Aguilar del Alfambra opens for public consultation the municipal electric charging fee

The City Council of Aguilar del Alfambra has opened the public information process for the Fiscal Ordinance regulating the public price for the supply of electrical energy at municipal charging points, initially approved by the Plenary in the ordinary session of August 26, 2026. The announcement, with file number 2026-3345, is published in section I (Local Administration) of the Official Gazette of the Province of Teruel (BOPTE) no. 216, dated November 11, 2026. Interested parties have thirty business days to examine the file and submit any claims they deem appropriate.

Thirty business days and automatic approval

The period is counted from the day following the insertion of the announcement in the BOPTE. During this period, the file may be examined and claims may be filed against it; if none are formulated, the initial approval agreement will be understood as elevated to definitive without the need for a new plenary pronouncement.

Once the process is closed, the definitive text of the ordinance will be published in full in the Official Gazette of the Province. Until then, the specific tariff schedule is not known, as it appears in the file and not in the announcement: the official publication is limited to the initial approval agreement and the opening of the period for allegations.

What the regulation governs and whom it affects

The ordinance creates and regulates a public price —a figure distinct from a tax— for the supply of electrical energy intended for vehicle charging at municipal-owned facilities. Therefore, it affects:

• Electric vehicle users who use the municipality’s charging points.
• The deployment and management of the local charging infrastructure, by establishing the economic framework of the service.
• The management of payment, which in this family of ordinances is organized through digital platforms and mobile applications or contactless cards.

The announcement invokes articles 49 and 70.2 of Law 7/1985, of April 2, regulating the Bases of the Local Regime, in relation to article 56 of R.D.L. 781/1986, of April 18, and article 140.b) of Law 7/1999, of April 9, of Local Administration of Aragon.

Other municipalities have already set tariffs

The initiative adds to a sequence of similar regulations processed this year in the province, which allows for the anticipation of the tariff model per kilowatt hour consumed:

• Ababuj: ordinance definitively approved by plenary agreement on June 1, 2026, published as 2026-2502 in BOPTE no. 161, of August 25, 2026, with a rate of 0.30 €/kWh.
• Cubla: ordinance initially approved on April 27, 2026, exhibited in BOPTE no. 113, of June 17, 2026, and published as 2026-2475 in BOPTE no. 158, of August 20, 2026, with 0.30 €/kW.
• Alba del Campo: ordinance published as 2026-2670 in BOPTE no. 178, of September 17, 2026**, with 0.40 €/kW for semi-fast charging.

In these texts, municipal-owned vehicles are exempt from payment, the taxable event includes both the connection and consumption as well as the use of the public road and the infrastructure, and the tax liability arises upon requesting access to the service or when performing the recharge.

An administrative step with practical effects

The procedure in Aguilar del Alfambra is part of the usual calendar for the public exhibition of tax ordinances: initial approval in the plenary, publication of the announcement, a month for allegations, and full publication of the final text.

For residents and drivers passing through the municipality, the regulation will determine the cost of each recharge at municipal facilities and under which rules of use and billing the service is provided. For the City Council, it means organizing the economic regime of equipment destined to grow and establishing the reference with which its maintenance will be financed.
