Spain accelerates electric mobility: Advances in infrastructure, innovation and public policies

2025 is shaping up to be a key year for the consolidation of electric mobility in Spain and Europe. With a constant growth in the charging infrastructure, technological advances in batteries and a greater involvement of public administrations, the path towards the decarbonisation of transport is progressing at a steady pace. Next, we review the most recent milestones that will mark the future of the electric vehicle (VE).

Expanding recharge infrastructure

One of the main challenges for electric mobility has been the availability of accessible and efficient charging points. According to recent data from AEDIVE (Business Association for the Development and Promotion of Electric Mobility), Spain reached 40,438 public charging points in 2024, which represents a growth of 33.2% compared to the previous year.

Innovative initiatives in the recharging of electric vehicles

• Moeve reinvents service stations

The former Cepsa, now Moeve, has presented a new network of multi-energy stations that integrate ultra-fast charging points of up to 350kW, powered by renewable energy. These stations are designed to improve the user experience, with rest areas, Wi-Fi connection and digitized payment systems.

• Two-way charging and intelligent energy management

Bidirectional charging (V2G) technology continues to gain ground. This innovation allows electric cars not only to be charged, but also to return energy to the grid in times of high demand, becoming a key piece for the electrical system of the future.

Government impulse and strategic collaborations

To ensure the success of the transition to electric mobility, the support of public administrations and collaboration between the private and government sectors are essential.

• “Statement of Casa Seat” for electric mobility

In an unprecedented agreement, the presidents of Catalonia, Valencian Community and Navarre joined the CEO of Seat and Cupra to sign a declaration of commitment to electric mobility. This pact contemplates incentives for the purchase of electric vehicles, the deployment of more charging points and the electrification of public fleets.

• Madrid encourages the flattening of polluting vehicles

As part of the Mueve Madrid Plan, the City Council offers 1,000 euros or a free transport subscription to those who deliver a vehicle without an environmental label for its definitive withdrawal. Subsidies of up to 2,000 euros have also been announced for the purchase of cars with ECO or Zero Emissions label, as well as aid for the acquisition of electric bicycles and mopeds.

• Catalonia is committed to the electrification of its car park

The Generalitat has presented a plan of 1,400 million euros to multiply the charging infrastructure by five, going from 9,000 to 45,000 points in five years. In addition, 90% of the administration’s fleet is expected to be electrified by 2030.

Sustainability and new solutions for electric transport

Electric mobility not only seeks to reduce CO2 emissions, but also to optimize energy efficiency and transport sustainability.

The rise of Low Emission Zones (ZBE)

Large cities continue to advance in the implementation of Low Emission Zones, restricting access to polluting vehicles and promoting sustainable mobility. By 2025, it is expected that more than 150 municipalities in Spain will have active ZBE, with measures to favour the use of electric vehicles and clean public transport.

Conclusion: An electric and unstoppable future

Electric mobility in Spain is undergoing an unprecedented transformation. Thanks to the expansion of the charging infrastructure, technological innovations and the commitment of administrations and companies, more and more drivers are opting for electric vehicles as a real and sustainable alternative.
