Public charging in Spain grows 6.74% from the end of 2025, with advances above 23% in higher-power infrastructures.
When we want to travel with an electric car, we worry about whether we will find enough public charging points in Spain. But from AEDIVE comes very good news: the operating network has expanded and now offers more than 53,300 points across the country (as of 1/10/26).
On the other hand, it is important to bear in mind the power of the charging points, because that will determine whether one can undertake a long trip without hiccups, and the locations themselves, to plan accordingly.
Undoubtedly, electric mobility is evolving in the country, since high-power recharges are the ones that have grown the most and the points have multiplied across the national geography, although 60% are located in Madrid, Barcelona and Valencia.
It is important to mention that AEDIVE has clarified that the counted points come from a census in which data cross-checking with the operators was performed and that only those that are operational at the time of the count are taken into account.
In this article there is a analysis of the data published by AEDIVE and it examines what progression the charging system has made, taking into account the main parameters: number of new operational points, their power, location, etc.
Public charging in Spain soars
The network of public charging infrastructure grows 6.74% up to October 1, compared to the end of 2025, reaching 53,373 operational points, according to the data published this Monday by the Business Association for the Development and Promotion of Electric Mobility (Aedive).
By type of public charging infrastructure, points above 350 kW (ultra-fast) rose 23.32%; those between 150 and 350 kW posted a 27.60% advance and those between 50 and 150 kW increased by 9.46%.
Geographically, Catalonia, Madrid, Andalusia and the Valencian Community account for about 60% of the country’s public charging points.
Aedive notes that it has renewed its reporting methodology by incorporating the European market reference databases and big data analysis, which allows validating and cross-referencing all the aggregated information from the ecosystem of charging point operators (CPO, in English) associated.
Furthermore, it notes that only points active at the moment of data collection will be counted, which may cause fluctuations due to inactive points, relocations to other power ranges and operator decisions.
