Tax break?
Anyone installing a charging station at home can get a tax break until 31 August 2024. The tax break ranges from 45% to 15% of the expenditure, depending on the year the installation was paid for:
for installations paid from 1 September 2021 to 31 December 2021, the maximum tax break is €1,500 per charging station per taxpayer
for expenditures paid in 2022, the maximum tax break is €1,750 per charging station per taxpayer
for expenditures paid after 1 January 2023, the maximum tax break is €1,750 per uni-directional charging station and per taxpayer or €8,000 per bi-directional charging station and per taxpayer
It covers expenditures on the purchase in new condition of a charging station, its installation and the inspection of the installation.
Conditions
It’s important to bear in mind that there are conditions for the tax break:
The charging station must be installed in or in the immediate vicinity of the home
It must be an ‘intelligent charging station’ powered by green electricity and approved by a recognised certification body.
Investments by a co-owners’ association
Co-owners that contribute to the collective investment in charging stations benefit from the tax reduction provided the person also uses the facilities and lives in the building as a co-owner. A co-owner who rents out the property cannot deduct the expenditure from their tax return.
