STOCKS NEWS EUROPE-Bollore up after London charging station deal

Shares in Bollore (Other OTC: BOIVF - news) gain 3 percent, the top gainers on France's broad SBF 120 index, after the French industrial company is selected by Transport for London to develop and manage a network of 1,400 recharging points for electric vehicles.

The Bollore family firm, which is behind the Autolib electric car-sharing scheme launched in Paris in 2011, said in a statement it will manage London's network starting mid-2014. No financial details were provided.

"Good contract, which should give the company's technology a boost in visibility," a Paris-based trader says.
