TotalEnergies opens new rural stations

London, 28 August, 2023, (Oilandgaspress) – In the current context of rising fuel prices, TotalEnergies continues to implement its commitment to its motorist customers, which guarantees that the price of diesel and gasoline will not exceed not €1.99/L in all of its 3,400 service stations until the end of the year.
Today, 2,200 service stations out of 3,400 already benefit from this measure since the price of at least one fuel is currently capped at €1.99/L.

TotalEnergies is also mobilizing for greater proximity with its customers by reintroducing the profession of gas station attendant in some of its service stations and by reopening service stations in rural areas, in the heart of the territories and as close as possible to French people. .

Gas station attendants back at some TotalEnergies service stations
In order to promote proximity with our motorist customers, 100 TotalEnergies service stations have recruited gas station attendants who are already at the service of customers. Free of charge, the gas station attendant fills up for customers who wish to do so, helps with the use of station equipment (washing vehicles, inflating tires), provides information on the products available in the shop and current promotions. 300 service stations will welcome pump attendants in 2024.

TotalEnergies opens new rural stations
In 2023, TotalEnergies decided to reopen 20 rural stations in France. TotalEnergies invests in rural areas to maintain its network of service stations that provide local service to French people. The Company will support the development of new services with the establishment of partnerships to contribute to the development of social ties and local commercial dynamism: rental of electric bicycles, gray cards, shops, parcel relay, car garage.

In Nassandres-sur-Risle, for example, in the department of Eure (27), the reopening of the station will make it possible to install a mini-market, while the nearest grocery store is more than 14 km from the municipality.

“TotalEnergies’ commitment to serving our motorist customers is a priority. Against rising prices, our commitment to a ceiling price of 1.99 euro still stands. Giving pride of place to the job of gas station attendants also means responding to our customers’ expectation of proximity and this contributes to the creation of local jobs. The opening of new rural stations contributes to maintaining local activity, while developing local attractiveness for businesses that are essential in the life of French people in these municipalities. declared Patrick Pouyanné, Chairman and CEO of TotalEnergies .

These opening projects are carried out in consultation with the communities concerned in the following departments: Aisne (02), Alpes de Haute-Provence (04), Ardèche (07), Bouches-du-Rhône (13 ), Calvados (14), Eure (27), Indre-et-Loire (37), Loiret (45), Lot (46), Lot-et-Garonne (47), Marne (51), Saône-et-Loire (71) Sarthe (72), Savoie (73), Seine-Maritime (76) and Yonne (89).

The Company has nearly 1,150 rural stations in France, under the TotalEnergies Contact or Elan brand.
