Andalucía Struggles to Keep Up with Spain's Electromobility Goals

Andalucía remains at the bottom in Spain regarding electromobility, with penetration rates and charging infrastructure significantly below the national average. According to the latest Electromobility Barometer from the Spanish Association of Automobile and Truck Manufacturers (Anfac), the region scored 16 out of 100, lagging well behind the national average of 21.2, and far behind leading regions such as Madrid and Navarra.

With only 49,000 electrified vehicles, representing 8% of Spain's total, Andalucía's vehicle electrification score is 22.6 out of 100. Its public charging infrastructure score is even weaker, at 9.3 out of 100. Although Spain's overall electromobility index rose thanks to 4,215 new public chargers added in the third quarter of 2025, 22% of those chargers remain non-operational. Nationally, the country aims to have 5.5 million electric cars and 340,000 public chargers by 2030 to meet the EU’s target of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by at least 55% by 2030.

In response, the Junta de Andalucía has increased the budget for the Moves III program by €13.36 million to incentivize electric vehicle purchases and assist those on subsidy waiting lists, attempting to accelerate regional progress. Despite these efforts, Andalucía’s slow advancement highlights the challenges the region faces in catching up with national and European electromobility goals.

This slow pace threatens Spain’s ability to meet the EU’s ambitious decarbonization targets for road transport, with regional disparities posing a significant hurdle in the national transition towards electric mobility.
