Customers are still trying and failing to charge ONE MONTH LATER

Hidden dirt hole around the tree that you have to walk into to take the CCS. Worse when it rains and becomes muddy 🤦🏻♂️
Second AC cable holder placed on the hedge side when it's perfectly possible to configure it on the road side 🤷🏻♂️

AVIA VOLT on St. Margrethen Süd is in service
The parking spaces were not yet painted when I visited last week. I wonder how exactly they will draw them. I tried, but even with my tiny car I can't plug in when parking forward 🙄
Contactless not yet in service

Now featuring their first 400kW chargers for cars!
The parking spaces for the new chargers are not painted yet. Presumably they will be straight like the others

Most powerful public charger in 🇨🇭 at AGROLA Konolfingen
Not an Alpitronic... But i-charging!
They claim up to 600kW, and it might be possible at the 1000V cutoff, but more realistically you could get 400-500kW at 600A
1.5MW/1.5MWh buffer battery
Can be upgraded to MCS later

Construction of the Electra station at Shoppi Tivoli (Spreitenbach) appears to have begun!
It's next to the AC chargers on the Shoppi side, level 0
There's space for 12 fast chargers, will they equip the whole at once?
The parking cost has risen significantly since my last visit. 1h=2CHF

Migros Herisau is the only M-CHARGE location with more connectors than parking spaces 🤔
2xCCS max 50kW + 1xAC
I wonder why they kept one AC when they added the DC charger in July. Perhaps the store manager owns a PHEV and forced them to do so? 😅

The angled parking spaces can create some challenges, but those Alpitronic cables are actually quite long!

Urban DC charging in Villeneuve
Reasonable price at 59ct/kWh
But not a very good hardware choice, they probably had to buy it under contact from Evpass back in the day

Shell Recharge in Palézieux, opened in September
Very cute setup, though not friendly for long vehicles. You might be able to park at pump 5 in front of the shop and reach with the cable
4xCCS max 300kW
