Electric vehicle charging: Enel's eco-friendly solutions
Italy is taking significant strides towards sustainable mobility with the help of the European Union, which has granted the country 191.5 billion euros for the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP). A substantial portion of this funding is allocated towards the ecological transition and sustainable mobility [1].
One of the key players in this transition is Enel, a multinational power company that offers a wide range of electric vehicle (EV) charging solutions. Enel's portfolio includes the Enel X Way, a public charging network with over 55,000 points, making it the largest in Italy [1].
Public Charging Tariffs in 2025 (Enel X Way)
Enel offers three main plans for public EV charging across its extensive network:
- Pay Per Use Basic: This plan is designed for occasional users, offering flexible no-subscription use. The price per kWh for AC charging is €0.69.
- Pay Per Use Premium: This plan caters to users who require the ability to reserve charging stations. Although it maintains the same kWh price as the Basic plan, it offers the convenience of reservation. The annual subscription fee is €25.
- Premium Plug & Go Super: This plan is tailored for frequent users seeking discounted kWh rates and unlimited reservations. The monthly subscription fee is €4, and the price per kWh for AC charging is €0.64. There is also a small idle fee of €0.05 per minute to discourage occupying the station after charging completes [1].
Home Charging Costs and Incentives
The cost of home charging depends on your domestic electricity tariff and consumption. However, installing a home EV charger is incentivized by Italian government schemes.
- Superbonus 110% (Relaunch Decree 34/2020): For 2022-2023, installation costs are deductible at 110%; this deduction is lowered to 70% in 2024 and 65% in 2025. The deduction is spread over four annual tax installments [1][3].
Home users with photovoltaic (solar) systems can further reduce costs by using self-generated renewable energy [1][3].
Additional Notes
Enel's public charging network offers flexibility for various user needs with a significant number of charging points and reservation functionality via premium plans. Energy provided for charging is sourced from renewable sources, supporting environmental benefits [1].
Enel also runs promotions and challenges to improve infrastructure reliability, but these do not directly impact tariff structures [5].
