📋 Tender Overview
With the fourth call for proposals in the funding program "Publicly accessible charging infrastructure for electric vehicles in Bavaria 2.0", the Bavarian Ministry of Economic Affairs is continuing to invest heavily in the expansion of the charging infrastructure in the Free State. Bavaria's Minister of Economic Affairs Hubert Aiwanger: "Bavaria is at the forefront when it comes to e-charging infrastructure. The previous calls have all been a great success. We are not resting on our laurels and are providing a further 4 million euros for the fourth round this year."
In absolute terms, Bavaria ranks first in terms of charging infrastructure compared to other federal states. One in five public charging points in Germany is installed in Bavaria. There are currently around 23,554 publicly accessible charging points in the Free State, including 19,220 AC normal charging points (82 percent) and around 4,334 DC fast charging points (18 percent). The number of charging processes carried out at public charging points in Bavaria again reached a new high in the first quarter of 2024.
The new funding call will be open from August 1, 2024 to August 30, 2024. During this period, applications can be submitted for the procurement and construction of publicly accessible charging infrastructure, including the necessary grid connection. Aiwanger emphasizes: "We are not resting on our laurels when it comes to expanding the charging infrastructure. While the federal government is increasingly withdrawing from funding publicly accessible charging infrastructure for electric cars, we continue to strongly support the expansion in Bavaria."
Applicants can again be natural and legal persons. Similar to the last time, this call is intended to give incentives to smaller municipalities in particular to submit an application. At least one fast charging point or at least four normal charging points must be set up per location.
The Bavarian funding program “Publicly accessible charging infrastructure for electric vehicles in Bavaria 2.0” is managed by the Electromobility Competence Center at Bayern Innovativ GmbH.
