ČEZ Electromobility, the operator of the largest Czech EV charging network, presented its plan for further construction of public fast charging stations today. More than 40 such stations will be built thanks to a grant provided under the Connecting Europe Facility (CEF), an EU facility used by the European Commission to support the construction of charging stations along the TEN-T network of major roads to interconnect Europe.
