The project
The e-Totem Méditerranée fundraising campaign aims to finance a portfolio of charging stations divided into two distinct projects:
- The tender for the commune of Sainte-Maxime in the Var
- The tender for the Hérault Méditerranée agglomeration in the Hérault
Commune of Sainte-Maxime in the Var
History
The company e-Totem responded to and won the call for expressions of interest from the commune of Sainte-Maxime in the Var for the deployment, financing, operation, and maintenance of electric vehicle charging infrastructures for a period of 15 years.
The present project will enable the installation of 19 charging stations representing 65 unique charging points. The deployment of the facilities began in June 2025 and will be completed in the first quarter of 2026. On-demand charging points can be implemented in 2026-2027.
Facilities to be built
| Station | e-Fast+ 4+1 | e-City 4 | e-Premium 2 | e-Smart 4 | On-demand charging point (e-City and e-Premium) | Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Power per charging point | 100 to 180 kW | 22 kW | 22 to 25 kW | 22 kW | 22 kW | |
| Number of stations | 3 | 6 | 5 | 1 | 4 | 19 |
| Number of charging points | 15 | 24 | 10 | 4 | 12 | 65 |
To maintain a comprehensive approach, the green electricity supplier Ekwateur has been selected to power all the charging stations.
Project Economics
The total investment for these facilities is €976,050, broken down as follows:
- Supplies: €551,897
- Installation: €289,800
- Management, studies, commissioning: €70,183
- Enedis connection: €64,170
e-Totem charges per kWh of electricity delivered to the consumer. The rate is proportional to the charging speed: economic (3.7 kW), normal to boost (7.4 to 22 kW), and fast (100 to 180 kW). In addition, e-Totem charges a parking space occupancy fee once the charge is complete to encourage vehicle rotation and thus combat the monopolization of charging points.
The municipality is compensated by a fixed annual fee as well as a variable fee based on turnover.
Hérault Méditerranée Agglomeration in the Hérault
History
The company e-Totem responded to and won the call for private initiatives from the Hérault Méditerranée agglomeration community for the deployment, financing, operation, and maintenance of electric vehicle charging infrastructures for a period of 15 years.
The present project will enable the installation of 53 charging stations representing 214 unique charging points. The deployment of the facilities began in early 2025 and will be completed in the first quarter of 2026.

Our analysis
Risk overview
Construction risks
Risk of higher construction costs due to rising raw material prices
Mitigation methods
La fabrication des bornes est entièrement internalisée par e-Totem et la groupe Atomelec. L’installation des bornes est sous-traitée à des entreprises tierces spécialisées. Le déploiement de 3 stations de charge est déjà finalisé et n’a pas rencontré de problématique : 1 station sur le cap d’Agde et 2 sur Sainte-Maxime.
Construction risks
Risk of construction delays or failure to complete the work

Refinancing risk
Credit risk related to the company's ability to refinance and meet its debt obligations.
Mitigation methods
Le business plan des projets montre des taux de rendements attractifs sur la période d’exploitation, ce qui devrait faciliter l’obtention d’un financement externe à l’issue de la phase de construction. Le refinancement interviendra lorsque les bornes seront en exploitation et auront prouvé leur bon fonctionnement. La stratégie de refinancement pourra alors prendre plusieurs formes selon les besoins d’e-Totem : (1) vente des projets à des investisseurs externes, (2) sécurisation d’une dette long terme sur le véhicule e-Totem Infra Var Midi, ou (3) sécurisation d’un investissement mixte en dette et fonds propres tout en conservant une part majoritaire dans le véhicule.
Operating risks
Risk of poor project operation, faulty workmanship or machine breakdown resulting in poor performance.
Mitigation methods
e-Totem possède un important track-record de bornes installées et opérées avec succès. Une ligne de CAPEX destinée au remplacement de pièces défectueuses a été prévue dans le business plan.
