The Lithuanian capital of Vilnius is to install more charging stations to cater for the increasing numbers of electric vehicles on its streets.

Officials are planning to install five new fast-charging stations by this autumn, where cars will be able to recharge in just 25 minutes.

‘Due to environmental problems, people are increasingly turning to electric cars. We see a great need for electric vehicle charging stations, the more that car-sharing companies are expanding the number of electric vehicles,’  said the deputy mayor of Vilnius, Linas Kvedaravičius.
