One of the factors hindering its departure Electric cars in Spain are the lack of sufficient charging points.. A year ago, the central government approved decree 29/2021, which incorporates many new features to accelerate sales in a country that follows the tail of Europe in this regard. One of the most important measures By January 1, 2023, certain public places and establishments will be required to have mandatory charging points for electric cars.. The goal is to reach 100,000 connections by then, which seems unlikely given there are currently less than 20,000 in Spain.
This decree requires the establishment of charging points for electric cars in Turkey. non-residential private buildings such as supermarket parking lots, hotels, restaurants, shopping malls or public garages and business centers.
The standard details how many ports each installation should have. For example, henon-residential private buildingsAs long as they are public and there are more than 20 parking spaces, they should have a charger for every 40 parking spaces.
When one of these facilities exceeds 1,000 parking spaces, one charging point will be mandatory for every 100 parking spaces.
In the case of General State Administration buildings (Government-affiliated) scale is even more demanding, as those with more than 500 seats must have one connection for every 20 seats.
gas stations too
highlights the section above. gas stations, which will be required to set up a fast charging point. Service stations selling more than 10 million liters of gasoline and diesel in 2019 must have at least one potential charging point equal to or greater than 150 Kw. There are more than 200 gas stations in Spain involved in this situation.
These service stations, which are smaller than the previous one but with more than 5 million liters of gasoline and diesel sales in 2019, will need to have a power charging point equal to or greater than 50 Kw. The same obligation will also have gas stations with sales of less than 5 million liters, but leading sales in the province, island or autonomous city in which they are located, as long as there are no gas stations with sales of more than five million. .
An interesting part of the decree in question is, Helpers available to perform these setups. Municipalities can deduct up to 50% of the Property Tax (IBI), up to 50% of the Municipal Quota for buildings affected by economic activity, and up to 90% of the Construction, Installation and Works Tax (ICIO).
Also installation of charging points to speed up the application exempt from previous building permit, business or activity, environmental or similar; A simple statement of responsibility from the owner will suffice.
The government will invest 525 million euros from the Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan (PRTR). Digitizing electricity distribution networks. This amount will be distributed among distribution companies in proportion to their representation until 2023. Potential beneficiaries will have to implement digital tools to improve consumer services, including electronic offices to manage files related to access and connection to self-consumption facilities and charging points. .
The goal of all this is to reach 100,000 charging points by January 2023, a goal that seems difficult to reach, considering the current figure has not reached 20% of the amount in question.
