Electric cars are slowly gaining popularity in Lithuania, and one of the main reasons is the lack of electric car charging stations, which is why innovative companies are taking the initiative.

Electric cars are slowly gaining popularity in Lithuania, and one of the main reasons is the lack of electric car charging stations, which is why innovative companies are taking the initiative. This week, a new electric car charging station opened in Vilnius, in the Business Triangle, next to the EIKA Business Center..
Currently, there are just over ten public charging points for electric vehicles in the capital. In order to promote the use of electric vehicles in Lithuania, it is necessary to ensure the development of charging station infrastructure. In Lithuania, state institutions are slow to invest in the development of stations, so this task is usually undertaken by private investors. The installation of a new electric vehicle charging station in the capital was financed by the real estate developer Eika. This is part of the program of the company Žalias biuras, which encourages rational and responsible use of energy, waste sorting and environmental protection.
“We are proactive and innovative, environmental protection is important to us, so we have installed an electric car charging station next to the EIKA Business Center. This is one of the first public stations in Lithuania, the services of which can be used free of charge by tenants and guests of the business center. They can charge their electric car during work, and guests can charge their electric car when they arrive for a meeting,” says Giedrius Brūzgė, Director of the Asset Management Department of the company “Eika”. “The new station is adapted to all types of electric cars, and a full charge of an electric car battery takes about 5-6 hours.”
Two places for charging electric cars have been installed next to the EIKA Business Center, one of which is intended for the BMW i3 electric car of the car-sharing company CityBee.
“We have no doubt that electric cars will replace gasoline and diesel cars in Lithuania in the near future – all that is needed is a convenient infrastructure of charging stations. Cars or electric cars spend most of their time parked outside offices during the day and at home in the evening, so it is necessary to ensure that consumers have the opportunity to charge their electric cars here. We are very pleased with the initiative of the company “Eika”. We hope that electric car charging stations will soon appear near other business centers in the capital,” said Aurimas Drūtys, director of the car-sharing service “CityBee”.
