Carinthia than in the entire prior year; there were around
5,450 new registrations throughout Austria in 2017. In
addition to the rapidly increasing availability of e-vehicles
and the better developed charging infrastructure with
higher output capacities, financial assistance also
constitutes an incentive to switch to e-mobility. As part of
“Carinthia’s energy future”, KELAG offers its customers
attractive financial assistance for e-vehicles and recharging
units. KELAG provides 187 charging stations at 75 locations
in Carinthia, at which e-vehicle drivers can fill up their
vehicles with electricity from 100% hydroelectric power
and green energy. KELAG automotive electricity customers
thus have access to all charging points of the easily largest
recharging network in Austria.

Moreover, e-vehicle drivers have had access to all the
information they need for entering the world of e-mobility
in the new KELAG competence centre for e-mobility since
February 2017. The offerings range from public to private
charging infrastructure, that is from rapid-charging stations
through to private recharging units for the garage in single
family detached homes. The competence centre also tests
e-vehicles and e-scooters as well as e-bicycles. The
objective of the company is to provide customers practical
support, give them advice on e-mobility independent of
brands and offer them KELAG’s attractive product portfolio.
