        MOVALT Vehicles Plan/ Promotion of Alternative Vehicles

        …providing aid for their purchase by regulating the granting of direct subsidies. For this purpose, the aid programme for the purchase of alternative-energy vehicles was approved: the MOVALT Vehicles Plan. The initial funding for this programme was a maximum budget of €20 million, with a limit of €600,000 for electric motorbikes (L3e, L4e, L5e). The aid included will be managed by the IDAE (Institute for Energy Diversification and Saving) and will be allocated to incentivising the purchase of vehicles propelled by autogas (LPG), compressed natural gas (CNG) or liquefied natural gas (LNG), petrol-gas bifuel or fuel cell…

        EV Infrastructure Charging Program (ADVENIR)

        In 2016, the ADVENIR program was launched to allow the financing of private charging infrastructure in company car parks and in apartment buildings. The principle is to oblige the energy companies to finance energy savings by obtaining a certificate. These companies can carry out the energy saving measures themselves, purchase certificates from the non-obligated ones, or pay a surtax to the State. The initiative complements the 30 % tax credit on the acquisition of charging systems for individuals. It also complements the ADEME financing scheme targeting the installation of charging stations open to the public. As part of its renewal…

When calculating energy savings, the average value of the energy requirement for the original state of the building is used (based on the year of construction and the technical standards valid at that time for the given building category). The average value for the original state of the building is the value that corresponds to the upper limit of energy class D (Decree of the Ministry of the Interior of the Slovak Republic No. 364/2012 Coll.).

        Pilot program 'Einsparzaehler'

        …scheme provides financial incentives for companies to implement innovative pilot projects aiming on improving the energy efficiency of their industrial, commercial or residential customers by means of applying digital technologies. Projects are meant to allow for a measurement and display of energy consumption patterns.

         

        In a second step, advice on how to improve the efficiency should be provided. Finally projects should enable a before-and-after measurement of energy use after the implementation of efficiency measures. Ideally projects include the development and demonstration of software solutions for smart energy measurement solutions. The incentive level partially depends on achieved energy savings.
