Under pressure from ecological organisations and the increasingly frequent public protests as well as voters, the German government has decided to go ahead with more drastic solutions to reduce carbon dioxide emissions in the country. The decisions taken under Mrs Merkel initially concern the car industry. Starting in 2023, the financial incentives given by the government to buy an electric car under 40,000 euros will be further strengthened.
As disincentive for the purchase of a conventional vehicle will gradually increase the price of petrol and diesel, in the first phase from 3 minutes per litre. The overall programme of the actions of Germany costs EUR 54 billion and also includes the upgrading of the railway network and the improvement of homes in various ways in order to become less energy intensive.
