Charging an Electric Car in Wrocław – stations, prices and parking with chargers in 2025

Wrocław now operates over 250 public electric-vehicle charging points, and the network grows every year. In this guide, you’ll find the key information: where to charge in the city centre and near major landmarks, what the typical charging prices are in 2025, how the municipal “Park & Charge” stations work, and which locations are the most convenient for everyday parking.

Where can you charge an electric car in Wrocław?

The EV charging infrastructure in Wrocław is developing rapidly. By the end of the previous year, there were already more than 249 publicly accessible charging points installed by private operators, and the city is launching new stations on municipal land. In 2025, drivers can choose between several main types of locations:

• Public AC stations (11–22 kW) – ideal for longer stops: work, cinema, shopping.
• Public DC stations (50–150+ kW) – fast charging on the go; shorter time, higher price.
• Municipal “Park & Charge” stations – new chargers on city-owned car parks, approx. 11 kW AC.
• Chargers at shopping centres – AC and DC options from major operators, convenient during shopping.
• Chargers at hotels and office buildings – perfect for overnight stays or work; sometimes open to the public.

Charging stations in the city centre and near key locations

The most practical spots in Wrocław are clustered around areas drivers visit most often:

• Old Town and Market Square – chargers located in underground car parks at Nowy Targ and the NFM complex.
• Main Railway & Bus Station (PKP/PKS) – charging points on nearby station car parks and inside the adjacent shopping mall.
• Shopping centres – Magnolia Park, Wroclavia, Pasaż Grunwaldzki and others offer both AC and DC chargers.
• Main access roads and fuel stations – fast DC charging for transit drivers.

You can check real-time charger availability through operator apps or the city’s electromobility map.

Electric-car charging prices in Wrocław (2025)

Prices vary depending on station type, power output and operator. Rates change dynamically, so it’s always worth checking the app before you start charging. Below are typical price ranges for the 2025 market:

Many operators also offer subscription plans that reduce the kWh price if you charge regularly at public stations.

Municipal “Park & Charge” stations

A recent addition to Wrocław’s infrastructure are the municipal charging stations installed in city-owned car parks. They are being launched in stages and are designed for drivers who leave their cars for several hours or the whole day.

What you should know:

• Approx. 11 kW (AC) – suitable for multi-hour parking.
• Payment via app – you pay per kWh + any applicable parking fee.
• Spaces reserved for EVs only – parking allowed exclusively while charging.
• Night-time rules – some stations offer simplified night tariffs; depends on the location.

Note: the charging fee at a municipal station does not replace the parking fee required in SPP/ŚSPP zones. Always check the rules of the specific zone.

Parking with chargers – how to pick the best option?

Choosing a charging spot depends mainly on how much time you have:

• Up to 1 hour – fast DC stations along major roads and at fuel stations.
• 2–4 hours – AC chargers at shopping centres, NFM and underground car parks in the centre.
• All day – municipal “Park & Charge” stations, shopping centres or hotels.

Popular charging locations (practical list):

• Shopping centres – ideal for shopping and quick meals.
• NFM and Nowy Targ car parks – closest to the Market Square.
• Road junctions and fuel stations – best for transit charging.

Tip: if chargers in the centre are busy, you’ll usually find a free one faster at a large shopping mall, a multi-storey car park or on the main roads leading into the city.

How to find the nearest charger in Wrocław?

The most reliable method is using electromobility apps and maps that show real-time availability and prices. Drivers most often rely on:

• Operator apps – details on pricing, power output and free spots.
• Nationwide EV maps – filter by power, plug type and operator.
• City tools – the “electromobility” layer in municipal maps.

How to pay for charging and what to remember?

In Wrocław, charging is usually cashless:

• via the operator’s mobile app,
• with an RFID card issued by the operator,
• and at selected stations – contactless payment.

Key rules:

• Always check the price before starting a session – especially at fast DC stations.
• Don’t block the charger once you’re done – many operators charge idle fees.
• Plan ahead – during peak hours, centre-city chargers may be occupied.
• Pay attention to signage – parking a combustion car on an EV spot may result in a fine.

Note: when finishing a session at a DC charger, move your car right away – idle fees can be charged per additional minute.

Summary – how to charge an electric car smartly in Wrocław?

• In the city centre, AC chargers in underground car parks and at shopping centres work best.
• For quick top-ups, choose DC chargers along the main routes.
• Municipal “Park & Charge” stations are ideal for longer parking.
• Always check prices and availability – in 2025, they change dynamically.
• Don’t block charging points – enforcement is increasing.

Thanks to its expanding public network and municipal “Park & Charge” programme, Wrocław is now one of the most EV-friendly cities in Poland. In 2025, charging is convenient, predictable and often available exactly where drivers leave their cars every day.
