Laws and regulations

On 15 May 2020, a new law was introduced regarding requirements for charging stations for residential buildings and premises. Initially, new construction of homes and major renovations are covered. With more than ten parking spaces, there must be ducts for electrical cables, so-called empty pipes, to all parking spaces.

When new car parks are built, or major renovations are made other than homes, such as offices, parking garages or shopping centers, there must be ducts for electrical cables, so-called empty pipes, to every fifth parking space and a physical charging station.
