Show installation and decommissioning of publicly accessible charging points

If you put publicly accessible normal and fast charging points into or out of operation, you must notify the Federal Network Agency. You must also notify the Agency if you make private charging points public or hand over your charging points to another operator.

If you put publicly accessible normal and fast charging points for electric vehicles into operation or take them out of operation, you must notify the Federal Network Agency. You must also notify the Federal Network Agency if you make private charging points public or hand over your publicly accessible charging points to another operator.

The obligation to notify applies to all normal charging points that were put into operation after 17.03.2016 and to all fast charging points.

Normal charging points have a maximum charging capacity of 22 kilowatts.
Fast charging points have a charging capacity of more than 22 kilowatts.

A charging point is publicly accessible if it is located either on a public road or on private land and the parking space belonging to the charging point can be used by others.

Operators of fast-charging points must also provide evidence of compliance with the technical requirements of the ordinance by enclosing a commissioning report signed by a qualified electrician.

You are planning to install a publicly accessible charging point for electric vehicles or are already operating publicly accessible normal or fast charging points.
