108 Q-Free has recently won two tolling contracts with a combined order value of approximately US$4 million (NOK35 million).

The Expressway Authority of Thailand (EXAT) has awarded Q-Free Thailand a contract for tags. Q-Free CEO Håkon Volldal says the country’s planned expressway and motorway projects mean Thailand will become one of Q-Free's most important markets going forward.

In addition, Q-Free will deliver its single gantry multilane free flow solution to the province of Gipuzkoa in Spain, close to the French border. The project initially consists of eight charging points with options for extensions and service and maintenance and will be operational in the beginning of 2018. Q-Free says this will be the first multilane free flow system in Spain and hopes it will be the first of several other MLFF opportunities in Spain in the coming years.
