The charging network behind the electric transition is on a steep growth curve. A new Berg Insight report puts the number of connected EV charging points in Europe and North America at an estimated 12.9 million units in 2025 and forecasts growth of 23 percent per year to 35.6 million by 2030 — a near-tripling within five years. The figure is broader in scope than the 1.2 million public charge points Europe was recently reported to have passed, as Berg Insight counts connected points across both regions rather than public chargers in Europe alone.
Demand is moving in the same direction. InsideEVs reports that electric vehicle sales are up in nearly every EU country and could soon surpass hybrids. The rising share is being driven by expanding charging infrastructure, increasing vehicle range and lower battery costs — a self-reinforcing cycle in which every new charge point strengthens the case for the next electric purchase.
Eastern Europe is part of the buildout. New ultra-fast chargers have been put into operation on Croatian motorways, with the installation of 400 kW charging points for electric trucks singled out as particularly significant — trucks carry far larger battery capacities than passenger cars and need more powerful infrastructure to match. For regional freight operators, high-power charging of this kind is the piece of the puzzle that heavy-duty electric transport depends on.
For dealers and fleet buyers across the region, the practical effect is growing confidence in used-EV values and in electrifying commercial fleets. Anyone mapping the switch can track which electrified models are in supply — and at what prices — on the European marketplace WorldTrader24.de.
For individual buyers, every added charge point makes the leap to electric that much safer. Readers looking for a vehicle can find sensational cars at sensational conditions at WorldTrader24, Europe's marketplace with over 70,000 vehicles, where a broad selection of electrified models is ready for the road — and for the fast-growing network that keeps it charged.
