Special Urban Development Plan for the Implementation of Motor Vehicle Supply Stations in the City of Barcelona
The Special Urban Development Plan for the Implementation of Motor Vehicle Supply Stations in the City of Barcelona focuses on regulating specific installations related to electric and hybrid vehicles. The plan includes provisions for recharging or exchanging batteries in car parks with public access, designating them as Electrolineras. These stations are dedicated to providing electric recharging services for sale to the public for electric or hybrid vehicles. Additionally, the plan addresses battery exchange points, designed for removable batteries of electric vehicles, primarily catering to bicycles, motorbikes, quadricycles, or similar modes of transport, without the necessity of direct vehicle access within the installation.
