Free parking
On-street parking in Kongsberg is normally free in the evening, at night and on Sundays and public holidays — but the charging hours are set by the municipality and shown on the sign, so always check the signs. Car parks and garages usually charge around the clock. The most reliable free options are park-and-ride sites and time-limited parking-disc spaces.

EV charging and parking
Follow the signs at each facility for charging and parking terms.
Electric and hydrogen cars now normally pay the ordinary charge on municipal parking. There is no national free-or-discount rule — each municipality decides for itself whether to grant an exemption (Parking Regulations § 34), and more and more charge the full price. Check locally.
The national EV rules (charging bay vs. parking space, cross-parking, why the price varies) are on the EV parking page.
Disabled parking
People with reduced mobility and a parking permit – follow the signs at the municipal spaces in Kongsberg.
The national disabled-parking rules (what the card gives you, applying, double time) are on the disabled parking page.
