The government has unlocked an additional series of aid for companies to encourage their investment in greener mobility.

The package stems from a collaboration between economy minister (LSAP) and energy minister (déi Gréng). It provides financial support to companies which have e-car charging stations--for private and public access--installed on their premises.

Members of parliament on 5 July  but it only came into force on 26 July after being officially published, an administrative step that usually occurs within a few days or weeks after a vote in the Chamber of Deputies.

Between 30 July and 30 September 2022, the ministries will call on companies to present their project to create charging stations--with a charging capacity of at least 175 kilowatts-- available to the public. The companies with the best proposals will see up to 50% of investments linked to the installation of the stations covered by a subsidy. Accessibility for the public will play a part in the selection of propositions.  

The second aid presented on 27 July targets the electrification of mobility in SMEs, which can ask for a coverage of 50% of the expense linked to its charging stations. This can go up to €40,000 total per company. Connecting to the country’s electric network can also be covered--up to 60% and maximum €60,000--by the state.
