Over €100m was allocated in 2025 to support the continued transition to electric vehicles (EVs) which includes funding for EV grants and EV charging infrastructure, including zero emission vehicle take up by households and businesses. This underpins the Government's commitment to making electric vehicles accessible to all. Regarding 2026 funding, allocations have yet to be finalised.
The Government is fully committed to supporting the transition to zero-emission transport and the ambitious target to have 30% of private car fleet switched to electric by 2030.
Government’s aim is to create an optimum environment to keep up with demand for EV charging and make it possible for anyone who wants an EV to have one. We will continue to take a balanced approach, ensuring that our incentives and policy measures are both ambitious and deliverable within our current environment.
