Cyprus ministry plans to install 94 fast charging stations by 2028

The Cypriot Ministry of Transport has announced a 10 million euro strategic initiative to install 94 new fast-charging points for electric vehicles by 2028. Minister Evanthia Tsolaki confirmed the plan in an October 7, 2026, response to parliamentary questions from Prodromos Alambritis. The project aims to enhance infrastructure coverage across the country, serving both light and heavy vehicles through specifically designated charging hubs.

The deployment will be phased, with 16 light-vehicle points scheduled for 2026, followed by 48 light-vehicle and 12 heavy-vehicle points in 2027. The final remaining points are slated for 2028. The infrastructure includes 76 light-vehicle charging points (150 kW) and 18 for heavy vehicles (a mix of 350 kW and 200 kW). Key locations include urban centers like Nicosia, Larnaca, and Limassol, as well as Alambra, Kofinou, Evrychou, Saittas, Mandria, Polis Chrysochous, and Paralimni.

Funding for the 2026 and 2027 installations has already been secured within the budget of the Electrical and Mechanical Services Department. Currently, Cyprus operates 384 publicly accessible charging points across 221 stations, and this new project is designed to further support the national transition to sustainable transport and the reduction of carbon emissions.
