June 2026 | EV Charging Project Case Study
As Costa Rica continues accelerating its transition toward sustainable transportation, the demand for efficient and affordable EV charging stations is growing rapidly.
Recently, a Penoda 21kW DC EV Charger was successfully installed at a commercial parking facility in Costa Rica, providing fast and reliable charging services for a BYD Seagull electric vehicle.
This project highlights the increasing adoption of DC EV chargers across Costa Rica and demonstrates how compact charging solutions can help businesses meet the needs of the country's expanding EV market.

Costa Rica is recognized as one of the most environmentally friendly countries in Latin America. With more than 95% of electricity generated from renewable energy sources, the country provides an ideal environment for electric vehicle adoption.
Government incentives, tax benefits, and long-term carbon neutrality goals continue to encourage the use of electric vehicles and the deployment of EV charging infrastructure nationwide.
As more EV models enter the Costa Rican market—including BYD, Tesla, Hyundai, and Nissan—the need for reliable commercial EV charging solutions continues to increase every year.
Key market drivers include:
Growing EV ownership
Expansion of public charging infrastructure
Increasing tourism-related EV demand
Government support for clean transportation
Rising interest from commercial property owners
These factors make Costa Rica one of the most promising EV charging markets in Central America.
