The Ministry of the Economy is launching two new calls for projects aimed at encouraging companies to invest in charging infrastructure for electric vehicles. These calls have been open since 15 January 2026. The overall objective is to prevent gaps from emerging in the national network and to prepare for the gradual electrification of heavy transport.
The first call for projects, with a maximum budget of €7 million, is reserved for alternating current (AC) charging stations, mainly slow charging points up to 22 kW, suitable for urban, suburban, or areas close to shopping centers. Projects must include publicly accessible or private charging points and have a total charging capacity of at least 175 kilowatts. Selected companies may receive a subsidy covering up to 50% of their investment. This call for projects is open from 15 January to 15 June 2026.

Projects must include publicly accessible or private charging infrastructure and have a total charging capacity of at least 175 kilowatts. Selected companies may receive a subsidy covering up to 70% of their investment. This call is open from 15 January to 31 March 2026.
