en.Wedoany.com Reported - The Government of the Balearic Islands recently announced that the availability rate of the MELIB public electric vehicle charging network on Ibiza has risen to 86.5%. This data was published by the Balearic Institute of Energy (IBE), which is affiliated with the Ministry of Enterprise, Self-Employment and Energy. Currently, the island's charging infrastructure is equipped with 66 charging stations and 163 connection points distributed across the island, of which 137 connection points are operational.
IBE stated that this improvement is attributed to the gradual deployment of the public charging network. The charging stations are located across five municipalities on Ibiza, with equipment provision and availability varying due to differences in maintenance investment. Among them, the municipality of Ibiza has 20 charging stations and 40 connection points; Sant Antoni de Portmany has 5 charging stations and 10 connection points; Sant Joan de Labritja also has 5 charging stations and 10 connection points; Sant Josep de sa Talaia concentrates 16 charging stations and 60 connection points, the highest number of connections in a single municipality on the island; and Santa Eulària des Riu has 14 charging stations and 29 charging points.
The municipalities of Sant Joan de Labritja, Sant Josep de sa Talaia, and Santa Eulària des Riu have the highest levels of charging station availability. These three municipalities have signed comprehensive risk maintenance agreements with IBE, which are voluntarily joined by each local government. This agreement is part of the emergency plan promoted by the Government of the Balearic Islands to improve the public charging network, aiming to enhance equipment operability through preventive and corrective maintenance, as well as a more flexible incident response mechanism.
The MELIB network currently has over 1,000 charging points across the four islands of Mallorca, Menorca, Ibiza, and Formentera. The network's development relies on collaboration between the government and public and private entities, aiming to expand the coverage of electric vehicle charging infrastructure in the archipelago. Users can find charging points, check real-time availability, and manage the charging process through the MELIB mobile application, which also provides a 24-hour incident response service. The Government of the Balearic Islands continues to update and modernize public charging equipment to improve the user experience and enhance the service reliability of the MELIB network.
