The public charging infrastructure in Europe continues to grow rapidly - by 35 percent in 2020 compared to the previous year.

Among the top 5 countries, the Netherlands leads the way with more than 66,600 public charging points. France overtakes Germany with more than 46,000 charging points installed (2020: around 44,700), followed by the UK. This is according to data from the European Alternative Fuels Observatory (EAFO). Private wallboxes are also more in demand than ever, so that funding in Germany has been increased for the second time in a very short period. The leading charging infrastructure companies will present themselves at Power2Drive Europe taking place from July 21 to 23, 2021 at Messe München as part of The smarter E Europe.
