Residents of buildings will be able to charge their electric cars at home

Those who have an electric car and live in an apartment in São Paulo, already breathe a sigh of relief with the law approved now that allows the installation of individual or collective charging points next to parking spaces.

• New São Paulo law prohibits condominiums from barring the installation of electric chargers for no reason
• Electric car charger is grounds for impeachment, fire risk and new regulations
• Porsche’s new wireless charger is not for the cell phone, but for the car itself

There are, of course, several requirements to be followed. It is forbidden to use a portable charger that plugs directly into the outlet, as they are more subject to the risk of fire, and the condominium may also have to agree with the electricity distribution company to adapt the building’s electrical installation to the amperage requirements to power the chargers.

Other Brazilian cities are anxiously awaiting the same legislation.
