Sales of electric vehicles in Germany may have stalled of late but the Federal Network Agency says that on March 1, 2024 Germany had 128,517 charging points with a capacity of 4.52 gigawatts.
That compares to 92,886 on that date in 2023, representing an increase of 38 percent. The region of Brandeburg and the German capital Berlin recorded increases of 72 and 62 percent respectively.
The regional German states with the most charging points are Bavaria (26,073), North Rhine-Westphalia (23,620) and Baden-Württemberg (22,910). Together, they have more than half of all the charging stations in the country. The leading provider was EnBW followed by E.On and Tesla.
Germany is aiming to have one million charging point in operation by 2030.
