Summary

The Act of 11 January 2018 on Electromobility and Alternative Fuels sets out Poland’s legal framework for the development and operation of infrastructure for alternative fuels in transport — including electric charging stations and other low‑emission vehicle fuels — by defining technical requirements, obligations for public authorities to develop this infrastructure, information duties, the conditions for clean transport zones in municipalities, and the national policy framework for alternative fuel infrastructure, in order to implement key EU directives on clean transport and energy efficiency.

The Act of 21 November 2024 (Poz. 1853) amended this law to update and strengthen electromobility provisions, including: raising and clarifying targets for the share of electric vehicles in the fleets of central and local public bodies (e.g., requiring at least 22 % electric vehicles in relevant government and municipal fleets), restructuring or repealing certain older requirements, and introducing new obligations for municipalities to deploy zero‑emission or biomethane‑powered buses in public transport, as well as amendments to the rules for establishing clean transport zones (including automatic creation where air pollution thresholds are exceeded). It also updated annual reporting duties on fleet electrification
