State-funded purchase of 1,200 green trucks


Germany’s federal ministry for digital and transport (BMDV) is providing financial assistance for the conversion of HGVs to climate-friendly commercial vehicles.

 

The funding has so far enabled the purchase of more than 1,200 electric and hydrogen-powered vehicles and the installation of almost 1,500 charging points. This is shown by the number of approvals deriving from the first call for funding in 2021. A total of around 330 projects worth about EUR 190 million were approved.

 

According to the BMDV, companies are very interested in converting their fleets to clean drives. For the second call for funding - the deadline for applications ended in August - more than 1,600 applications for ecological commercial vehicles and special vehicles were submitted. (ben)
