Hello everyone,
since I am not an expert in this field and want to avoid making mistakes, I would like to know your opinion.
We have purchased a newly built house from a developer, and currently the electrician is working on the property. A high-voltage connection is planned for the garage. However, an electric or hybrid car is not planned within the next 1-2 years. Does it make sense to have a wall box installed right away because of the current incentives? At least that is what the electrician suggested.
Or is just running the cable enough for now (is there any funding for that)? How would you proceed?
Thanks for your advice.

At least until November for the increased subsidy.
No. KfW prohibits combining it with other funding programs.I skimmed through the text but didn’t find anything like that...
Is combining / double funding generally prohibited with KfW subsidies? Because BAFA partially allows combining...
So: Are you sure? (I assume your answer is "yes" and that you’re quoting the relevant text)

What do I need to understand about these points?
- Does the charging station have to be controllable? If so, the price will naturally be much higher than for a “basic” charging station...
- Do I have to provide an electricity contract proving that I use green energy? (Because I don’t... )

- Do I need to provide an electricity contract to prove that I use green energy? (Because I actually don’t... )Both questions have to be answered with “yes.” Otherwise, KfW wouldn’t specify these conditions.nordanney schrieb:

I’m not worried about the smart control feature either. There will be a list of eligible charging stations. Just choose from that. Since we already have solar panels, we’re getting a Type 2 charging station for free from the KfW.Similar topics
