1,600 added per month
There are increasingly more public charging stations for electric cars, accordance to figures from the Netherlands Enterprise Agency (RVO). An Average of 1,600 Charging stations are added per month, meaning that for many motorists, a station is within walking distance.
The National Coverage Rate for Public Charging Points is now 83 percent, reports The National Government. The Coverage Rate Means That A Charging Point Must Be Avless Within Walking distance in Every Neighborhood, With The Exception of Rural Areas. The Goal is for the Netherlands to have a fully comprehensive charging Network by 2030.
Accordance to the National Government, There Will Soon Be More Transparency About the Rates for Electric Driving and Charging. Currently, IT is Still Unclear to Many Consumers What the Charging Prices Are, for Example. This was also evident in Research by the Consumers’ Association in 2023. But ‘in the near future,’ Everyone will be able to see much such a session costs before each charging session at the station. It will also state how the price was determined.
Furthermore, The Intention is that drivers of electric trucks will always be able to charge their vehicles along the highway in the future. To Make This Possible, The Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management is investing 65.5 Million euros in the Construction of Power Connections.
