They ensure from Velca that the private plan reverses the inefficiencies of the Moves by turning the aid into direct and immediate incentives to buy
The private sector is taking a step towards electrification given the inefficiencies of MOVES and the imminent entry into force of the
Low Emission Zones from 2023. So that it is no longer limited to investing and developing in product, but also in accessibility for the end consumer.
So much so that Velca has capitalized
4 million euros own resources for a private plan of direct incentives for the purchase of an electric vehicle. This plan, according to the initiators, is the answer to the limited background of MOVES, which, according to the Bank of Spain, in the second edition, the registrations of electric vehicles in Asturias, Madrid, Catalonia, the Balearic Islands and Navarre have only to do with at least one increase. percentage point.
The main reasons are:
the lack of informationthe excess of bureaucracy (about 15 documents to complete), the decentralization of aid, the need to anticipate the amount, the long wait to receive it and the subsequent taxation.
in words
from the CEO of Velca, Emilio Frojan “Electrification depends not only on the charging infrastructure, but also on making it accessible to the citizen’s wallet. It makes no sense to increase the allocation in MOVES III by EUR 400 million, if we ask drivers to anticipate their savings, that is, to fund it for a while and wait months to receive the aid.
The private plan presented by Velca converts the aid into direct and immediate purchase incentives, without declaring it to the Treasury and without paperwork in processing it.
That is, the driver
currently receives 1,100 euros in the case of a motorcycle, 600 euros if it is a moped and 300 euros if it is an “eBike”. And what’s more, they deliver the vehicle to your home, ready to drive, without having to travel.
Another fundamental point of this stimulus plan is that it broadens its scope because it targets everyone
the modalities of two electrified wheelsthat is, it includes not only a motorcycle, but also a moped and a bicycle, in any case, they are means of transport that can be driven with a B driving license, in the case of a motorcycle up to 125 cc.
From Velca, they take into account this fundamental aspect because the MOVES “suffers”
a broad view on mobilityas it is limited to the car and certain types of electric motorcycles«.
The company recalls that until October, according to ANESDOR, sales of motorcycles grew by almost 7%, and electric motorcycles in particular grew by more than 60%. However, the number of passenger car registrations fell by 7% in that period.
The ultimate goal of setting up a private MOVES plan, as is the case, is to help governments design future plans, focusing on
public-private cooperation. Velca’s executives explain that “if the government has a clear roadmap, companies will have a clearer picture of the implementation, especially through their knowledge of the market and the consumer.”
In this sense, it is proposed from Velca that:
future moves they can refocus the incentives and have the brands implement them and then do the accounting with the administration.
