“Within the framework of the regulation, we made the charging unit compulsory in shopping malls and public parking lots. We also carry out this process according to the number of vehicles in the mall and the number of pieces in the parking lot. When we combine this opportunity with the navigation application, our smart car will be able to move to every point of our country by entering from Edirne. We have to do this application (charging unit for electric car) in a number of parking lots. I hope we will prepare and publish our regulation that will make this mandatory. The current regulation requires this already. We have to do this application. Maybe we will reduce the number, increase it, look at it, but electric charging stations will be mandatory. ”
