Tesla working to bring free home charging to Sweden

Tesla has teamed with electric company Skelleftea Kraft to develop free in-home charging solutions for Tesla drivers in Sweden.

Nearly 1,000 Model S vehicles were registered in Sweden in 2015, which represents a year-on-year growth of 271 per cent.

With this new partnership Tesla looks to provide these drivers with free in-home charging up to 28,000 miles over a three year period, supported by 100 per cent renewable energy from the Swedish company.

Peter Bardenfleth-Hansen, Tesla Director for Nordic countries, said: “Skelleftea Kraft is a highly sustainable brand that really stands out approaching the world’s contemporary challenges. It requires motivation, creativity and perseverance. We like partners with a strong maverick profile. With this agreement, our Swedish customers can enjoy even more environmentally friendly electricity free of charge, whilst we at Tesla can look forward to our first energy company partnership that can serve as a role model for how to build sustainable partnerships in the future.”
