Tax exemption for the use of public space
In addition to this incentive for local authorities, the French government also encourages private operators to build and maintain EV charging points by offering a tax exemption for the use of public space. The goal is to provide adequate infrastructure on the entire territory and not just in cities. The law passed in July 2014 and offers tax exemption for any operators which build, maintain, or operate public EV charging infrastructure as long as the charging points are located in at least two regions. French regulators hope to support the development of charging infrastructure without putting the financial burden on local authorities.
