During the construction of new buildings, it is advisable to install a charging station when requested by electric vehicle owners, a stance highlighted by the Moscow Architecture Committee’s chair, Yuliana Knyazhevskaya, as reported by TASS. This recommendation reflects a broader push to weave EV charging into urban development plans from the ground up, making charging access a standard feature rather than a retrofit after construction.
Specifically, the proposal calls for requirements that mandate the deployment of charging infrastructure in local areas whenever feasible. The goal is to extend coverage to within-block driveways, detached and built-up garages, road networks, car parks, and multi-storey buildings. It also envisions charging options in the parking areas of non-residential buildings, automotive enterprises, and preventive parking facilities. These measures would ensure that charging is readily available across both residential and commercial zones (citation: TASS, Moscow Architecture Committee) and would support a smoother transition to electric mobility for residents and visitors alike.
In parallel, national leaders have signaled a strong outlook for electric transport. The president has stated ambitious production targets and underscored a positive trajectory for the sector, with a focus on EVs growing alongside other advanced propulsion systems. The aim is to position the country as a serious player in electrification, with a diversified approach that includes hydrogen, hybrid, and electric powertrains. This broader strategy aims to strengthen domestic capabilities while expanding export potential, reinforcing the appeal of clean energy transportation across cities and regions (citation: official statements).
Industry ministries are also examining localization thresholds for electric vehicles that qualify for government support. The evaluation considers existing industrial development plans, strategic concepts, and obligations under private investment agreements. By aligning policy levers with local manufacturing capacity, the government intends to encourage domestic production while maintaining incentives that accelerate market adoption for consumers and fleets alike (citation: Ministry of Industry and Trade documents).
Looking at the broader market, analysts continue to track the most popular electric vehicles within the region and the ways in which policy and infrastructure influence consumer choices. The evolving landscape suggests that buyers are increasingly prioritizing access to reliable charging, cost-competitive operation, and the assurance that a robust network will support daily commutes as well as longer trips. These trends underscore the importance of coordinated planning between builders, property managers, and policymakers to ensure that charging becomes a natural, integrated part of modern life (citation: market analyses and industry briefings).
