Number of EV chargers in S Korea hits 240,000 amid growing popularity: Data
The number of chargers for electric vehicles in South Korea has surpassed 2,40,000, data showed on Sunday, amid the growing popularity of eco-friendly cars in the country.
Fast chargers accounted for 10.6 per cent of the 2,40,695 installed electric vehicle charging stations in South Korea, Representative Park Sang-hyunk of the main opposition Democratic Party said, citing data compiled by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, and the Ministry of Environment in May.
Considering chargers that are not registered with the authorities, the actual number of available charging stations could be higher than reported.
