Construct more charging stations for electric vehicles

E-Mobility & Charging Infrastructure

• Quick capacity-oriented network expansion for the "new charging" and expansion of the charging infrastructure for alternative drives (electric, (fast) charging stations).
• Create conditions for faster ramp-up of e-mobility through rapid expansion of the charging infrastructure.
• Strengthening of consumer protection in e-mobility (kWh-exact billing, cross-border charging without additional costs etc.).
• An evaluation and further development of the subsidy program according to EBIN (Emission-free Buses and Infrastructure). In the medium and long term, a secure
  framework should be created for the financing of the legally prescribed decarbonization in public bus transport

Establish more charging stations for electric vehicles

• To facilitate the transition from combustion engines to electric vehicles, more EV charging stations are needed. These should be powered exclusively by renewable energy, be barrier-free, and evenly distributed across all regions. Legal frameworks for charging stations in existing buildings must be created, and charging stations should be mandatory in new buildings. Plugs and software, as well as other charging modalities, must be standardized and brand-independent. At places with long parking durations (e.g., commuter train stations, company parking lots), it should be checked whether the use of slow charging stations, for example with photovoltaics, makes sense. The expansion should not be based on current car use, but on future car use in ten to 15 years to avoid lock-in effects. The charging stations should be designed for later conversion to sharing stations.
