Europe new law

The European Union has approved a new law to enhance electric vehicle (EV) infrastructure. The law sets specific targets for the installation of fast-recharging stations along major highways, making it easier for EV owners to travel across the EU. It also requires the construction of chargers for heavy-duty vehicles and hydrogen refueling stations by 2030. Additionally, the law aims to simplify payment methods for EV charging, allowing drivers to use card payments or contactless devices without subscriptions or apps. The law will come into effect after being published in the EU's official journal and will apply six months later.
