Brazil electric vehicle infrastructure and condominium law

Overview

Discussions regarding electric vehicle infrastructure in Brazil have focused on the technical and legal challenges of integrating charging stations into residential and commercial buildings. In Salvador, the Bahia Forum on Electric Mobility and Insurance addressed risks related to engineering, insurance, and governance to ensure the safety of building structures during the implementation of charging technologies.

In the Distrito Federal, lawmakers in the Legislative Chamber (CLDF) have introduced Bill No. 2437/2026 (also referred to as Bill No. 2347/2026) to establish safety guidelines and operational rules for electric vehicle charging stations. Authored by deputies Pepa, Pastor Daniel de Castro, Dayse Amarílio, Roosevelt Vilela, and Wellington Luiz, the proposal aims to guarantee condominium residents the right to install individual chargers in private spaces at their own expense.

The legislation mandates that installations must comply with technical, safety, and fire prevention standards set by the Brazilian Association of Technical Standards (ABNT), local energy distributors, and the Military Fire Brigade of the Federal District. Requirements include ensuring compatibility with the building's electrical capacity, hiring qualified professionals with technical responsibility records, and implementing solutions for individual energy consumption measurement.

The bill also addresses charging points in public roads, parking lots, hotels, and commercial establishments. To protect consumers, the proposal requires operators to clearly display prices, station power, billing methods, and occupancy rules. Proponents argue these measures will promote the orderly expansion of electromobility infrastructure in line with urban and technological evolution.
