Costa Rica Launches its First Universal Charging Centre for Electric Vehicles

Costa Rica launched its inaugural universal charging centre for Electric Vehicles (EVs) in the vicinity of El Parque Empresarial Forum 1. This is the result of a public-private partnership between El Parque Empresarial Forum 1 and La Compañía Nacional de Fuerza y Luz (CNFL), which invested ¢80 million.

Due to its location, it is expected to benefit electric vehicle users who use route 27, as well as the western roads of the Greater Metropolitan Area. It is designed to be widely accessible, users can pay with any debit or credit card and drivers will be able to charge 80% of a vehicle in a maximum of 30 minutes.
