Tax advantages and climate bonus: Coalition surprises with savings plans!

In the middle of the current coalition negotiations in Austria, there were surprising innovations that affect the topic of environment and e-mobility in particular. The FPÖ finance spokesman Hubert Fuchs and ÖVP club chairman August Wöginger informed on Thursday that the climate bonus will be canceled while the climatic kit continues. However, the free climaticket for less than 18 year olds is abolished. These decisions, as with Today. Special attention is paid to the tax advantages for electric cars, which should also be eliminated, which promises a saving of over 50 million euros.

charging infrastructure in Germany is growing rapidly

These developments in Austria could have significant influences on the acceptance of electric cars, especially compared to the latest advances in Germany. The Federal Network Agency lists over 145,000 charging stations there, which is a clear improvement. According to a report by focus.de , the number of load columns rose by around 45,000 last year. This means that an average of 17.3 electric cars now share a public charging point, compared to 21 electric cars in the previous year.

It is particularly noteworthy that most charging stations in urban areas are concentrated, where the need is highest. Although the costs for the expansion of the charging infrastructure urge, VDA President Hildegard Müller underpins the need that the expansion of the charging stations must be quickly promoted. In terms of the dynamic development of the charging column network, Germany could react more efficiently to the increasing number of electric vehicles, while in Austria the political measures to save green technologies may make switching to e-mobility more difficult.
