Success criteria for electromobility in Bavaria

The expansion of the charging infrastructure is a basic prerequisite for the market ramp-up of electromobility. Although the expansion is progressing steadily and there has been a significant increase in fast charging stations, it is often said that the charging infrastructure is lagging behind the rapid growth in electric vehicles.

Is this really true, or are not all charging options being used equally? Where does it make sense to expand the charging infrastructure? How can local authorities and private charging station operators optimize the publicly accessible charging infrastructure so that their services are used accordingly?

The white paper "What makes charging locations attractive?" identifies the success criteria for the public charging infrastructure in Bavaria and derives recommendations for further expansion. In addition, results from user surveys and empirical values from charging station operators provide interesting insights into the popularity and success of different charging locations.
