At issue is an amendment made to the General Regulation for Urban Buildings and a new provision in the Legal Regime for Electric Mobility.
According to Expresso, taking into account the new “rules”, all commercial and service buildings with more than 20 parking spaces must provide at least two charging stations for electric cars by December 31, 2024.
The law, for buildings which have already been built or with licensing approved before 2023, authorises the installation of a charging point in the building's garage as long as the condominium administration and the owner of the fraction are notified in writing, in the case of rented housing, writes the publication.
Quoted by the weekly, architect João de Sousa Rodolfo recalls that “from this year onwards, all residential buildings must have a charging station for electric vehicles per parking space”.

I wonder whether building that provide charging stations and allow the parking of EVs are also required to provide adequate safety precautions against almost unextinguishable fires by EVs. The latter have caused (in the UK) whole buildings to collapse.

Tom , where would responsibility lie in the event of an EV fire . Vehicle owner ,manufacturer, charge point manufacturer , installer , building constructor , building owner , mandating authority , ,,,,,,,,lawyers circling in eager anticipation of a massive new feeding frenzy not difficult to imagine , and at the tectonic pace of the Portuguese legal system .

Tom. If you are referring to the fire at Luton Airport's carpark where 1400 cars were destroyed. The fire was started in a moving diesel car as stated by the fire brigade. Lies were spread on the Internet that it was the fault of an electric vehicle. Electric vehicles are much less likely to catch fire than petrol or diesel vehicles.
