Fast-charging on Germany's Baltic coast just got a major upgrade. Plenitude, the mobility arm of Italian energy group Eni, has opened what it says is its largest charging park in Germany, in Moenchhagen just north of Rostock. The hub went into service on 16 July 2026 and brings 22 charging points to a stretch of the B105 federal road that feeds the A20 motorway and the Baltic ferry ports.
What the site offers
The park is built around a mix of charging speeds so that both long-distance travellers and local drivers can be served at the same time. The headline figure is a peak of 400 kW, enough to add meaningful range in minutes for any current Tesla and for the growing number of 800-volt EVs now on European roads.
| Charger type | Peak power | Count |
|---|---|---|
| Ultra-fast (HPC) | up to 400 kW | 4 |
| Fast | up to 200 kW | 4 |
| Standard DC | up to 50 kW | 1 |
The remaining points round the site out to 22 connectors in total. Plenitude contract customers pay a promotional 50 cents per kWh until the end of August, after which standard tariffs apply.
Charging at the bakery
What makes the location unusual is its host: the hub sits at a branch of the regional chain Junge Die Baeckerei, described as the first bakery drive-in in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. The pairing is deliberate. Rather than parking at an anonymous forecourt, drivers can grab a coffee and a snack while their car charges, turning the roughly 15-to-20-minute stop into something closer to a normal break. It is a model European operators increasingly favour, siting high-power chargers next to shops, bakeries and restaurants instead of standalone lots.
Why it matters for Tesla drivers
Tesla's own Supercharger network is dense across much of Germany, but the far north-east around Rostock and the Baltic coast has historically been thinner than the industrialised west and south. A 22-point, 400 kW site directly on a main route to the ferry terminals gives Model 3, Model Y and other Tesla owners a genuine alternative when Superchargers are busy during the summer holiday peak.
Because the chargers use the CCS standard, they are open to every Tesla sold in Europe without an adapter, and the site accepts ad-hoc payment as well as Plenitude contracts. For owners planning a trip to the Baltic beaches or onward to Scandinavia, it is one more reason the range-anxiety calculation keeps shrinking.
Plenitude, which operates under the Plenitude On The Road brand, says it is now active in more than 15 countries as Eni builds out a pan-European charging footprint to sit alongside its energy business. The Moenchhagen opening is its biggest German statement yet.
