Company Cars Charging@Home: Taxes, Law and Practice

Free Webinar

Tuesday, September 7, 2021 | 11:00am –12:00am Uhr CET | Webinar Language: English

Many are hoping that the electrification of fleets will provide the long-awaited boost to electromobility. So it's no wonder that there are also a large number of government subsidies and tax breaks in this area. Hybrid vehicles in particular are becoming increasingly popular as company cars - but fully electric vehicles are also on the rise. If the company car is also to be charged at home, the question arises under what conditions the employer can provide the wallbox free of charge and how the charging current will be reimbursed. This applies all the more if you live in an apartment building or condominium. Our legal experts Dr. Karla Klasen and Dr. Alexander Dlouhy from Osborne Clarke as well as Markus Emmert from the Bundesverband eMobilität will explain these topics and be available to answer questions.

During the webinar, participants can submit questions that will be answered by the experts during the Q&A session. Following the webinar, all registered persons will receive access to the recording of the webinar as well as the presentations of the speakers.

Off-grid solar systems are often the least expensive option for rural electrification. Solar home systems can power individual households, while mini-grids can supply entire villages. Each comes with its own advantages, disadvantages, and challenges. The aim of this session is to explore challenges as well as success stories. It takes well-functioning components such as battery systems, charge management and inverters to make projects successful. Proper system sizing, maintenance and repair management, as well as a robust financial concept are also necessary. If one of these elements is missing, the electrification will not be sustainable. This session will focus on the aspects mentioned above. The speakers will present successful and unsuccessful approaches and discuss what can be learned from them.
