Compliant with IEC 62196-3 and Europe's stringent CE/TÜV standards, our CCS2 product range is purpose-built for France's public, commercial, and industrial EV charging demands.
France has emerged as one of Europe's most ambitious electric vehicle markets. Driven by stringent EU emissions legislation, President Macron's administration has pledged aggressive decarbonisation targets, including a full phase-out of internal combustion engines by 2035. As of 2024, France registered over 300,000 new electric vehicles annually, placing it among the top three EV markets in the European Union alongside Germany and Norway.
Within this transition, the CCS2 (Combined Charging System 2) standard — defined under IEC 62196-3 and adopted across the EU — has become the de facto connector interface for DC fast charging. All public DC fast chargers in France are legally required to offer a CCS2-compatible socket, ensuring seamless interoperability across brands including Renault, Peugeot, Citroën, Volkswagen, BMW, and Tesla's European lineup.
France's commercial EV charging ecosystem is rapidly maturing. Operators such as TotalEnergies, Engie, Recharge (formerly EVBox France), and Izivia are deploying large-scale CCS2-equipped DC fast chargers along autoroutes, in retail parks, and at enterprise campuses across Île-de-France, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, and Occitanie regions. Industrial logistics hubs in Lyon, Marseille, and Bordeaux are transitioning commercial fleets to electric, requiring robust CCS2 depot charging infrastructure capable of handling high-cycle 24/7 operations.
Municipal governments are also investing heavily. Paris, Lyon, and Marseille have launched multi-year tenders for public charging concessions, with CCS2 sockets specified as mandatory in all tender documentation. These infrastructure contracts are valued collectively at billions of euros through 2030, representing an enormous opportunity for high-quality CCS2 connector suppliers with proven European market experience.
Motorway Fast-Charging Corridors: France's A1, A6, and A7 autoroutes are deploying 150kW–350kW DC fast chargers every 50km, all requiring high-durability CCS2 sockets rated for extreme temperature cycles and UV exposure. Sanco's IP55-rated CCS2 sockets are built to perform reliably in these demanding outdoor environments across all four French climatic zones.
Urban Retail & Supermarket Charging: Carrefour, E.Leclerc, and Intermarché are rolling out CCS2-equipped EV charging bays at their hypermarché locations nationwide. Compact, aesthetically refined CCS2 socket designs with anti-vandalism features are a priority requirement for this segment.
Corporate Fleet & Logistics Depots: La Poste, Chronopost, and Amazon France are electrifying their last-mile delivery fleets and require industrial-grade CCS2 charging infrastructure capable of 80A–200A continuous operations. Sanco's multi-ampere CCS2 connectors, available from 10A up to 250A, are ideal for these demanding fleet applications.
Railway & Public Transport Integration: SNCF and RATP are piloting hybrid and electric bus fleets with CCS2 overnight depot charging. The requirement for CE-marked, thermally managed CCS2 charging components aligns precisely with Sanco's rail-transit grade manufacturing standards.
The convergence of regulatory mandates, grid intelligence, and ultra-high-power charging is defining the next generation of CCS2 infrastructure across the French market.
France is accelerating deployment of 300kW+ HPC corridors under EU Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Regulation (AFIR). CCS2 connectors rated for 500A and beyond, incorporating liquid-cooled cable assemblies, are becoming the new standard for flagship French charging hubs at TotalEnergies, Fastned, and Ionity sites.
With France's Enedis grid operator piloting V2G programmes in Normandie and Nouvelle-Aquitaine, CCS2 sockets with bidirectional power capability and ISO 15118-2 communication compatibility are in high demand. Sanco's CCS2 charging connectors support advanced PLC communication protocols essential for smart-grid integration.
France's RE2020 environmental regulation and EU's Ecodesign directive push charging hardware manufacturers toward low-carbon materials, recyclable housings, and RoHS/REACH compliance. Sanco's CCS2 sockets are manufactured with halogen-free, flame-retardant materials, meeting France's strictest environmental procurement criteria.
The French climate — from Alpine cold in Grenoble and Chambéry to Mediterranean heat in Nice and Montpellier — demands CCS2 sockets rated IP55 or higher with operating ranges of -40°C to +85°C. Sanco engineers products specifically validated for these wide thermal envelopes, ensuring long service life across all French regions.
French CPMS (Charge Point Management System) vendors and EVSE OEMs increasingly require custom-branded CCS2 socket assemblies with bespoke cable lengths, colour variants, and integrated LED status indicators. Sanco's full OEM/ODM service covers design, tooling, and mass production at scale to satisfy these French market customisation requirements.
France's Agence nationale de sécurité du médicament (ANSSI) cybersecurity requirements and COFRAC-accredited safety testing align with CE, TÜV, UL, and IEC 62196-3 certifications. All Sanco CCS2 charging sockets carry the required European certifications, ensuring smooth market entry and compliance for French distributors and integrators.
With 2700 employees, 4 factories, 200+ R&D engineers, Sanco is a national high-tech enterprise that integrates R&D design, manufacturing, sales service, and after-sales support for connectivity system products, dedicated to becoming a leader in the field of connection technologies and products.
