At long last! 🎉

Great news. I live in Portugal and while I can understand why they did what they did initially it didn’t evolve with best practice trends worldwide.

Finally. I was starting to get my face caved in from facepalming everytime I passed by the perfectly good but not working SC pictured above going to waste for years.

nice!

Did Portugals previous policy of requiring an energy contract mean that tourists with EV couldn’t charge them if they drove into Portugal ?

They can, but it’s a bit inconvenient. Tourists, for example, can use an app called Miio, which generates a virtual card that works at any public charger in Portugal (except for Superchargers). While the original law might seem unnecessary, its intent was to simplify charging by eliminating the need for multiple accounts with different providers. Instead, users can access various chargers through a single system. Nice in theory, but troublesome in real life.

not troublesome at all, actually made it much simpler...the point is that the governance gave the billing pipeline to one company called MOBI.E in the hope to have cheaper and simpler control, but that company jacked the prices sooooo much that users ended up with a bill that more than doubled
