A Porsche ID is required to access the charging stations and the lounge area. Thanks to the Porsche Charging Service, the charging price of 33 cents per kilowatt hour is just as low as for other fast-charging stations in the Porsche network. The Porsche Charging Lounges are integrated in the Porsche Charging Service and are displayed in the navigation system. Interactive Porsche content can also be selected here. Workouts can be done in front of a smart mirror to keep the driver fit for the journey ahead. Analogue and digital media and a high-performance WiFi network are also available. Payments can be made with debit and credit cards as well as Apple Pay or Google Pay. To ensure a pleasant visit, there are modern sanitary facilities in the lounge area, as well as a large selection of soft drinks and snacks. The digital building management optimises power consumption, for example by automatically dimming the lighting when there are no guests. Part of the required electricity is provided by the photovoltaic system of solar cells on the roof. The first Porsche Charging Lounge in the world is heated and air-conditioned by a heat pump that operates without fossil fuels. Bright colours and light wood provide an atmosphere that promotes a sense of well-being. The lounge is glazed from floor to ceiling, creating a smooth transition between inside and outside. A slim roof that appears to float connects the charging points with the building. The pilot site in Bingen provides a preview of how this design could look in the future. The unique design of the exclusive fast-charging stations underlines their special character. They are a barrier-free, sustainable and state-of-the-art addition to the IONITY network.” Unique design “The exclusive Porsche Charging Lounges are making an important contribution to this. This ambitious ramp-up requires a high-performance and dense fast-charging network,” says Oliver Blume, Chairman of the Executive Board of Porsche AG. 2030 we want over 80 per cent of the cars that we deliver to be all-electric. “Porsche has mapped out an ambitious path towards electrification. The charging processes use power from certified renewable sources. ![]() ![]() By the start of next year, 400 kW per charging point should be possible. The fast-charging stations currently provide a maximum of 300 kW but are capable of being upgraded to deliver even higher charging speeds. Here, all electric and plug-in hybrid models from Porsche can be supplied with electricity at powerful chargers manufactured by South Tyrolean electronic specialist Alpitronic. Shiro Oni Studio ultimately aims to help reverse this by bringing outgoing, community-minded artists to the area.Located close to busy routes with significant traffic flow, open 24/7, with very high charging performance, a comfortable ambience, and convenient, central billing of charging costs, the new Porsche Charging Lounges are perfectly tailored to the requirements of Porsche drivers on long journeys. Many of the buildings in the center of town have already been demolished, and the remaining structures are often used for storage or simply abandoned. Today, with the loss of population and industry in the mountainous countryside, the same geography that once channeled traders through the area cuts Onishi off from the outside world. Onishi quarries red and green gardening stones called ‘Sanbaseki,’ after the river they come from, ‘Sanbagawa.’ The stones, often larger than a car, can be seen in parking lots and along roads throughout town. While the silk trade has moved overseas, another industry of the town still continues. With the modernization of Japan’s economy, labor-intensive sericulture faded, and silk is no longer produced. Shiro Oni Studio’s Kinuya building was central in this trade and sold silk on its way north for almost a century. The sericulture (silk) farmers from the surrounding mountains would come to the valley town and sell their raw silk to merchants. The town of Onishi (population 5,800) was once an important collection point along the silk road. ![]()
