There are more than 4,000 electric transport users in Belarus, more than 600 charging stations have been built, and another 60 stations will appear in 2023. In order to develop electric transport in the country, several policy documents are being implemented:

• Decree of the President of the Republic of Belarus dated March 12, 2020 № 92 «On encouraging the use of electric vehicles», aimed at increasing the use of electric vehicles, developing charging infrastructure and stimulating the creation of new industries;
• The program for the development of electric transport in the Republic of Belarus for 2021–2025, containing specific measures to fulfill the tasks of Decree № 92.

The main areas of activity for the development of electric transport today include: setting up the production of components for electric transport in the country, developing an additional set of incentive measures in order to increase the financial attractiveness of purchasing electric transport for commercial purposes, creating new supercharging complexes in the regions, increasing the number of public electric transport and others.

The development of electric transport makes an important contribution to the achievement by the Republic of Belarus of Sustainable Development Goals 12, 13 and other SDGs.
