CommunityBudapestWorkplace EV charge coalitionEmployees pushing for fleet grants and plug-in points The vállalati e-autó támogatási program helps firms buy electric cars and vans, but chargers in the car park matter as much as the purchase grant. Commuters who bike, car-share, or drive EVs can band together and ask HR to apply when the next call opens on palyazat.gov.hu, adding a rider: workplace charging for staff, not only fleet vehicles. What you can do - Green team at work: count how many staff would switch with two 22 kW sockets near the entrance - Union or works council: tie the grant application to a commute survey, show demand before management files - Neighbouring SMEs: pool a single application across a business park if your landlord shares parking How it works Grant sizes depend on battery capacity and company headcount; application windows change, check the live call before planning. Even between rounds, a signed staff petition often unlocks landlord-funded sockets faster than waiting for state money. Why it matters Clean commutes start where people already gather five days a week, the office car park. Source & repost Shared here so you can get inspired or find action already happening near you.
