Abstract: The development of electric mobility is a priority within the framework of policies to decarbonise the economy. This study analyses, from a competition and better regulation perspective, the activities related to charging services at publicly accessible charging points, in order to identify areas where there is scope to promote competition and efficiency in the sector. To make proposals for improvement, the study recommends the following. First, to adopt efficient and pro-competitive regulations for the deployment of charging infrastructure. Second, to reduce bureaucratic burdens to what is strictly necessary. Third, to promote competition and efficiency in administrative concessions for the installation of charging points. Fourth, to promote transparency and consumer choice. Fifth, to design deployment obligations and state aid in a pro-competitive manner. Sixth, to maintain enhanced monitoring of the sector and consider the adoption of new market investigation tools.
