Global infrastructure of slow and fast charging stations.
Global infrastructure of slow and fast charging stations. Ratio of EVs per charging points in Brazil and leading countries

Brazil's recharging infrastructure for electrified vehicles is growing, thanks to both public and private sector efforts. Companies like Volvo and BMW are actively building charging networks. The Brazilian Electricity Regulatory Agency (ANEEL) has also approved new regulations to facilitate the installation of EV charging stations across the country. However, the infrastructure is still developing, and there are challenges to meet the growing demand for public charging stations.


When compared to China, Brazil's EV market is still catching up. China has a much more extensive charging network and a larger market share for electric vehicles. Chinese EV manufacturers like BYD and others are also making significant inroads into the Brazilian market. Brazil has become the top importer of Chinese EVs, but it still lags behind in terms of infrastructure and market penetration.


In summary, while Brazil is making strides in developing its EV infrastructure, there is still a considerable gap compared to China and other leading markets. The country needs to continue investing in public charging stations and regulatory support to bridge this gap.


As of the latest data, Brazil has around 1,250 public charging stations. However, the exact distribution between fast and slow charging points isn't clearly specified in the available data.


In contrast, China leads the world with nearly 2.7 million publicly accessible electric vehicle chargers as of 2023. This includes 470,000 fast charging stations and 680,000 slow charging stations.


Other leading countries also have significant infrastructure:


• United States: Approx. 140,000 slow chargers and 43,000 fast chargers.


• Netherlands: Over 80,000 slow chargers and 4,000 fast charging stations.


• France: Around 50,000 slow chargers and 29,000 fast charging stations.


• Germany: About 40,000 slow chargers and 24,500 fast charging stations


• United Kingdom: Around 30,000 slow chargers and 5,600 fast charging stations


Brazil's charging infrastructure is still developing, and there's a considerable gap compared to these leading markets


Here's a comparison of the number of electric vehicles (EVs) per charging point in Brazil, and other leading countries:


• Brazil: Approximately 34 EVs per charging point.


• China: Around 7 EVs per charging point.


• Norway: About 34 EVs per charging point.


• United States: Roughly 10 EVs per charging point.


• Netherlands: Approximately 8 EVs per charging point.


• France: Around 10 EVs per charging point.


• Germany: About 8 EVs per charging point.


• United Kingdom: Roughly 10 EVs per charging point.


Brazil and Norway have a higher ratio of EVs per charging point compared to other leading countries, indicating a greater demand for charging infrastructure in these regions.
