You’ll be able to drive across Hungary with an electric car by 2021

National Utilities Ltd. (Nemzeti Közművek) is aiming to establish so many charging stations that within 1.5 years, people will be able to drive across Hungary with their electric cars. In order to achieve this goal, NKM is making huge investments and is partnering up with several other companies.

Even though electric cars are the future, very few people choose these cars in Hungary. This is due not only to their price but their relatively limited range as well as the insufficient amount of charging stations that are available in Hungary, hvg reports.

Világgazdaság.hu recently conducted an interview with Gábor Hiezl, CEO of National Utilities Ltd., who said that the company aimed to speed up the spread of electro-mobility in Hungary.

National Utilities Ltd. is currently operating 100 public charging stations in Hungary, 10% of which are so-called fast chargers. The company aims to build as many chargers as it takes for people to be able to drive comfortably across the whole country with their electric vehicles. This will be possible if there will be chargers every 80-100 km.
