How much the state pays
The aid covers 50 % of the purchase and installation cost excluding VAT, up to a cap that depends on the station.
| Charging station | Cap |
|---|---|
| Basic station, installed by 31 December 2026 | 750 € |
| Smart station (OCPP 1.6 or later) | 1.200 € |
| Station compliant with EN ISO 15118-20:2022 | 1.200 € |
| Station compliant with EN ISO 15118-20:2022, invoiced in 2026 | 1.400 € |
| Shared smart charge management system in an apartment building | 50 %, up to 40.000 € per system |
Example: a smart station that costs 2.000 € excluding VAT installed gets 50 % = 1.000 €. At 3.000 € excluding VAT, the aid stops at the 1.200 € cap, or 1.400 € for an ISO 15118-20 station invoiced in 2026.
The eligible cost includes the station, the wiring from the electrical cabinet, the differential switch and circuit breaker, changes to the electrical cabinet and the impact protection for the station.
From 1 January 2027, every station must comply with EN ISO 15118-20:2022, the standard for bidirectional charging. Basic stations installed from that date get nothing.
