The National Commission for Markets and Competition (CNMC) wants to know what prevents the installation of more places to charge electric cars. For this purpose, it launched a public consultation so that companies, associations, administrations and users of this type of vehicle could send their comments and contributions about the problems they find in their activity. The public consultation will be open until September 29.
The competition reminds that the National Integrated Energy and Climate Plan (PNIEC) plans to reach 28% of the contribution from renewable energy in the transport sector in 2030, and aims to reach 540,000 plug-in electric vehicles in 2025 and five million in 2030. However, the charging network currently consists of around 18,000 public access points, far from what was planned to be able to meet the targets set in PNIEC.
The analysis of the responses received will help the regulator to identify what can be improved, which will be reflected in a series of proposals for the reform of the current regulations for infrastructures for electric vehicle.
The consultation is part of a study that the CNMC began in February on the progress of implementation at the chargers, after it found that there were obstacles “hindering their development” which the watchdog is analyzing. As Competition points out, “establishing a network of interconnected and high-quality charging stations is key to facilitating the transition to electric vehicles […]. Competition is an incentive for the speed of deployment and expansion of the network”, which is why he wants to look for ways to encourage it.
Interested parties can access the consultation questionnaire via the regulator’s website.
