The European Parliament has reached a provisional agreement with the EU Council regarding charging and hydrogen refueling stations across Europe.

The rule states that by 2026, there will be charging stations at every 60 kilometers along the TEN-T network.

For those who don't know, the TEN-T is the EU's ambitious transport network project that includes highways, roads, ports and trains, connecting all parts of the Old Continent.

The supposed map for TEN-T. Interesting how on various transport maps the center of France is always completely empty. Must be one hell of a disconnected place to live in.

i once walked parts of the Camino de Santiago from Basel to santiago de compostela witha friend. We got lost between Lyon and Limoges, as we "took a shortcut" after realizing just how much walking the official routes (sometimes wrong way) would mean and we really wanted to stop by at Bordeaux and Santander to stay with friends.

That area was mostly woods.

It's interesting how Germany is connected to 6/8 of these transport corridors. Geographical Perk.
