Federal funding program: Up to €2,000 subsidy per new e-charging parking space

From April 15, 2025, the Federal Ministry of Transport (BMV) will be funding the expansion of charging infrastructure in multi-party buildings. The purchase and installation of systems that are not publicly accessible will be supported. The aim is to accelerate electromobility. Charging facilities should be available where people live. SWK Stadtwerke Kaiserslautern is the local energy partner for implementation.

Why the subsidy is worthwhile for property owners:

Securing the future & maintaining the value of the property – charging infrastructure is now expected. It is a standard feature of modern residential complexes.
Cost-effectiveness – The subsidy reduces your own investment and shortens the amortization period.
Structure & order – A centralized solution prevents expensive and inefficient technical proliferation.
High operational reliability – thanks to uniform load management standards.
Attractiveness of your rental property – “Charging at home” is a major gain in comfort and is increasingly becoming a decision criterion when choosing a home.
Responsibility for the future – charging infrastructure provides a relevant basis for CO₂ reduction.
