Number of charging points for e-cars increases to over 2,400

The number of charging stations for electric cars in Czechia increased by hundreds last year to over 2,400, according to data from large operators. Along with that, the number of recharges and energy consumption grew by tens of percent.

Despite the increase, the size of the infrastructure is still considerably smaller than in other countries, such as Germany or the Netherlands. However, given the low number of registered electric vehicles, experts say the domestic charging network is still sufficient.

Around 22,000 electric cars were registered in the country at the end of last year, along with tens of thousands of hybrids.
