Directive (EU) 2024/1275 on building energy performance introduces progressive requirements to facilitate charging. Directives require national transposition: check current Italian provisions, effective dates and exceptions before designing works.
What it regulates
- Minimum point numbers in specified situations.
- Pre-cabling and conduits for parking spaces.
- New buildings and major renovations.
- Non-residential buildings with car parks of specified sizes.
- Progressive obligations for public buildings.
Why reading the directive alone is insufficient
EU text sets targets and deadlines, but Italian measures define actual application, procedures, exceptions and coordination with building and technical rules.
Before starting work
- Check planning permission and local rules.
- Check available power and electrical installation.
- Assess cable routes and shared spaces.
- Consider fire prevention where applicable.
- Use qualified designers and installers.
