Summary and headline written by AI from the source article. How we work
From noon on September 22, people in Italy could apply for a grant from the Ministry of Enterprises and Made in Italy to help cover the cost of installing private electric vehicle charging stations.
Invitalia, an agency of the Italian government, manages the program on behalf of the ministry. The program provides funding to cover 80% of costs for buying and installing charging equipment, up to 1,500 euros per individual.
For installations in common areas of apartment buildings, the grant increases to a maximum of 8,000 euros. Minister of Enterprises and Made in Italy Adolfo Urso signed a directive outlining the procedures and rules for the “Home Charging Bonus,” following a plan established in June. The Italian government allocated 68 million euros to the program, which will run until 2030, to support both consumers and the Italian manufacturing sector.
Minister Urso stated that 54% of new generation charging infrastructure installed in Italy is produced domestically, meaning the investment supports Italian industry and employment.
