The chart shows a continuing upward trend in the number of EVs and EV parking permits. The absolute figures also reflect the strength of the trend.
*This covers all vehicles that meet the legal conditions for obtaining a license plate marked "EL".

The chart shows an upward trend in the number of charging stations (EVSE), both slow (AC) and fast (DC). The availability of charging stations continues to grow, and relative to Prague's area, there is less than 1 km² per charging station.
*In 2022, the ratio of the sum of AC and DC EVSE points to the total number of EVSE points in Prague differs due to the trade secrets of one of the data providers.
**In 2022-2024, a retroactive adjustment was made due to incorrect data from one of the data providers.
***In 2025, the number of AC and DC EVSE points is estimated based on the known total number of available points, due to the trade secrets of one of the data providers.

The chart shows the number of charging sessions and the amount of energy drawn. Until 2025, fast charging (DC) was used by more customers each year than slow charging (AC). Thanks also to the ongoing renewal of public lighting, the charging infrastructure has in recent years expanded into Prague's large housing estates as well, where mainly slow (AC) chargers are installed. Their purpose is clear - to charge a vehicle while it is parked overnight, including directly on the street. In 2025, we therefore observe roughly the same number of charging cycles for both fast (DC) and slow (AC) chargers.

Prague shows a rising trend in the development of electromobility in public transport as well. This is reflected both in the conversion of suitable bus lines to trolleybus lines using partial trolleybuses, and in the purchase of new electric buses. The chart shows a significant increase in the transport performance of electric buses and trolleybuses in 2025, although electric buses and trolleybuses still account for only 1.4% of total annual transport performance.
*In 2021, there was a significant decline in demand from private contractors, which is why the mileage of e-buses in 2021 was about 2/3 lower than in the previous year.

In particular, the conversion of bus lines to trolleybus lines is significantly reflected in the total number of electrically powered vehicles, whether electric buses or trolleybuses. In 2025, nearly twice as many e-vehicles were running on Prague's streets as in the previous year.

Having sufficient, as up-to-date as possible, information is key for passengers to navigate the public transport system well. One way of doing this is by providing information on the actual departure time, not just the scheduled departure time. In Prague, this is ensured by a constantly growing network of digital information boards, which inform passengers at stops not only of the actual departure time of their connection, but also of various additional information, such as whether the connection is air-conditioned or its further direction of travel.

The Prague Resident Portal is a digital office that has made it possible, since 2020, to handle a range of common matters online without visiting a service counter in person. Its popularity has been growing steadily, and in 2025 the portal welcomed almost 1 million users. The portal keeps adding new features, and in 2025 it is possible to handle matters in up to 60 agendas.

The chart focuses on the number of interactions with visitors to Prague across individual communication channels and tracks the number of pieces of feedback. Gathering feedback from the city's visitors provides information on the strengths and weaknesses of tourism organization in the capital, and also provides input for the further development of the services offered.

The chart aims to illustrate the productivity of tourism, using indicators relating to tourism expenditure, broken down into expenditure by foreign visitors and expenditure by domestic visitors (tourists from the Czech Republic). From these indicators, one can further derive, for example, the ratio of the productivity of the two groups of tourists to the overall result. The data is presented in the format currently available - it serves to give an idea of the productivity of tourism, in whose overall result Prague has a significant share (according to a qualified estimate by the Czech Statistical Office, more than 30%; the data for individual regions is not quantified).

The chart tracks the total number of visitors to the City of Prague, broken down into domestic and foreign visitors. The chart presents these values in the context of the number of overnight stays of both groups of guests. The total number of overnight stays is based on available statistical data from collective accommodation facilities in Prague.
Sources: Czech Statistical Office
The chart compares the number of hotel-type rooms (rooms in 5* to 1* hotels and garni hotels) and the number of rooms in other accommodation facilities (guesthouses, campsites, chalet settlements, tourist hostels, and other collective accommodation facilities), and compares these figures in total with the number of beds in both of the above groups of accommodation facilities for the given year.

The Smart Prague Index yearbook has been published since 2017 by OICT, a city-owned company. Using specific measurable indicators and annual evaluation, the Smart Prague Index analyses Prague's development, tracks trends, summarises the capital city's achievements and serves as a valuable basis for its further development.
*All of the data used in the Smart Prague Index come from individual city organisations, Prague city districts and other partners who are responsible for their accuracy.
