Russia has launched preferential loans for the construction of electric vehicle charging stations.

      A new program to support electric vehicle infrastructure has been launched in the country. This was announced by Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin. It concerns preferential loans for investors involved in creating direct-current (DC) charging hubs for electric vehicles.

      According to Rossiyskaya Gazeta, the loans will be issued by the VEB.RF corporation. Thanks to federal subsidies, the rate for investors will be 8% per annum, and the loan term up to five years. The funds can be used to purchase or lease land, buy equipment, deliver, install and connect hubs to power grids.

      Under the program, each charging hub must have at least 10 charging points so that several cars can be charged simultaneously. Another mandatory requirement is the use of only Russian equipment and software.

      In 2026, 150 million rubles will be allocated from the federal budget to support such projects. The volume of funding may be increased later if the program proves to be in demand.

      The government expects that over time, along Russian roads there will appear not only ordinary filling stations but also modern charging complexes for electric vehicles — with shops and services for drivers.
