What is Bluelib?

Bluelib provides a high quality charging network available to all electric and hybrid vehicles. We offer both a subscription-based access with reduced rates, and a pay-as-you-go option that allows the public to access the charge point directly on the spot, according to their needs. Pass Pass card owners will be able to synchronise their Bluelib subscription with their travel pass, making Bluelib even easier to use and more convenient. By 2020, Bluelib will roll out 344 charge points all across Lille European Metropolis.

(1) Installation costs (charging points and connections), commissioning, maintenance and operations are provided by the Bolloré Group, without any costs for communities.
(2) The geographic coverage will be carried out in consultation with municipalities and project holders, to ensure consistency with existing and future projects. The AMF et the FNCCR (energy trade unions) had prepared a proposal of lease agreements on the public domain for municipalities to facilitate the procedures.
(3) In terms of operability, Blue Solutions is a founding member of the AFIREV, an association which gathers major operators for e-mobility to coordinate initiatives and elaborate standards between stake holders to promote interoperability for roaming.
