This report, compiled by Sweco for Region Jämtland Härjedalen, analyzes the current state and responsibility for accessible electric vehicle charging infrastructure in Sweden. It highlights significant gaps in accessibility at public charging stations, affecting not only people with disabilities but also the elderly, pregnant women, and those with temporary impairments. The report underscores the need for clear regulatory standards and unified responsibility to ensure universally accessible charging facilities.

ACEA's report highlights the urgent need for accelerated EV charger installation across the EU, with 410,000 new points required annually to reach the 2030 target of 3.5 million. Currently, the EU has 632,423 public charging points, heavily concentrated in just three countries. The report underscores the disparity in infrastructure distribution and calls for rapid implementation of policies to boost charger availability and support the EU's CO2 reduction goals.

The "Rural EV Toolkit Version 2" released in May 2023 by the U.S. Department of Transportation provides comprehensive guidance for planning and funding rural electric mobility infrastructure. It covers the basics of electric mobility, including types of electric vehicles (EVs) and charging infrastructure. The toolkit addresses benefits and implementation challenges of rural electrification, explores partnership opportunities, and outlines principles for planning and implementing EV infrastructure. It also provides an extensive overview of funding and financing options, federal programs, and additional resources for successful project execution.

This report highlights the key findings and recommendations from the Sustainable Transport Forum’s ‘public authorities’ (STF-PA) subgroup survey, conducted from September to December 2021, on the procedures of public authorities, and experiences of market participants with permitting and grid connection procedures for recharging infrastructure.

This document, prepared by the Sustainable Transport Forum (STF) under the leadership of the European Commission and supported by a group of European organisations, highlights key challenges and best practices related to the deployment of BEVs in covered parking areas. It also provides a set of recommendations for public authorities and private stakeholders to facilitate the adoption of BEVs in covered parking lots.

This publication is a report by the Sustainable Transport Forum (STF), the European Commission´s expert group on alternative fuels infrastructure. The report was developed by the STF sub-group on public authorities with the assistance of ChargeUp Europe – the association at the EU level representing the EV charging industry which works towards the rapid deployment of charging infrastructure across Europe.

This document is the primary deliverable of the Sustainable Transport Forum's Sub-Group 3, that focuses on the best practices of public authorities in facilitating the deployment of recharging infrastructure. Task force 3 (TF3) within Sub-Group 3 is entrusted with providing recommendations aimed at aiding public authorities in supporting the expansion of recharging infrastructure tailored for specialised and captive fleets.

The following guidelines are primarily aimed for public authorities and intend to provide recommendations and examples of good practices that these authorities can consider when setting up tenders for publicly accessible EV recharging infrastructure.
