Budimex lowers prices for the summer: 1.8 zł/kWh for DC, 1.56 zł/kWh for AC. Some charging stations, mainly in Pomerania and lake regions

Budimex announced that starting today, Friday, June 26, through Monday, August 31, 2026, it will reduce charging prices at 88 AC and DC charging stations in 31 locations. The promotion applies to 41 DC charging points and 47 AC charging points. The new rates are 1.8 PLN/kWh for DC and 1.56 PLN/kWh for AC.

Lower Charging Costs at Budimex Stations

To use the operator’s stations, you need the Elocity app (Android HERE, iPhone/iOS HERE). It allows filtering the charging network by certain operators; Budimex is even marked with a red “Promotion” label. However, the app does not show us collectively which locations have discounted prices. After a quick glance at the map, we noticed that the main routes for applying the new rates were those along the coast or to lakes in northern Poland.

So here’s the breakdown: on Wrocław’s ring road, a 90 kW charger costs 2.45 zł/kWh, similar to the rate in Leszno near S5 (2.66 zł/kWh). However, a 120 kW charger in Czaplink on DK20 or another 120 kW charger in Koszalin near S11 and S6 offers a promotional rate of 1.8 zł/kWh. We’ll pay the summer rate of 1.8 zł/kWh even at the latest 400 kW charger in Banin (S7, near Gdańsk, Szczecin, and Wrocław). It’s also cheaper in Poznań, Gorzów Wielkopolski, and Bydgoszcz. Lower rates are available at AC charging stations in Pisz (city), Augustów, and Szarłotka as well.

In southern Poland, cities such as Jakuszyce, Chorzów, Krosno, and Rzeszów stand out. Nevertheless, before starting the process of recharging your vehicle, we recommend checking the rates in the app, as the same city may have several different pricing schemes (see: Wrocław).

It’s worth noting that just a few months ago, Budimex shut down most of the charging stations in Bydgoszcz. These mainly referred to poles taken over from Enea, with 26 AC charging points being discontinued. This is sad news because the devices installed by operators under the first version of the Electromobility Act were well located and typically numbered in the dozens across large cities. But as reported by the Metropolia Bydgoska portal, maintaining these poles proved unprofitable given their usage levels.
