PREpoint

PREpoint (stylised as PRE POINT) is the public electric-vehicle charging network operated by Pražská energetika, a.s. (PRE), one of the major energy utilities in the Czech Republic. The brand covers a network of public charging stations that PRE describes as numbering more than 920, with a stated focus on building and operating the fastest chargers available, including DC and ultra-fast (UFC) units being upgraded toward 400 kW output. PRE positions PREpoint as the leading charging network in Prague, the Czech capital, and says it holds the strongest coverage in the city while continuing to expand. The service is aimed at both households and businesses. Drivers can charge either on a one-off basis, typically initiated by scanning a QR code, or through a regular charging plan using a PRE chip card after selecting a tariff and signing a contract. PRE states that it has kept its charging prices unchanged for more than two years, with rates starting from 7 CZK per kWh, and that all electricity supplied through the PREpoint network comes from 100% renewable sources. A companion mobile app, PRE CHARGE, is available for iOS and Android and lets users locate stations, start charging sessions and review charging history. PREpoint is part of PRE's broader e-mobility offering, which sits alongside the group's traditional electricity and gas supply, technology services and e-shop. The network is a commercial brand rather than a separate listed company; it is operated within the PRE Group and benefits from the utility's existing customer base and infrastructure. Its identity is closely tied to Prague, where it claims the densest coverage, though the network extends to other locations in the Czech Republic. The brand competes with other Czech and international charging operators, differentiating itself through stable pricing, renewable electricity and a focus on high-power charging. Because PREpoint is a relatively young brand within a long-established utility, public information about its exact launch date, station count history and financials is limited. What is clear from PRE's own materials is the strategic direction: expand the number of stations, raise charging speeds, and maintain a simple, transparent pricing model for Czech EV drivers.

PREpoint is the public EV charging network brand of Pražská energetika, a.s. (PRE), a Czech energy utility based in Prague. PRE has historically been one of the main electricity suppliers in the Czech capital and its surrounding region, and like many European utilities it moved into e-mobility as electric vehicle adoption grew. The PREpoint brand was created to bundle PRE's public charging stations under a single customer-facing identity, complementing the group's electricity and gas supply business. Public information does not give a precise founding date for PREpoint, but PRE's own materials describe a network that has been operating long enough to keep charging prices unchanged for more than two years, with rates starting from 7 CZK per kWh. The network has grown to more than 920 charging stations, and PRE states that it is the largest operator in Prague by coverage. The company has also been upgrading its DC and ultra-fast charging (UFC) stations toward 400 kW output, reflecting a broader industry shift toward high-power charging along main routes and in cities. A key part of the brand's development has been its digital layer. PRE offers the PRE CHARGE mobile app for iOS and Android, allowing drivers to find stations, start and stop charging, and view their charging history. For regular users, PRE issues a chip card that works across the PREpoint network and, according to PRE, at other operators' stations as well, after the customer selects a tariff and signs a contract. One-off users can charge by scanning a QR code. PRE has also emphasised sustainability, stating that all electricity offered at PREpoint stations comes from 100% renewable sources. PREpoint operates within the PRE Group and is not a separately listed company. Its strategic direction, as described by PRE, is to expand the number of charging points, increase charging speeds, and maintain a simple and stable pricing structure. The brand's strongest association is with Prague, where it claims the densest network, but it also serves drivers elsewhere in the Czech Republic. As the EV market in Czechia continues to develop, PREpoint is positioned as one of the incumbent utility-backed charging networks competing with both local and international operators.
