Interest in electric cars continues to grow in Czechia

Interest in electric vehicles is continuing to grow in Czechia, according to official statistics from large charging station operators cited by the Czech News Agency. The use of charging stations, in terms of overall consumption and the number of recharges, increased by over ten percent year-on-year, and in some cases by more than fifty percent. Energy giant ČEZ reported that the consumption now is around five times what it was five years ago.

There were roughly 1,360 charging stations for electric cars in the Czech Republic at the end of last year, and during the first half of this year, hundreds of new ones were added to the network.
