Germany needs at least 440 in the year 2030. 000, maybe even 843.000 publicly accessible charging points for electric cars. This is the result of a study by the National Control Center for Charging Infrastructure on behalf of the Federal Ministry of Transport.

The number depends on it how many private charging points there are then, how much the public charging stations are used and how often fast charging points are used. Today, according to the Federal Association of Energy and Water Management in Germany, there is only 33. 000 Publicly accessible charging points.

“Additional, public charging points required” According to the study, up to 000, 8 million electric and hybrid vehicles will be registered in Germany in ten years . The study authors expect that a charging point will then be available at 61 percent of the private parking spaces at the place of residence. At these 7 million private charging points 41 percent of the electricity would be refueled. “Additional, publicly accessible charging points are therefore absolutely necessary and cover approximately 32 percent of the amount of energy loaded. The remaining 27 percent are loaded at charging points on company parking lots. ”

One public charging point per 14 to 23 vehicles In cities, one public charging point per 14 vehicles is necessary, in the country one is enough for 23 vehicles. “A requirement of 420 was calculated. 000 Charging points where you park your car most often: on the side of the road or in public parking lots. ”

The Association of Municipal Enterprises (VKU) demanded easing of building law. The Building Electric Mobility Infrastructure Act must be designed more ambitiously and passed quickly. Chief Executive Ingbert Liebing demanded that pilot projects, such as inner-city quick charging hubs, have to be implemented quickly the cost-effectiveness of charging stations. Because this question has so far been completely unanswered. ”
