Over the next five years, Spain is expected to see significant growth in the electric vehicle charging equipment market. According to expert estimates, industry-wide revenue could reach €3.5 billion by 2030. This forecast is included in an analytical report prepared by the Association for the Development of Electric Mobility (Aedive).
Experts note that the production of charging devices in the country could more than double. While over 326,000 units were produced in 2024, this figure may exceed 663,000 by the end of the decade. Such growth is expected to result in a substantial increase in revenues for companies operating in this sector.
As part of the implementation of the National Integrated Energy and Climate Plan (PNIEC), around €60 billion is set to be invested by 2030. According to Aedive, the development of electric transport and related services alone could create or maintain approximately 550,000 jobs and contribute over €110 billion to the country’s economy.
Market participants emphasize the importance of implementing government programs to support electric vehicle purchases and the installation of charging stations. Industry representatives believe that Spain now has a chance to take a leading position in electric transport development in Europe. To achieve this, they say, clear and stable rules are needed, along with effective tax and regulatory tools.
The companies Ingeteam, Veltium, V2C, and Circontrol, all members of the Aedive association, also emphasized the need to promote innovation and exports. Executives from these firms believe that supporting talent and developing the entire production chain will strengthen the country’s position in the international market.
At the same time, business representatives point to competition from Chinese manufacturers. According to them, ensuring equal conditions for all participants in the European market is vital to protect the national industry.
Another topic of discussion was the future of urban spaces. Experts suggest expanding the network of low-power charging stations on streets and creating fast-charging stations. In addition, they support introducing incentives for installing charging devices in new residential complexes and garages.
According to experts, by 2030, fully electrified streets could appear in Spanish cities, allowing drivers to charge their vehicles overnight at affordable rates. Industry representatives are calling on municipalities and regional authorities to support such initiatives to speed up the transition to eco-friendly transport.
