Cork City to gain 700 public charge points by 2030

Across Cork City in Ireland, an ambitious €22m strategy will see almost 700 publicly available EV chargers installed at new charging stations across Cork City in Ireland by 2030.

Cork City councillors agreed on the plan at the last city council meeting, which encompasses 244 neighbourhood charging stations and 65 community charging stations, each with the capacity to charge several cars simultaneously.

The first tranche of 44 neighbourhood and 26 community charging stations is to be delivered by 2025, requiring an investment of between €4m to €5.5m.

The aim for the second phase, which will require an investment of another €11.5m to €17m, is to install 200 normal charging and 39 fast charging pools by 2030, providing between 550 and 700 individual charging points.
